glutReshapeFunc

[bagiles]

I have a small OpenGL program that displays a small square in a window. When I add the glutReshapeFunc to the program it crashes at the call to glutMainLoop.

You need to post the code, without seeing what you are doing we have no clue as to what is causing the crash.

#include <gl\glut.h>

void RenderScene(void)
{
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

glColor3f(1.0f,0.0f,0.0f);

glRectf(100.0f,150.0f,150.0f,100.0f);

glFlush();
}

void SetupRC(void)
{
glClearColor(0.0f,0.0f,0.0f,1.0f);
}

void ChangeSize(GLsizei w, GLsizei h)
{
//prevent divide by zero
if(h==0)
h=1;

//set viewport to window dimensions
glViewport(0,0,w,h);

//Reset corrdinate system
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();

//Establish clipping volume (left,right,bottom,near,far)
if(w<=h)
glOrtho(0.0f,250.0f,0.0f,250.0f*h/w,1.0f,-1.0f);
else
glOrtho(0.0f,250.0f*w/h,0.0f,250.0f,1.0f,-1.0f);

glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
}

int main(void)
{
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);
glutCreateWindow("Simple");
glutDisplayFunc(RenderScene);
glutReshapeFunc(ChangeSize);


SetupRC();

glutMainLoop();

return 0;

}

Don't you have to size the window initially?

glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);

glutInitWindowSize(width,height);

glutCreateWindow("Simple");
glutDisplayFunc(RenderScene);
glutReshapeFunc(ChangeSize);

I think entering in the initial size might help. Otherwise you could get a divide by 0 on line :

glOrtho(0.0f,250.0f,0.0f,250.0f*h/w,1.0f,-1.0f);

because if w and h = 0 this line is run. Only the divide by 0 for h was taken care of with:

//prevent divide by zero
if(h==0)
h=1;

See if that works.

What's that SetupRC thing? Throw it away, it's certainly not needed with glut and might interfere!

zeckensack,
SetupRC is ok. Thats how examples are done in the OpenGL Superbible. Shouldn't be a problem here.
