An API for inspecting OpenGL contexts may be useful for games or applications that need information about the system. At the moment InspectGL only produces JSON formatted report files and does not provide an API for direct use in code.

At the moment we simply query Java's system properties to get abstract os info. This makes little sense and the resulting data can (and should!) be completely platform-dependent. (for each OS the info should be writen the respectively named json object).

This requires interpreters of the data to handle each platform seperately, but that is obvious and makes sense.

Through JNI/JNA, OS functions can provide extensive information about the system. In many cases, when debugging an application for example, this information is way more useful than generic abstract stuff
