I want to test if VBO and VAO are working even without a shader (since I want to test modelview matrix), and in theory they should. I googled for some examples but failed. I’m getting a black window. Some help?
int main() {
if (!glfwInit())
return -1;
glfwWindowHint(GLFW_CONTEXT_VERSION_MAJOR, 3);
glfwWindowHint(GLFW_CONTEXT_VERSION_MINOR, 3);
glfwWindowHint(GLFW_OPENGL_PROFILE, GLFW_OPENGL_CORE_PROFILE);
glfwWindowHint(GLFW_OPENGL_FORWARD_COMPAT, GL_TRUE);
GLFWwindow* window;
window = glfwCreateWindow(window_width, window_height, "Hello World", NULL, NULL);
if (!window) {
glfwTerminate();
return -1;
}
glfwMakeContextCurrent(window);
float vertices[] = {
0.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f, // top right
0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f, // bottom right
-0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f, // bottom left
-0.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f // top left
};
unsigned int indices[] = {
0, 1, 3, // first Triangle
1, 2, 3 // second Triangle
};
unsigned int VBO, VAO, EBO;
glGenVertexArrays(1, &VAO);
glBindVertexArray(VAO);
glGenBuffers(1, &VBO);
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, VBO);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(vertices), vertices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);
glGenBuffers(1, &EBO);
glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, EBO);
glBufferData(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(indices), indices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);
glEnableVertexAttribArray(0);
glVertexAttribPointer(0, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 3 * sizeof(float), (void*)0);
glBindVertexArray(0);
glPolygonMode(GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_LINE);
while (!glfwWindowShouldClose(window)) {
glClearColor(0, 0, 0, 0);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
glBindVertexArray(VAO); // seeing as we only have a single VAO there's no need to bind it every time, but we'll do so to keep things a bit more organized
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, 6, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0);
glfwSwapBuffers(window);
glfwPollEvents();
}
glfwDestroyWindow(window);
glfwTerminate();
return 0;
