GLTexStorage2D crash the program

Hi, I want to use opengl function in the main function to debug my code but when I use those functions in the main function, it crash, I’ve also the same problem with the glBindVertexArray function.

Here is the source code :

I don’t go further because it crash at this line, I followed this tutorial for context creation :
https://www.khronos.org/opengl/wiki/Tutorial:OpenGL_3.0_Context_Creation(GLX)

Hi again @laurent7601 Please be sure to format your code using the proper code tags. This will make it a LOT easier for others to read and respond to your code. Also, you mention in your post “it crash at this line” but didn’t include which line. Thank you for understanding.

How can I format the code ? I tried bloquote but it format only a part of the code…

As mentioned by @Dark_Photon you will see how to format the code and questions in the Forum Posting Guidelines and I have given you a short how to in your last post:

Try:

printf( "glTexStorage2D = %p", glTexStorage2D );

Is it NULL?

Part of your problem may be that you’re not actually using GLEW (though you’re including the GLEW header).

Using GLEW is easy, and it takes care of all of the setup of OpenGL function pointers and querying for supported GL extensions, giving you a nice, simple interface. See this page for an example:

The alternative to using GLEW is that, depending on your GL driver, you may have to manually query GL function pointers from the driver using glXGetProcAddress().

Just use GLEW. Then you don’t need to do this. It does it all for you.

That works. But personally, I would not recommend creating your own context and window manually, unless you you know that you need to do something unusual. For test programs, I would just use GLUT or GLFW and skip all that needless complexity.

Here’s a simple little test program to show you how easy it is to use GLEW and GLUT:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <GL/glew.h>
#include <GL/glut.h>

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------

void checkGLError( const char hdr[] )
{
  int err = glGetError();
  if( err )
  {
    fprintf(stderr, "ERROR %s: %s\n", hdr, gluErrorString(err));
    exit(1);
  }
}

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------

void reshape( int width, int height )
{
  glViewport(0, 0, width, height);
}

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------

void display()
{
  // Clear screen
  glClearColor( 0,0,1,1 );
  glClear( GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT );

  // Load up PROJECTION and MODELVIEW
  glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
  glLoadIdentity();
  glOrtho(-2,2,-2,2,-2,2);

  glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
  glLoadIdentity();

  // FIXME: Add GL draw commands here

  // Swap
  glutSwapBuffers();
  glutPostRedisplay();
  checkGLError( "End of display()" );
}

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------

void keyboard( unsigned char key, int x, int y )
{
   switch (key) {
      case 27:
         exit(0);
         break;
   }
}

int main( int argc, char** argv )
{
  // Init GLUT
  glutInit( &argc, argv );
  glutInitDisplayMode(  GLUT_RGBA | GLUT_DOUBLE  );
  glutCreateWindow( argv[0] );

  glutKeyboardFunc( keyboard );
  glutDisplayFunc( display );
  glutReshapeFunc( reshape );

  glutReshapeWindow( 400,400 );

  // Init GLEW
  GLenum err = glewInit();
  if ( err != GLEW_OK )
  {
    // Problem: glewInit failed, something is seriously wrong.
    fprintf( stderr, "Error: %s\n", glewGetErrorString(err) );
    exit(1);
  }

  printf( "GL_RENDERER = %s\n", glGetString( GL_RENDERER) );

  glutMainLoop();
  return 0;
}

Ha yes I frogot to initialize glew it’s certainly the cause of the crash.

Urmf…, yes previously I used SFML to not manage the opengl context manually and I have even written an interface to switch between libraries without having to change the source code to test multiple libraries. But I had a crash while creating the context when using multiple windows so I encoded my own module and it works.

I have a better understanding when I do things by myself and I often do this if the lib I use doesn’t work, and it’s not the single library I have reinvented.

Once time I even tried to implement my own driver with openCL because mesa source code is complex but opencl context creation fails with my GPU device.
