OpenGL crash

Support

I am trying to use both vtkGenericOpenGLRenderWindow (providing glfw and glad) and vtkRenderWindowInteractor. I get this crash when initializing the interactor:

VTK is built from source so it doesn’t sound like an ABI problem.

Any clue on the possible cause of the problem?

Note: running on debian with VTK-9.2

Looks like a graphics driver issue. Can you run other OpenGL programs?

3

Yes.

I used glad and glfw. So, I tried to drop them and prefer using “VTK::glew” and “VTK::opengl” (but keeping glfw).

Still crashing but in slightly different way:

BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)

Am I supposed to pass the GLFW window to vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow::SetWindowId?
If yes how? (not clear to me)

No, VTK creates its own X11 window. Do you have a valid X11 display? On linux, VTK supports XLib as the only own windowing platform for now. If you’d like to bypass creating an X11 window, use offscreen rendering or use vtkExternalOpenGLRenderWindow to render into a GLFW window.
