[visionegg] Re: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE'

Hi Nick,

There's a bug in PyOpenGL which VisionEgg.Core attempts to workaround. The short of it is that you can do the following.

    # Do we have gl.GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE ?
    try:
        gl.GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE
    except AttributeError:
        # If OpenGL version >= 1.2, this should be defined
        # It seems to be a PyOpenGL bug that it's not.
        gl.GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE = 0x812F

See http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/visionegg/visionegg/src/Core.py?rev=1.163&view=markup for the more-error-checking version. (This code was simplified from the version there.)

Unfortunately, the careful stuff (actually checking for OpenGL versions and extensions) in VisionEgg.Core has to be done after OpenGL is initialized. So an alternative workaround this is simply to make sure you have an instance of VisionEgg.Core.Screen initialized -- this should be done automatically then.

Cheers!
Andrew

hi everybody,

i'm working on getting visionegg up and running with simple RSVP experiments but seem to have run into a snag.
