Any workaround for Lion OpenGL 3.2 Support?

[Hiura]

No prob.

But it's odd. Regarding Apple's OGL capabilities the supported context are 2.1 or 3.2. There's nothing in-between.

What is your Mac configuration ?

Hello there,

As I'm also seeking a 3.2 context on Mac OS X, I tried the workaround mentioned by Hiura:

just add the following code into sf::priv::SFContext::createContext (src/SFML/Window/OSX/SFContext.mm:150)

and rebuild the Window library... but I still get a 2.1 context, is there anyone who made this work successfully?

Are you sure that the context settings of your sf::Window or sf::Context are set to use 3.2 ?

[golgoth]

Yes, I'm very sure! I'm using a Hackintosh with a Geforce GTX 690 so we might have a problem there but GLview says it's 3.2 capable.

Most probably. Sorry, I can't you much.

Any idea how I could track the 3.2 context issue, as when it will be implemented officially?

All useful information related to this is on github here : https://github.com/SFML/SFML/issues/84

Would have been faster to fix the issue on the spot than writing the ticket... go mantognini go!

Please avoid post like this one in the future! We try to create a nice community here... Your sarcasm only hurts and is in no way helpful for making SFML better.

Also, you are wrong... read the issue's description once more.

Hiura, you are right, I see how it could be interpreted. My apologies if I hurt anyone.

That said, I didn't see that limitation coming and it sets me back a great deal. I hope it will be addressed sooner then later.  I'd be willing to test any work made in that direction if that could help.
