General / Weird crash in glDrawArrays

« on: January 19, 2012, 08:16:38 pm »

Oh, then I have some more questions.

1. Why?
2. Do I need to do it once or every frame?
3. Are there more opengl settings I need to set to make it act as if it's a new context?
4. Is there a way to avoid having to set them?

General / Weird crash in glDrawArrays

« on: January 18, 2012, 09:51:35 pm »

Hello,
I am getting a crash with SFML from current git HEAD on this code: http://sprunge.us/BcDG

Backtrace:

Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.
Reason: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at address: 0x0000000000000000
0x0000000101bab554 in gleRunVertexSubmitImmediate ()

#6  0x0000000100001815 in main () at src/DrawCube.cpp:67

Happens on win/linux/mac.
Did I do something wrong or did I stumble upon a bug?
I tried running the same Draw function in GLFW and it worked.

General discussions / New global inputs in SFML 2

It is just this issue which is more complicated to achieve, in general the new input system is much cleaner.

The most common case got a lot more complicated to make it "cleaner"?
I can't see any common use case where I would want to get the keyboard state while the window is unfocused. (except for a keylogger).

Keeping track of the window focus seems like the easiest way of doing the common case. Perhaps providing a window.HasFocus() method would make it simple again.

General discussions / Save SFML Wikipedia page

« on: June 08, 2011, 01:14:19 am »

The wikipedia entry for SFML has been marked considered for deletion, because it doesn't have any references and is not considered "notable".
Does anyone know about any good references, books, projects that uses it etc. that could convince them otherwise?

SFML projects / [sf3d] a project for 3D rendering

« on: June 08, 2011, 12:52:55 am »

Nice! It looks a lot like my personal helper classes. Maybe I'll contribute
Did you consider using AssImp for loading 3d meshes?

@Jallen: What is more minimalistic than SFML? I wouldn't say SDL is simpler to use than SFML.

@Nexus: IMO I find it fascinating to have something so simple you can keep the whole code in your head

General discussions / SDL vs. SFML

« on: June 07, 2011, 11:00:37 pm »

I have used SDL for a long time, before I found SFML.
Actually, I made a wrapper for SDL in C++, to make it easier to use, which looked a lot like a small part of SFML.
