\par
This sample demonstrates the concept of "immediate mode" rendering, which was introduced in OpenGL 1.0.\par
\par
Immediate mode is the simplest way to render geometry in OpenGL. It is also the slowest by far, which makes it unsuitable for applications concerned about performance.\par
\par
Please note that immediate mode rendering is no longer supported in OpenGL 3.1 or higher.\par

\b\fs28 Implementation\par
\b0\fs22\par
Immediate mode rendering takes place within a GL.Begin()-GL.End() region. GL.Begin() takes a BeginMode parameter than marks the kind of primitives to emit (points, lines, triangles, quads); GL.Vertex, GL.Normal, GL.Color, GL.TexCoords emit the specified vertex attribute; GL.End() marks the end of the immediate mode region.\par

The DrawCube method shows how to render a simple, colored cube using immediate mode.\par
