Win32 opengl Window creation
What is the best way to set up a window in win32 that has OpenGl(and glsl if the needs extra code to work) integrated into it?
I have done some research and found numerous ways of accomplishing this task i was wondering what the best way is or what way you like the most if the best way doesn't have an answer.
I have looked at nehe`s design and also the one supplied by the OpenGl super bible which both have completely different ways of accomplishing it (also the super bible开发者_高级运维s one gives me errors :().
any help would be appreciated including tutorials etc.
thanks
All your "different ways" aren't so different. You have to:
- create your window (in the usual Win32 way, with
RegisterClass(Ex)andCreateWindow(Ex)) - create a GDI device context corresponding to your window (
GetDC) - pick a pixel format which is supported by the display (optional
DescribePixelFormat, thenChoosePixelFormat) - create your OpenGL context (
wglCreateContext) - (optional, but required to use GLSL) link OpenGL extension functions (GLee or GLEW helpers, or
glGetString(GL_EXTENSIONS)thenwglGetProcAddress) - (optional) create an OpenGL 3.x context, free the compatibility context (
wglCreateContextAttribs) - make the context active (
wglMakeCurrent) - start using OpenGL (set up shader programs, load textures, draw stuff, etc.)
An excerpt of code showing these steps in action (not suitable for copy+paste, a bunch of RAII wrappers are used):
bool Context::attach( HWND hwnd )
{
PIXELFORMATDESCRIPTOR pfd = { sizeof(pfd), 1 };
if (!m_dc) {
scoped_window_hdc(hwnd).swap(m_dc);
pfd.dwFlags = PFD_DRAW_TO_WINDOW | PFD_SUPPORT_OPENGL | PFD_SUPPORT_COMPOSITION | PFD_DOUBLEBUFFER;
pfd.iPixelType = PFD_TYPE_RGBA;
pfd.cColorBits = 32;
pfd.cAlphaBits = 8;
pfd.iLayerType = PFD_MAIN_PLANE;
auto format_index = ::ChoosePixelFormat(m_dc.get(), &pfd);
if (!format_index)
return false;
if (!::SetPixelFormat(m_dc.get(), format_index, &pfd))
return false;
}
auto active_format_index = ::GetPixelFormat(m_dc.get());
if (!active_format_index)
return false;
if (!::DescribePixelFormat(m_dc.get(), active_format_index, sizeof pfd, &pfd))
return false;
if ((pfd.dwFlags & PFD_SUPPORT_OPENGL) != PFD_SUPPORT_OPENGL)
return false;
m_render_thread = ::CreateThread(NULL, 0, &RenderThreadProc, this, 0, NULL);
return m_render_thread != NULL;
}
DWORD WINAPI Context::RenderThreadProc( LPVOID param )
{
Context* const ctx = static_cast<Context*>(param);
HDC dc = ctx->m_dc.get();
SIZE canvas_size;
ctx->m_dc.check_resize(&canvas_size);
scoped_hglrc glrc(wglCreateContext(dc));
if (!glrc)
return EXIT_FAILURE;
if (!glrc.make_current(dc))
return EXIT_FAILURE;
if (ctx->m_major_version > 2 && GLEE_WGL_ARB_create_context) {
int const create_attribs[] = {
WGL_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION_ARB, ctx->m_major_version,
WGL_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION_ARB, ctx->m_minor_version,
0
};
scoped_hglrc advrc(wglCreateContextAttribsARB(dc, 0, create_attribs));
if (advrc) {
if (!advrc.make_current(dc))
return EXIT_FAILURE;
advrc.swap(glrc);
}
}
{
const char* ver = reinterpret_cast<const char*>(glGetString(GL_VERSION));
if (ver) {
OutputDebugStringA("GL_VERSION = \"");
OutputDebugStringA(ver);
OutputDebugStringA("\"\n");
}
}
glDisable(GL_DITHER);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
glClearColor(0.f, 0.f, 0.f, 1.f);
if (GLEE_WGL_EXT_swap_control)
wglSwapIntervalEXT(1);
GLuint vao;
glGenVertexArrays(1, &vao);
glBindVertexArray(vao);
while (!::InterlockedExchange(&ctx->m_stop_render, 0)) {
ctx->process_queued_tasks();
if (ctx->m_dc.check_resize(&canvas_size)) {
glViewport(0, 0, canvas_size.cx, canvas_size.cy);
ctx->process_on_resize();
}
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
glBindVertexArray(vao);
ctx->process_on_render();
BOOL swapped = ::SwapBuffers(dc);
if (!swapped)
std::cout << "::SwapBuffers failure, GetLastError() returns " << std::hex << ::GetLastError() << std::endl;
}
ctx->m_program_db.clear();
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
It also doesn't cover window creation, it enables OpenGL on an existing window.
This pretty much did it for me: http://nehe.gamedev.net/tutorial/creating_an_opengl_window_%28win32%29/13001/

If you really, really want to do it yourself, you can still have a look at how GLFW does it. In its source directory, you have a win32-specific directory, in which you have a windowing-specic .c file. You should find everything you need in this file.
This page of the OpenGL Wiki could help you, too.
The best way is NOT to do it yourself. OpenGL context creation is a bottomless abyss of complexity. You have lots of tools that can do the dirty work for you, and what's more, it'll work on Linux and Mac too
GLFW, FreeGlut, SDL, SFML are probably the most common.
See GLFW's user guide, for instance, to see how easy these libs make it to create a window :
glfwInit();
glfwOpenWindow( 300,300, 0,0,0,0,0,0, GLFW_WINDOW );
// bam, you're done
