<Qt5.5 Problems> QOpenGLWidget not render anything in Mac OS X

[KunLin]

Hi, Here is my problem, can anyone help me?

I'm trying to use QOpenGLWidget to render a trivial example, a triangle. But the problem is that the widget is totally black and not rendering anything.

In main.cpp:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    QApplication app(argc, argv);        

    QSurfaceFormat format;
    format.setProfile (QSurfaceFormat::CoreProfile);
    format.setVersion (4 , 3);
    format.setSwapBehavior (QSurfaceFormat::DoubleBuffer);
    format.setRenderableType (QSurfaceFormat::OpenGL);
    QSurfaceFormat::setDefaultFormat (format);
    
    MyViewer.show();

    return app.exec();
}

In MyViewer.cpp:

namespace {
    static const char VertexShaderCode[] =
        "#version 410\n"
        "layout(location=0) in vec2 position;"
        "layout(location=1) in vec3 color;"
        ""
        ""
        "void main()"
        "{"
        "   gl_Position = vec4(position, 0.0, 1.0);"
        "}\0";

    static const char FragmentShaderCode[] =
        "#version 410\n"
        ""
        "out vec4 output_color;"
        ""
        "void main()"
        "{"
        "   output_color = vec4(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);"
        "}\0";

    void InstallShaders () {
        QOpenGLShader vertex_shader (QOpenGLShader::Vertex , 0);
        QOpenGLShader fragment_shader (QOpenGLShader::Fragment , 0);

        vertex_shader.compileSourceCode (::VertexShaderCode);
        fragment_shader.compileSourceCode (::FragmentShaderCode);

        assert(vertex_shader.isCompiled () and fragment_shader.isCompiled ());

        QOpenGLShaderProgram program;

        program.addShader (& vertex_shader);
        program.addShader (& fragment_shader);

        program.link ();

        assert(program.isLinked ());

        assert(program.bind ());
        // glUseProgram (program.programId ());
    }
};

...

void MyViewer::InitializeGL() {
    initializeOpenGLFunctions();
    InistallShaders();
    GLuint buffer_id;
    glGenBuffers (1 , & buffer_id);
    glBindBuffer (GL_ARRAY_BUFFER , buffer_id);

    GLfloat vertices[] = {
        +0.0f , +0.8f , // top
        +1.0f , +0.0f , +0.0f , // red
        -0.8f , -0.8f , // left
        +0.0f , +1.0f , +0.0f , // blue
        +0.8f , -0.8f , // right
        +0.0f , +0.0f , +1.0f , // green
    };

    glBufferData (GL_ARRAY_BUFFER , sizeof (vertices) , vertices , GL_STATIC_DRAW);
    glEnableVertexAttribArray (0);
    glEnableVertexAttribArray (1);

    glVertexAttribPointer (0 , 2 , GL_FLOAT , GL_FALSE , sizeof (float) * 5 , 0);
    glVertexAttribPointer (1 , 3 , GL_FLOAT , GL_FALSE , sizeof (float) * 5 , (char *) (sizeof (float) * 2));
}

void MyViewer::paintGL () {
    glDrawArrays (GL_TRIANGLES , 0 , 3);
}

But nothing is rendered and I only got a black window.

I tried to render the triangle without shaders too, and remove the

glVertexAttribPointer(1);

and

glVertexAttribPointer (1 , 3 , GL_FLOAT , GL_FALSE , sizeof (float) * 5 , (char *) (sizeof (float) * 2));

in order to render a white triangle on the black plane, but it's not working either. By the way, build and all the assert(...) succeeded, and I think the shader compilation worked out fine.

Hi,

Because you are asking for an OpenGL 4.3 context which is currently not available on OS X. AFAIK 4.1 is the most you can get depending on the version of OS X you are running.
