OpenGL under GIMP ??

Hi all!
This is my first post to the list and I want to know if its possible to use OpenGL under GIMP.
I need to do this because I am creating a plugin that will open some 3D formats. I made a program in OpenGL to do this but the problem is how to integrate this program in a plugin.
My idea is:
1 Open the selected file with my program (wich is in the plugin) in a "preview window"
2 Select the visualization (angle,size,...) 3 Pass the rendered image to the GIMP

The problem is that when I try to starts the glux the plugin crashes. Does anyone know how to do this??
I use mesa and GLUT for the OpenGL an the plugin is for GIMP 1.2.

Thanks.

GIMP doesn't use OpenGL but of course a GIMP plug-in can use whatever library it wants to use as long as it's possible to integrate it with the GLib main loop.

Try GtkGLExt. It's at http://gtkglext.sourceforge.net
