Nov 30, 2015 · What is GLEW? GLEW developer's page says: The OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library (GLEW) is a cross-platform open-source C/C++ extension loading library. GLEW provides efficient run-time mechanisms for determining which …

Aug 13, 2012 · I use the g++ compiler, which could be causing the main problem, but I'm using GLFW for window and input management, and I am using GLEW so that I can use OpenGL 3.x functionality. I loaded in models and then tried to make Vertex and Index buffers for the data, but it turned out that I kept getting segmentation faults in the program.

Sep 26, 2016 · Fortunately the GLEW source code is available, so we can check that and determine possible causes. The main reason why GLEW will fail to initialize is if there is no GL context when you call glewInit. This is the first check done by glewInit and it will return GLEW_ERROR_NO_GL_VERSION. Possible causes for that include:

How do I get GLEW to detect the high-performance GPU and make calls to the Nvidia drivers instead of the integrated Intel HD GPU? A similar question has been asked there, but it concerned only running the program on the gpu.

Jun 11, 2012 · At first, you must know that you can run a given version of OpenGL in two different profiles: Compatibility profile is supposed to be compatible with the previous versions, and Core profile which doesn't support previous versions but might be faster/smaller.

Jul 24, 2016 · I use GLEW and GLFW and so far linked it successfully. Should the engine or the respective game (which depends on the engine) include GLFW and GLEW? Ultimately I would like to create a library out off my engine and include it into my game, but I'm not quite sure if that is possible, if its the case, that the engine should depend on GLFW and GLEW.

What's missing in the 'toolchain' are loader libraries (GLEW belongs to that) to obtain all the function pointers and macros of the chosen API. Often they are just header files, for example for Vulkan, or glad (replacing glew) for OpenGL. My suggestion to the OP would be to just get started. The questions will be answered automatically then.

Edit:-How do I implement GLEW (or OpenGL extension libraries) within Unity?. Original Question:-I've recently been looking into some really nice features of OpenGL 3.2 that I want to take advantage of in the development of a tech demo.

Apr 24, 2020 · Preface: In Linux, using C++11, SDL2, GLEW, and OpenGL. Hello Ladies/Gents, I am reaching out as I'm stuck on a fairly simple problem that a decade out of school has further hindered. Specifically, ...
