grieverheart / space_invaders Goto Github PK

Just wanted to say that space_invaders builds great with sakemake, right out of the box, no build-configuration needed. :)

This works fine:

g++ -std=c++11 -o main -lglfw -lGLEW -lGL main.cpp

but running the following throws an error:

geoff@ubuntu:~/work/interview$ ./main 
libGL error: unable to load driver: radeonsi_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: radeonsi
libGL error: unable to load driver: radeonsi_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: radeonsi
libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
Error: GLX: Failed to create context: GLXBadFBConfig

I add some levels, enhancements, etc?

Running on Linux, I was experiencing the application crashing with a segmentation fault.

This would occur when executing the call: glGenVertexArrays(1, &fullscreen_triangle_vao);

To fix this, I needed to set the global switch glewExperimental to GL_TRUE before initialising glew, eg:

glewExperimental = GL_TRUE;
GLenum err = glewInit();

I made a fork of the space invaders code here, but I am unsure if this is okay, since a license i missing.

What is the license for this project?

In your 1st blog post, you write that the command to compile the code is

g++ -std=c++11 -o main -lglfw -lglew -framework OpenGL main.cpp

But, for me, on the latest Fedora release, it was the command you suggested for Mac OS X that worked

g++ -std=c++11 -o main -lglfw -lGLEW -lGL main.cpp

Is this a mistake on your end, or just Fedora being weird ? (Very cool tutorials by the way)
