glGetUniformfv and matrices

[imported_pjcozzi]

Hello,

I am having trouble using glGetUniformfv to query the initial value of a uniform matrix. The shader looks like:

#version 120
uniform mat2 m2 = mat2(0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4);
// ...

After the shader compiles and links with no errors or warnings, I query the initial value of m2 with glGetUniformfv:

float v[4];
glGetUniformfv(programHandle, index, v);

And I wind up with

v[0] = 0.10000000
v[1] = 0.20000000
v[2] = -0.0013270393
v[3] = -0.0013270393

The second column of the matrix is incorrect.

The funny thing is after I modify the uniform with glUniformMatrix2fvARB, glGetUniformfv starts to return the correct value.

Am I doing something wrong? Or is this potentially a driver bug? I have a GeForce 8800 GTX with up to date drivers as of last week. I’ve also tried with mat3 and mat4.

Thanks,
Patrick
