Hi, in JOGL2 there is an issue with creating a TextureData. TextureData for some reason requires the GL 
context to be available. But the whole point of having TextureData was to separate texture preparation 
from the GL context. 

You can see for instance in the class AWTTextureData.java one method requires an open GL context 
simply to determine the GLProfile.

GLProfile glp = GLContext.getCurrentGL().getGLProfile();
if (glp.isGL2()) { ... }

So, calling a method via the TextureIO class such as:

TextureIO.newTextureData(myFile, false, null);

will throw this exception:

Exception in thread "main" javax.media.opengl.GLException: No OpenGL context current on this thread
