Re: [Haskell-cafe] Re: ghc-6.11 + OpenGL/GLUT crashes on WinXP

Conal, I tried this today on a VirtualBox VM running the same versions as Mark Wassell, and it worked for me... I wonder, though, if perhaps GLUT is not getting a GLX (or direct) video context on your machine for some reason. That has caused some of my GLUT programs to die in the past, no matter the language. Have you tried using the GLUT library from a C program to see if you get the same error? On Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 4:49 AM, Mark Wassell wrote:

Hi,

Works here:

Windows XP SP 3 ghc-6.10.20081007 glut32 from http://www.xmission.com/~nate/glut.html

Don't know if this will help:

DirectX 9.0c (always thought OpenGL and DirectX were orthogonal but ddraw.dll is being used).

No display lists. The crash happens during the GLUT call "initialize". I can trigger it from ghci with the following simple incantation:

Prelude> import Graphics.UI.GLUT Prelude Graphics.UI.GLUT> initialize "foo" []

And no trouble under ghc 6.9.20080622.

Stumped. :(

Conal, are you using display lists at all? I've had problems with allocating lists, but you seem to be able to leave off the allocation step in Windows on nVidia cards so long as you're careful not to conflict names yourself.

GLUT). I wonder if glut32-vs-freeglut could account for crash-vs-nocrash on 6.10 and 6.11 but not 6.9. I'd love to hear from someone on Windows and glut32.

Windows XP with SP3 ghc-6.10.20081007 glut32

Works fine for me.

Taking a look at my GL headers, I did have to mess with at least glut.h to get something to work---whether it was to build HOpenGL, to make

or to make them runnable, I'm not sure. In any case, what I did was force GLUTAPIENTRY to be #defined as __stdcall.
