Title: sf::Shader::isAvailable() breaks asset use
Post by: DCurro on May 05, 2014, 12:53:33 am

I have not done anything with shaders yet.  I merely call

sf::Shader::isAvailable()

If I remove/don't use the call, everything looks like this:

If I use the call, everything looks like this:

Remember, I am only using any sf::Shader stuff once, and it's with the sf::Shader::IsAvailable().

Using OSX, Intel i7 all the ram in the world, with the best graphics card that comes with a new Macbook pro.

I moved the query after the RenderWindow was created and it solved the problem.  I suspected that this call might have required a GLContext to have been setup.

Thanks anyways!  Hopefully this helps anyone else who has had this problem.

It does create a context if there's none. Can you please provide a complete and minimal code that reproduces the problem?
