Black screen in extended mode OpenGL when blending enabled

[russell-taylor]

@Findus79 on Gitter reports: whenever I enable blending in the display callback or in the setup, I get a black screen in ExtendedMode, it does however work in DirectMode. So I moved back the blending settings to a later point, which works now.

I created a small, bare-bones example to recreate the effect.

#include <GL/glew.h>

#include <osvr/ClientKit/Context.h>

#include <osvr/RenderKit/RenderManager.h>
#include <osvr/RenderKit/GraphicsLibraryOpenGL.h>


void setup()
{
    glClearColor(1.f, 0.f, 0.f, 1.f);
    glClearDepth(1.f);

    glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
    glDepthFunc(GL_LEQUAL);

    glEnable(GL_BLEND);
    glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
}

void osvr_display_callback(void* pUserData, osvr::renderkit::GraphicsLibrary library, osvr::renderkit::RenderBuffer buffers)
{
    osvr::renderkit::GraphicsLibraryOpenGL* gl_lib = library.OpenGL;


    glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
}



int main(int nArgs, char** pArgs)
{
    auto context = osvr::clientkit::ClientContext("com.rde.osvr_ext_mode_test");

    auto renderer = osvr::renderkit::createRenderManager(context.get(), "OpenGL");

    renderer->SetDisplayCallback(osvr_display_callback);
    renderer->OpenDisplay();

    setup();

    glewExperimental = true;
    if (GLEW_OK != glewInit())
    {
        return -1;
    }


    while (1)
    {
        context.update();
        renderer->Render();
    }

    return 0;
}

if glEnable(GL_BLEND) is set, I only get a black screen in extended mode, disabling blending fixes this. Running in direct mode it works either way.

Thanks for the excellent simple example! This has been fixed and pull requested in #268
