OpenGL not drawing in Linux [closed] - c++

Closed. This question needs debugging details. It is not currently accepting answers.
Edit the question to include desired behavior, a specific problem or error, and the shortest code necessary to reproduce the problem. This will help others answer the question.
Closed 4 years ago.
Improve this question
I have been trying to fix this for days, but haven't come anywhere other then replacing sfml with glfw.
I tried using sfml first with OpenGL, but it didn't draw. That's why I tried using glfw instead.
There is no errors from the glsl files nor the main.cpp file.
This code (but less modified, because of replacing sfml with glfw) actually works on my other Windows PC.
Now I'm using Linux because my other PC needs a motherboard replacement.
Changing the color of the "background" works with glClearColor but drawing doesn't.
This program is supposed to have a cube that rotates and have textures.
I'm actually learning OpenGL atm.
I compiled and ran the program within the terminal instead of codeblocks.
Not that it would really help but just giving out the info.
Thank you for any help :)

Your code shouldn't really work on a conforming GL implementation. Adding glGetError() as #HolyBlackCat sugggested will result in a couple of errors, for example, you are using deprecated GL calls like glEnableClientState(), glLoadIdentity(), and so on - which all are not available in a core profile.
Actually I would not recommend adding glGetError() calls. Since you use GL 4.5, you can directly use a debug context. You will get human-readbale text messages for every error that occurs (and some more or less helpful hints beyond that).
One of the main issues I'm seeing in your code is this one:
glGenVertexArrays(0, &vao);
You are actually rendering without VAOs - which are mandatory in core profiles. Asking the GL to create zero VAOs won't get you anything, and then just binding some uninitialized variable as VAO isn't a good idea either.

modern opengl textured pyramid

I think am missing something when drawing the textured pyramid. I can't get it to work properly since I am not good with 3d modern OpenGL. Somehow, I managed to draw a cube but seems am going wrong with the pyramid. I want the four sides to have 0.5(top), 0.0(left), 1,0 (right). and the bottom to be 0,1 (top left), 1,1 (top right), 0,0 (bottom left) and 1,0 (bottom right). I need these coordinates since am only getting flunky images with my coordinate. Any help would be appreciated.
here is my code with the vertices of a cube that I had created earlier and was running well.

I recommend to define a structure type for the attribute tuples:
struct TAttributeTuple
{
glm::vec3 v;
glm::vec2 uv;
};
Define the 5 corner points of the pyramid:
(Your explanation of the points is a bit unclear, so I am not sure if the points are according to your specification. Possibly you've modify them.)
glm::vec3 top( 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f );
glm::vec3 p01( -0.1f, 0.0f, 1.0f );
glm::vec3 p11( 1.1f, 0.0f, 1.0f );
glm::vec3 p00( 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f );
glm::vec3 p10( 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f );
Setup the array of vertex attributes:
TAttributeTuple vertices[]
{
{ p00, glm::vec2(0.0f, 0.0f) },
{ p10, glm::vec2(1.0f, 0.0f) },
{ p11, glm::vec2(1.0f, 1.0f) },
{ p00, glm::vec2(0.0f, 0.0f) },
{ p11, glm::vec2(1.0f, 1.0f) },
{ p01, glm::vec2(0.0f, 1.0f) },
{ p00, glm::vec2(0.0f, 0.0f) },
{ p10, glm::vec2(1.0f, 0.0f) },
{ top, glm::vec2(0.5f, 1.0f) },
{ p10, glm::vec2(0.0f, 0.0f) },
{ p11, glm::vec2(1.0f, 0.0f) },
{ top, glm::vec2(0.5f, 1.0f) },

The shaders doesn't compile. GLSL is case sensitive. The version qualifier has to be #version rather than #Version:
#define GLSL(Version, Source) "#Version " #Version "\n" #Source
#define GLSL(Version, Source) "#version " #Version "\n" #Source
I recommend to check for compile and link errors and to add an error logging.
Compile errors can be get by glGetShaderiv / glGetShaderInfoLog:
e.g.
#include <vector>
void UCompileShader( GLuint shader )
{
glCompileShader( shader );
GLint status;
glGetShaderiv( shader, GL_COMPILE_STATUS, &status );
if ( status == GL_FALSE )
{
GLint logLen;
glGetShaderiv( shader, GL_INFO_LOG_LENGTH, &logLen );
std::vector< char >log( logLen );
GLsizei written;
glGetShaderInfoLog( shader, logLen, &written, log.data() );
std::cout << "compile error:" << std::endl << log.data() << std::endl;
}
}
Link errors can be get by glGetProgramiv / glGetProgramInfoLog:
e.g.
void ULinkShader( GLuint program )
{
glLinkProgram( program );
GLint status;
glGetProgramiv( program, GL_LINK_STATUS, &status );
if ( status == GL_FALSE )
{
GLint logLen;

Updating old matrix with new one using glUniformMatrix4fv()?

I have an issue updating the old matrix with the new one, as I am transitioning from WebGL to OpenGL, it started to get daunting when I wanted to translate the object with keys actions, the issue is that when I want to do the new translation, the new matrix should be updated and the data supplied to the vertex shader(uniform u_matrix) should be changed too, but it doesn't.
To showcase the problem, I made it simpler, I'm drawing once with a translation matrix and after sleep(2), I'm drawing once again but with a different translation matrix and sleep another 2 seconds to see the result, the problem is that the matrix is not updated at all at the second phase and there is no change at all.
The matC.translate(nb1, nb2, nb2) works well by returning a pointer to the first value of 16' value 1D array stored on stack.

In WebGL it works perfectly:

gl.drawArrays(gl.TRIANGLES, 0, whateverNumber);

What I am doing wrong? I'm using GLSL version 1.3...?
EDIT:
class Matrix {
public:
Matrix() {};
static float * translation(float x, float y, float z) {
static float tab[16] = {
1, 0, 0, 0,
0, 1, 0, 0,
0, 0, 1, 0,
x, y, z, 1
};
return tab;
}
}
The static initializer only runs once, not each time through the function. You can switch to std::array & assign new values each time through:
class Matrix
{
public:
float* translation( float x, float y, float z )
{
static std::array< float, 16 > tab;
tab =
{
1, 0, 0, 0,
0, 1, 0, 0,
0, 0, 1, 0,
x, y, z, 1
};
return tab.data();
}
};
Or use GLM :)

OpenGL : second VBO spoiling first VBO

I have a code that initially had one shader (ourShader), one VAO and one VBO. It would render a scene with a textured cube and its reflection on the ground using Stencil testing. Now, I wanted to add a framebuffer for post-processing so I needed a second shader. I added a second shader (screenShader) and a second VBO. I don't use them in my drawing yet, but the simple fact that I'm adding them makes my code render a black, red triangle instead of the usual scene.
My code looks like this :
Shader ourShader(string("core.vs"), string("core.frag")); // shader class creating a shader program from vertex shader and fragment shader source files.
Shader screenShader(string("core2.vs"), string("core2.frag"));
// Setting up attributes, VAO, VBO
GLuint VAO;
array<GLuint, 2> VBO;
glGenVertexArrays(1, &VAO);
glGenBuffers(2, &VBO[0]);
glBindVertexArray(VAO);
// Data for first shader and first VBO
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, VBO[0]);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(verticesCube), verticesCube, GL_STATIC_DRAW);
GLint posAttribLoc = glGetAttribLocation(ourShader.Program, "position");
glVertexAttribPointer(posAttribLoc, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 8 * sizeof(GLfloat), (GLvoid*)0); // specify (to the active VAO) how to retrieve the values for the attribute "position" from the data stored ("vertices" here) on the active VBO (GPU)
glEnableVertexAttribArray(posAttribLoc); // enable attribute for rendering
GLint colAttribLoc = glGetAttribLocation(ourShader.Program, "color");
glVertexAttribPointer(colAttribLoc, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 8 * sizeof(GLfloat), (GLvoid*)(3 * sizeof(GLfloat)));
glEnableVertexAttribArray(colAttribLoc);
GLint texAttribLoc = glGetAttribLocation(ourShader.Program, "texCoord");
glVertexAttribPointer(texAttribLoc, 2, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 8 * sizeof(GLfloat), (GLvoid*)(6 * sizeof(GLfloat)));
glEnableVertexAttribArray(texAttribLoc);
// ##### PART GIVING A WEIRD RESULT #####
// Data for second shader and second VBO
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, VBO[1]);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(verticesRectangle), verticesRectangle, GL_STATIC_DRAW);
GLint posAttribLoc2 = glGetAttribLocation(screenShader.Program, "position");
glVertexAttribPointer(posAttribLoc2, 2, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 4 * sizeof(GLfloat), (GLvoid*)0); // specify (to the active VAO) how to retrieve the values for the attribute "position" from the data stored ("vertices" here) on the active VBO (GPU)
glEnableVertexAttribArray(posAttribLoc2); // enable attribute for rendering
GLint texAttribLoc2 = glGetAttribLocation(screenShader.Program, "texCoord");
glVertexAttribPointer(texAttribLoc2, 2, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 4 * sizeof(GLfloat), (GLvoid*)(2 * sizeof(GLfloat)));
glEnableVertexAttribArray(texAttribLoc2);
// ##### END #####
// Setting up texture that will be used for the first shader
GLuint texture;
int width, height;
glGenTextures(1, &texture);
glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE0);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture); // makes "texture" the current texture and attaches it to texture unit 0
// Set the wrapping
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_REPEAT);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_REPEAT);
// Set the filtering
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
unsigned char* image = SOIL_load_image("res/images/image1.jpg", &width, &height, 0, SOIL_LOAD_RGBA);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, width, height, 0, GL_RGBA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, image);
glGenerateMipmap(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
SOIL_free_image_data(image);
// Unbind VBO, texture before main loop
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
glfwSwapInterval(1);
glfwSetKeyCallback(window, Input::keyCallback); // Input is a singleton class handling inputs. It works well.
glfwSetCursorPosCallback(window, Input::mouseCallback);
glfwSetScrollCallback(window, Input::scrollCallback);
while (glfwWindowShouldClose(window) == GLFW_FALSE) {
// MAIN LOOP
// ...
}
glDeleteVertexArrays(1, &VAO);
glDeleteBuffers(2, &VBO[0]);
The mainloop is not important I think. What I want to say is that if I remove the few lines dealing with the the second VBO, then the scene renders well. Otherwise, I get a weird-colored triangle.
And my two shaders use those source files for their respective vertex shader and fragment shader. By the way, I get no compilation errors from my shaders.
core.vs :

in vec2 texCoord;
in vec3 color;
out vec2 TexCoord;
out vec3 Color;

void main()
{
gl_Position = projection*view*model*vec4(position, 1.0);
TexCoord = vec2(texCoord.x, 1.0 - texCoord.y);
Color = color;
}
core.frag :
#version 330 core
in vec2 TexCoord;

I've already looked at Binding a second vertex buffer seems to spoil my first vertex buffer, OpenGL OES ios 5.1 but the person had this problem because he didn't use his VAO correctly.
Most probably two of your attribute locations have the same value. Since you use just one VAO, you override some of the bindings. The correct way of using multiple independent geometries is to use on VAO per geometry.
The correct code has to look somehow like this:
glBindVertexArray(vao1);
glBindBuffer(VBO[0])
glVertexAttribPointer...
glEnableVertexAttribArray...
//Setup all attributes for first VBO
glBindVertexArray(vao2);
glBindBuffer(VBO[1])
glVertexAttribPointer...
glEnableVertexAttribArray...
//Setup all attributes for second VBO
When rendering do the following:
glBindVertexArray(vao1);
glDraw*... //Draw VAO1
glBindVertexArray(vao2);
glDraw*.... //Draw VAO2

OpenGL not rendering colors

For some reason the colors are not rendering when I run my program. With the addition of glm, I have been running into issues with some strange images rendering on run. It might be a library, but it is highly doubtful. I have checked and rechecked my includes and libraries. I am using Eclipse.
Here is my code

Your vertex shader does not compile, because mobileColor is of type vec4 and color is of type vec3.
Change:
mobileColor = color;
to:
mobileColor = vec4(color, 1.0);
Note, your shader program was not used, because it was not successfully built. Everything you have drawn was drawn by default OpenGL with the currently set glColor, which is by default white (1,1,1,1).
Whether the compilation of a shader succeeded can be checked by glGetShaderiv, and the error message can be retrieved with glGetShaderInfoLog:
GLint status = GL_TRUE;
glCompileShader( shaderStage );
glGetShaderiv( shaderStage, GL_COMPILE_STATUS, &status );
if ( status == GL_FALSE )
{
GLint logLen;
glGetShaderiv( shaderStage, GL_INFO_LOG_LENGTH, &logLen );
std::vector< char >log( logLen+1 );
GLsizei written;
glGetShaderInfoLog( shaderStage, logLen, &written, log.data() );
std::cout << "compile error:" << std::endl << log.data() << std::endl;
}
Whether a program was linked successfully can be checked by glGetProgramiv, and the error message can be retrieved with glGetProgramInfoLog:
GLint status = GL_TRUE;
glLinkProgram( shaderProgram );
glGetProgramiv( shaderProgram, GL_LINK_STATUS, &status );
if ( status == GL_FALSE )
{
GLint logLen;
glGetProgramiv( shaderProgram, GL_INFO_LOG_LENGTH, &logLen );
std::vector< char >log( logLen+1 );
GLsizei written;
glGetProgramInfoLog( shaderProgram, logLen, &written, log.data() );
std::cout << "link error:" << std::endl << log.data() << std::endl;
