I am running the VLC on Linux and use the command line. I've tried on
GDB, none of OpenGL functions were available. Is the opengl.c in
modules/video_outeput used by VLC? Could you please point me which
files of the OpenGL functions are used by VLC?

I am learning VLC source code, and I hope to join VLC developing
contribution when I am ready.


Thank you.
