Great tutorials. The opengl version testing fails with crypitc errors on some linux systems. If I just try to run the tutorial, I get this:
X Error of failed request: GLXBadFBConfig
Major opcode of failed request: 153 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 34 ()
Serial number of failed request: 34
Current serial number in output stream: 33
It might be helpful to check the versions before switching to the 3,3 context. Something like this:
#define add_test 1
#ifdef add_test
glutCreateWindow("test");
glutFullScreen();
glload::LoadFunctions();
int major_version = glload::GetMajorVersion();
printf("OpenGL version supported by this platform (%d): \n", glload::GetMajorVersion());
if (major_version < 3)
{
printf("Main version too low, Exiting");
exit(1);
}
else
{
printf("Continuing");
}
#endif
before
glutInitContextVersion (3, 3);
gives a much clearer error.
Thanks,
James
