Window / Re: How to create a window with debugging context?

« on: March 18, 2025, 04:41:47 pm »

I found the problem .
It was that in a project with SFML I use advanced shaders that access transform matrices from GL_UNIFORM_BUFFER.
In the GLFW project, on the other hand, I was using shaders where the matrices were sent directly to the shader program every iteration of the game loop by calling glUniformMatrix4fv.
It was calling this function with the shaders disabled that caused the debug callback to trigger and I would get error messages.
Thank you for your help!

I don't use the sfml-graphics module, I don't even compile it. My CMakeLists.txt:

...
set(SFML_BUILD_GRAPHICS OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
set(SFML_BUILD_AUDIO OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
set(SFML_BUILD_NETWORK OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
...

I also use glad to initialize OpenGL functions on my own. I am probably missing checking and initializing some OpenGL extension

Thank you for your reply.
No, that didn't solve the problem. Example: with GLFW, activating the debug context, and calling glUseProgram(0); (turning off the shaders altogether), I get debug output about it as an error. With SFML - only warnings not related to this error at all (buffers state and so on).

I set sf::ContextSettings like this:
    sf::ContextSettings settings;
    settings.majorVersion = 4;
    settings.minorVersion = 6;
    settings.depthBits = 24;
    settings.stencilBits = 8;
    settings.antialiasingLevel = 4;
    settings.attributeFlags = sf::ContextSettings::Core | sf::ContextSettings::Debug;

Window / How to create a window with debugging context?

When using the GLFW library, for example, a debug context can be created with a single call:

glfwWindowHint(GLFW_OPENGL_DEBUG_CONTEXT, GL_TRUE);

This is necessary for glDebugMessageCallback to work correctly (I use OpenGL version 4.6 (core profile) without plugging in the sfml-graphics module, defining the sf::ContextSettings myself).
Callback does not work for error level messages, although with GLFW everything works. I suspect that this is due to extensions that need to be plugged in independently (namely GL_KHR_debug). How do I do this correctly? It is very convenient to work with SFML, I would not like to go back to GLFW because of such trifles.

Feature requests / Re: Does SFML support the Vulkan API on Android?

That was my mistake though, it means I was trying to use sf::RenderWindow, and I should use sf::WindowBase (my first attempt to render a triangle using Vulkan in Android Studio with SFML). Well, got it, thanks a lot for the prompt reply!

Feature requests / Does SFML support the Vulkan API on Android?

« on: January 26, 2024, 08:06:08 am »

Good afternoon  . My question is voiced in the title. I built a test example with Vulkan on Windows, everything is clear there and does not cause any questions. But how are things with support in Android? I have not found any information about it in free search and on the forum. I apologize if I searched badly and this topic is duplicated, in which case please kick me in the right direction
