Just flagging that the good folks at JOGL got a 2.5 release out!

Whoa! That's great news, since we're using a custom build at the moment, and it'd be great to replace it. (Fingers crossed that it has the necessary fixes we've patched in.)

It would be nice to also switch to use the jogamp-fat.jar:

https://jogamp.org/deployment/archive/rc/v2.5.0/fat/

Let me explain why, If you have a project in (eclipse / vscode / ...):

C:\Users\clank\Desktop\some_project

And I have the jar files that come with processing in: C:\Users\clank\Desktop\some_project\libs\processing

jars

Then when running you get the following error:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Can't load library: C:\Users\clank\Desktop\some_project\natives\windows-amd64\gluegen_rt.dll

The fix would be to move the OS specific folders to a folder called natives in the root of the project. This is not very nice however, and it's much prefered if they can live in the lib folder.

Using jogamp-fat.jar fixes this.
