Need help drawing OpenGL Triangle using mouseDown event in Cocoa

Sat, 18 May 2013 23:28:21 GMT

Source: stackoverflow.com --- Saturday, May 18, 2013
so this is the first time I've ever programmed in Xcode or Objective C (some prior experience in Java and Python) and for my final project in my senior high school computer science course, I wanted to create a simple drawing program using OpenGL and mouseEvents (so it's interactive) and then I would build upon it with options to change the color, shape, and size of your brush, etc. But...I can't even draw a triangle after a mouse click. So, here's my code from the "MyOpenGLView.m" file, where the methods are listed. What it can do is return in the Log window the location of my mouse whenever I left click. However, it just won't draw a triangle. If you need any of the other files in order to help me, let me know. Thank you! #import "MyOpenGLView.h" #include <OpenGL/gl.h> @implementation MyOpenGLView NSPoint mouseLoc; - (void)updateTrackingAreas { [super updateTrackingAreas]; if (trackingArea) { [self removeTrackingArea:trackingArea]; [trackingArea release]; } NSTrackingAreaOptions options = NSTrackingInVisibleRect | NSTrackingMouseMoved | NSTrackingMouseEnteredAndExited | NSTrackingActiveInKeyWindow; trackingArea = [[NSTrackingArea alloc] initWithRect:NSZeroRect options:options owner:self userInfo:nil]; [self addTrackingArea:trackingArea]; } -(void) drawRect: (NSRect) bounds { glClearColor(0, 0, 0, 0); glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT); drawAnObject(); glFlush(); } - (void) mouseEntered:(NSEvent *)theEvent { mouseLoc = [NSEvent mouseLoc ...

Qt 5 on Windows ANGLE and OpenGL

Fri, 17 May 2013 11:53:35 GMT

Source: qt-project.org --- Friday, May 17, 2013
This article is a draft. Its content as well as recommendations may change rapidly. TODO : WebKit? Qt Multimedia? tl;dr; Qt 5 on Windows can be configured to use either OpenGL drivers, or DirectX drivers through the ANGLE library. What you want depends on your use case. The Qt project offers binary installers for both variants. OpenGL OpenGL (Open Graphics Library) is a wide spread industry standard [OpenGL.org] for rendering 2D and 3D computer graphics. It’s the de-facto standard for hardware-accelerated graphics operations on Mac OS X, Linux, and most embedded platforms. OpenGL ES 2.0 (Open Graphics Library for Embedded Systems) is a stripped-down version of OpenGL for use on embedded systems, which is missing some functions. The Qt Quick 2 stack in Qt 5 is based on OpenGL, and requires OpenGL 3.0 (alternatively OpenGL 2.x with the framebuffer_object extension) or higher or OpenGL ES 2.0. The Qt OpenGL module [qt-project.org] requires OpenGL 1.3 or later. OpenGL on Windows Although Microsoft Windows has native support for OpenGL since quite some time, the supported standard version (version 1 without any drivers installed) is too limited for Qt . Newer versions are generally available through custom graphics drivers, but require users to install them. Also, the quality of the OpenGL support by some drivers is lacking. ANGLE Project ANGLE (Almost Native Graphics Layer Engine) is an open source project [code.google.com] by Google. ...

Curious to see how the performance of the open-source ATI/AMD Linux graphics driver is evolving for aging hardware, a new round of OpenGL benchmarks were carried out on the once-popular ATI Radeon HD 4870 "RV770" graphics card. The performance was compared between the Mesa 7.11, 8.0, 9.0, 9.1, and 9.2-devel Git releases from an Ubuntu Linux system to see how the performance has changed for this driver in the past two years. ...
