Linux OpenGL demo compile issues

sqrt_1 · August 9, 2008, 5:03pm

As mentioned in this thread:
http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=243051#Post243051

some people are having trouble compiling my OpenGL demo on Linux.
Can some other people try it out and see if you get errors - or perhaps point out where I am going wrong? (seem to be a problem with the extension headers?) I am using PCLinuxOS 2007 and do not seem to have any problems compiling. (other than initially missing some dev packages for compile headers)

http://lightindexed-deferredrender.googlecode.com/files/LightIndexedDeferredRendering1.2.zip

Should just be able to extract the zip - go to the DeferredLighting folder and type “make” on the command line.

I’m getting the GLvoid errors as well:


../Framework3/OpenGL/OpenGLExtensions.h:596: error: ‘<anonymous>’ has incomplete type
../Framework3/OpenGL/OpenGLExtensions.h:596: error: invalid use of ‘GLvoid’

I’m in Ubuntu and I have all of the necessary packages installed for developing with OpenGL, SDL, GLEW, GLUT, etc.

I’m using gcc 4.2.3.

Yes I have the same errors using the same OS abd compiler. I don’t understand what is in the OpenGLExtensions.h header file. At fist sight there are many lines that look like what is in the glext header file (APIENTRY…).

Ubuntu 8.04.1 32-bit. I can compile without problems FW3 Humus’s demos (like Domino, etc).

EDIT: My mistake - this is from LIDR-v1.1 (tried with 8.04 default g+±4.2.3 and also g+±3.4.6 = same results).
I’ll try v1.2 later;).

Komat · August 10, 2008, 6:48am

It compiles fine for me on Ubuntu 7.10 with g++ 4.1.3. It fails with the errors about GLvoid after I switched to the g++ 4.2.1.

Komat · August 10, 2008, 7:04am

Based on how I understand this bug report something like:


typedef void MyVoid ;
void function( MyVoid ) ; <- to indicate that the function has no parameters.

is allowed in C but not allowed in C++ so the newer version of the compiler does not allow that.

Seth_Hoffert · August 10, 2008, 7:15am

Removing the voids fixed it for me. Nice demo.

dletozeun · August 10, 2008, 9:20am

Yes this works removing GLvoid. But the demo doesn’t work correctly, I just see the lights bouncing but everything else is black and the window behaves oddly, actually keyboard and mouse don’t respond for everything outside the demo. For instance, I can’t move or resize the window, or take a screenshot until I quit pressing escape.

Seth_Hoffert · August 10, 2008, 9:31am

Weird, it works here. What driver/card are you using? I am using an 8800 GTS with NVIDIA’s latest drivers.

dletozeun · August 10, 2008, 10:35am

Oops I forgot it. ATI Radeon X1600 mobility and driver catalyst 8.51.3 which is the latest for my card.

sqrt_1 · August 11, 2008, 4:37am

Thanks heaps guys - I would never have found that compiler issue.

@ dletozeun
That “blackness” is what another X1600 user originally reported - did you try uncommenting the lines in the shader file (in my original post) and see if that made a difference?
(the lightIndex += 0.5/256.0; line in the file lightingLIDefer.shd)

dletozeun · August 11, 2008, 2:11pm

Oops sorry I forgot to try it with all of this…

With regrets, that did not help, I get the same rendering.

sqrt_1 · August 11, 2008, 7:33pm

OK - thanks for all your help dletozeun - You went above the call of duty in helping me. Shame I cannot figure out what is wrong.

Seth_Hoffert · August 29, 2008, 8:31pm

Just FYI, I am able to compile and run the demo in a 64-bit Vista environment.
