As you can see, this code is from a tutorial, which normally compiles fine, and until I start messing around with cross compiling it does. But when I try to compile it with:
x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ -Wall -o basicshapes.exe main.cpp -lfreeglut -L/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin
I get list of errors like:
/tmp/cczfJtsd.o:main.cpp:(.text+0xbc): undefined reference to `__imp_glEnable'
(...several more gl func similar errors)
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
And I really don't have any idea what is wrong. It's my first time with cross compilation and I don't yet completely get it.
I've installed MinGW from synaptic and freeglut from this link:
http://www.transmissionzero.co.uk/computing/using-glut-with-mingw/
I tried to compile it myself, but I was unable to do that so I just copy/paste installed it from this package.

gluLookAt not working properly after drawing shapes

I am really confused by how gluLookAt and glOrtho or gluPersective work together. Here is the problem.
I draw a 2D triangle and a 2D pentagon in the z-axis of -5.
//pentagon
glVertex3f(0.5f, 0.5f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(1.5f, 0.5f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(0.5f, 1.0f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(0.5f, 1.0f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(1.5f, 0.5f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(1.5f, 1.0f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(0.5f, 1.0f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(1.5f, 1.0f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, 1.5f, -5.0f);
//Triangle
glVertex3f(-0.5f, 0.5f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.5f, -5.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.5f, 0.5f, -5.0f);
And Then I define my camera position (0,0,-10) and perspective
//Tell OpenGL how to convert from coordinates to pixel values
glViewport(0, 0, w, h);
gluLookAt(0, 0, -10, 0, 0, -200, 0, 1, 0);
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); //Switch to setting the camera perspective
//Set the camera perspective
glLoadIdentity(); //Reset the camera
gluPerspective(45.0, //The camera angle
(double)w / (double)h, //The width-to-height ratio
1.0, //The near z clipping coordinate
5.2); //The far z clipping coordinate
Based on my understanding, I can see nothing in the scene. Because objects are defined in the -5 z-axis, however, the camera is at -10 z-axis, and it looks into negative z-axis. Thus, the object should be behind the camera. But why I can still see the objects in the scene?
Similarly, I can still see the object when I define my camera at postive 5 at look towards positive z-axis. Why?
Another question is why I can see the objects after I set the far z clipping coordinate to 5?
Anyone can explain this?

You're saying:
I draw a 2D triangle and a 2D pentagon in the z-axis of -5
...
And Then I define my camera position (0,0,-10) and perspective
If that is really the order you're doing the operations in, then that's the culprit. OpenGL is a command-based API, not a scene graph. Calling glVertex(x, y, z) does not mean "there is a vertex with coordinates x, y, z in the scene." It means "now go and draw a verex on coordinates x, y, z." This means the vertex is transformed by the modelview and projection matrix active at the time of the glVertex() call.
In other words, you issue the vertices with the default modelview and projection matrices, so they get drawn on the screen normally. Then you change the modelview and projection; if you then went on to issue any more vertices, they would be transformed by these new modelview and projection values. But the ones issued previously are already on the screen and unaffected.
In other words, remove these two lines from your draw function:
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); //Switch to the drawing perspective
glLoadIdentity(); //Reset the drawing perspective
The comments seem to indicate the issue rather well.
The most common setup is to define the projection matrix in the resize hook (as it depends on the aspect ratio), and the view matrix (=camera position and orientation) in the draw function, before issuing any render commands.
As #datenwolf correctly pointed out in comments, this is the common setup for single view rendering. If you have more than one viewport, each of them will probably need a different projection matrix, in which case you would set up the projection matrix along with the view matrix in rendering code, before issuing primitives.

how to perform shearing of a rectangle in OpenGL

I am using OpenGL apis to obtain isometric view of Rectangle using SSR (Scale/Shear/Rotate) method. I am able to scale and rotate rectangle. But I not getting way as how to shear a rectangle. I am new to OpenGL. Please help.

}
For a shear parallel to the x-axis by the amount shear:
GLfloat m[16] = {
1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
shear, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f
};
glMultMatrixf(m);
and parallel to the y-axis:
GLfloat m[16] = {
1.0f, shear, 0.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f
};
glMultMatrixf(m);
When you compare this to matrices specified in mathematical notation, e.g. the Wikipedia Shear matrix page, keep in mind that OpenGL matrices are specified in column major order.
Both of the above are for transformations in the 2D plane. I.e. the first one leaves the x-axis stationary, and shears the y-axis, while the second one keeps the y-axis stationary, and shears the x-axis. If you look at shear transforms in full 3D space, you get many more variations.

How to display a sphere correctly in openGL

I don't know very much about openGL/glut, but I've used it before successfully for some exceedingly simple things in 2D.
Now I want to be able to draw spheres in 3D. I'm trying to simulate particle collisions, so all I'm really going to need to do on the graphics end is draw spheres.
Here's my abortive attempt
void renderScene()
{
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
// Set the camera
gluLookAt(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f,
0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glutSwapBuffers();
}
void timerProc(int arg)
{
glutTimerFunc(50,timerProc,0);
// Reset transformations
glLoadIdentity();
// Set the camera
gluLookAt(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f,
0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glClearColor(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glColor3f(0.0,0.0,0.0); //color = black
glPushMatrix();
glTranslated(0,0,0);
glutSolidSphere(.74, 500, 500);
glPopMatrix();
glutSwapBuffers();
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
srand(time(NULL));
init();
glutInit(&argc, argv);
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_DEPTH | GLUT_DOUBLE | GLUT_RGBA);
glutInitWindowPosition(50,30);
glutInitWindowSize(glutGet(GLUT_SCREEN_WIDTH)-80,glutGet(GLUT_SCREEN_HEIGHT)-60);
mainWindow=glutCreateWindow("New Window"); //global variable
WIDTH=glutGet(GLUT_WINDOW_WIDTH); //global variable
HEIGHT=glutGet(GLUT_WINDOW_HEIGHT); //global variable
glutDisplayFunc(renderScene);
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA,GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
glutTimerFunc(50,timerProc,0);
glutMainLoop();
return 0;
}
Hopefully all of my problems stem from one really basic mistake...
For some reason, this creates an oval. And, though the oval is pretty big (maybe about an 1/8th of the screen wide and tall), if I lower the radius down to .73 it vanishes, I'm guessing because it's too small to see.
How would I make it so that this sphere would show up circular like you'd expect, and so that as I can see everything that's happening in a given volume, say a 10x10x10 box, the way you would if you were just standing next to a box of particles that were flying around and peering into it, or a reasonable approximation. Right now it's hard to tell what exactly I'm looking at (I know that I'm standing at 1,1,1 and looking at the origin, but it's hard to grasp exactly what I'm seeing)
Also, occasionally when I run it the whole screen is just black. Then when I clean and build and run again it's fine. Not really a huge concern, but annoying, and I'd love to understand what was going on.
Also, when I the number of slices and stacks was lower, it would look fine if the radius was large, but become extremely distorted when the radius was small, which I thought was very strange...
The main problem you are having here is Z clipping. The initial Z range for the scene is (-1, 1) so you only see a part of the actual sphere and by change in its size you go out of z range.
Image
There are several problems I see in the code.
It is good to get a grasp of how the GLUT workflow actually works.
Lets see what the code does wrong.
Main
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
srand(time(NULL));
init();
glutInit(&argc, argv);
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_DEPTH | GLUT_DOUBLE | GLUT_RGBA);
glutInitWindowPosition(50, 30);
glutInitWindowSize(glutGet(GLUT_SCREEN_WIDTH) - 80,
glutGet(GLUT_SCREEN_HEIGHT) - 60);
mainWindow = glutCreateWindow("New Window"); //global variable
WIDTH = glutGet(GLUT_WINDOW_WIDTH); //global variable
HEIGHT = glutGet(GLUT_WINDOW_HEIGHT); //global variable
glutDisplayFunc(renderScene);
Here you define the display function. It is called every time the window contents has to be invalidated. In this case it is invalidated only at start. The renderScene function does not do anything awesome, just clears the screen. So you get a black screen at the beginning.
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
No need for blending at the moment. You can skip that part altogether.
glutTimerFunc(50, timerProc, 0);
Now you set up the timerProc function to be called in 50 milliseconds.
glutMainLoop();
As the documentation states: glutMainLoop enters the GLUT event processing loop. This routine should be called at most once in a GLUT program. Once called, this routine will never return. It will call as necessary any callbacks that have been registered.
return 0;
}
Render Scene
void renderScene()
{
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
This is the only place where you clear the screen. Timer Func does not do this.
glLoadIdentity();
You are reseting the matrices.
// Set the camera
gluLookAt(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f,
0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
Setting up the matrices. (One matrix to be precise)
glutSwapBuffers();
And without drawing anything you swap buffers.
}
Scene rendering function is called each time the window frame has to be redrawn.
Timer
This function does rely on the screen being cleared at first by the renderScene.
void timerProc(int arg)
{
glutTimerFunc(50, timerProc, 0);
// Reset transformations
glLoadIdentity();
// Set the camera
gluLookAt(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f,
0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glClearColor(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
Not clearing this time. Only setting the color.
glColor3f(0.0, 0.0, 0.0); //color = black
glPushMatrix();
glTranslated(0, 0, 0);
glutSolidSphere(.74, 500, 500);
glPopMatrix();
glutSwapBuffers();
}
How to fix it?
Just setup the matrices. With proper Z range.
void resetTransformations() {
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();
glOrtho(-1, 1, -1, 1, -1000, 1000);
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
gluLookAt(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f,
0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f,
0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
}
void renderScene()
{
glClearColor(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
// Reset transformations
resetTransformations();
// Just to see some triangles
glPolygonMode(GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_LINE);
glColor3f(0.0, 0.0, 0.0); //color = black
glPushMatrix();
glTranslated(0, 0, 0);
glutSolidSphere(0.74, 500, 500);
glPopMatrix();
glutSwapBuffers();
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
srand(time(NULL));
glutInit(&argc, argv);
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_DEPTH | GLUT_DOUBLE | GLUT_RGBA);
glutInitWindowPosition(50, 30);
glutInitWindowSize(256, 256);
mainWindow = glutCreateWindow("New Window"); //global variable
WIDTH = glutGet(GLUT_WINDOW_WIDTH); //global variable
HEIGHT = glutGet(GLUT_WINDOW_HEIGHT); //global variable
glutDisplayFunc(renderScene);
glutIdleFunc(renderScene);
glutMainLoop();
return 0;
}

I aggreed with talonmies.
It was because of the Nvidia problem. I could't find a official way to install Nvidia's developer's driver on Fedora 15. So I used rpmfusion. The driver runs and I can run CUDA. Only GLX related stuff are messed up. However, it also messed up Gnome 3.
So I switched to Arch Linux. With a much clean start, install Nvida and install Xorg according to the ArchWiki. And then install Gnome. Amazingly, OpenGL works. I guess the driver in Arch repo is not the developer's driver. Maybe just for display driver. However, CUDA works.
I am glad with that. And hopefully this will be helpful to some one else who want to run CUDA and OpenGL on Linux.
Thanks,
Alfred
There is nothing wrong with the code. I can successfully compile and run it on a properly configured 64 bit linux system with NVIDIA release 280.13 drivers. You have a driver or X11 driver installation or configuration problem. There is no programming help required for this question.
Since you tagged this question cuda I'm going to assume you're running NVidia hardware.
Try installing some drivers.

OpenGL true coordinates and glutTimerFunc() problem C++

HI I am starting to learn openGl for C++.but at stating point I stucked.
I have 2 question that is the coordinates for drawing some objects? I mean where is X, Y and Z?
Second one I am making tutorial from some sites. and I am trying to animate my triangle.In tutorial it works but on my computer not.I Also downloaded source codes but It doesnt move. And there is no compiler error.
Edit:I solved problem. With restarting computer.I think it is poblem about my computer.
Here sample codes. I thougt that problem is glutTimerFunc().
#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>
#ifdef __APPLE__
#include<OpenGL/OpenGL.h>
#include <GLUT/glut.h>
#else
#include <gl/glut.h>

Regarding your first question, you can use gluProject() to apply your transform matrices (via GL_MODELVIEW_MATRIX and GL_PROJECTION_MATRIX) to arbitrary vertexes.
