Beginning in Qt with OpenGL

[ZapB]

Which build are you trying to debug? Desktop/simulator/symbian? I would try getting it working on the desktop first.

That was Qt Simulator -> N900 simulator

I tried that with desktop simulator,... It says Debugging starts..
It does nothing...

No window appears... no output...

This is a Qt Mobile application...

[ZapB]

Can you try building your app for the desktop target (not the desktop mobile simulator) and debugging that. You should have all the tools needed to debug that.

That was the desktop target...

This is the report when I interrupt debugging...

bq. Debugging starts

if you don't mind of testing my app yourself, I can mail you the project.... do you?

Guys I got it .....

I didn't use show function... now only i did...

Thanks for all your help..... :D

I have one more problem...

In this project , I'm drawing a triangle in center of the screen...

The project clears the screen with the color I specified , but it doesn't draw the triangle...

Here is the code...

@GamePlay::GamePlay(QWidget *parent) :
QGLWidget(parent)
{
setFormat(QGLFormat(QGL::DoubleBuffer | QGL::DepthBuffer));
}

void GamePlay::initializeGL()
{
qglClearColor(Qt::green);

}

void GamePlay::resizeGL(int width,int height)
{
glViewport(0,0,width,height);
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();
GLfloat x = GLfloat(width) / height;
glFrustum(-x, x, -1.0, 1.0, 4.0, 15.0);
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
}
void GamePlay::paintGL()
{
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
draw();
}

void GamePlay::draw()
{
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
glTranslatef(0,0,-10.0f);
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
qglColor(Qt::red);
glVertex3f(-0.5f,-0.5f,0);
glVertex3f(0,-0.5f,0);
glVertex3f(0.5f,-0.5f,0);
glEnd();
}@

First strait OpenGL isn't trivial and isn't for most people, just knowing how to program in C/C++ and the OpenGL api isn't enough you need a background in advanced mathematics. Also if your doing things in the wrong order or if your not in the right mode at the correct time you will end up with a different result than what you expected. When programming in OpenGL you have to think of it in a procedural mind set. Post a link to your complete source code if you want help.
