Hi folks, I have been trying to build the opengl sample project with our latest release 3.1.2 on multiple platforms. Windows and Linux have worked out perfectly well, but macOS has seen some setbacks.
Everything compiles OK, but upon running and seeing a flash of the GL window, there pops up a run-time error at void MyGLCanvas::OnPaint(...) at line SwapBuffers(), and the error is Thread 1: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x1082cf000). Step into one level down to glcanvas.mm, and it's the objective-c line "[context flushBuffer] causing all the grief. Beyond there is the assembly code which doesn't make a whole lot sense to me, but I still copy paste it down below. Toggling between dynamic/static, 64/32bit doesn't make a difference.
Has anyone run into this issue as well? The other OpenGL samples, isosurf, penguin and cube all work fine. Unfortunately, the pyramid example is so important since it's the only one that uses the modern opengl standards. My guess is somehow the OpenGL 3.2 render context got corrupted or not set properly. I would greatly appreciate it if anybody can give me heads up in fixing this problem.
======================= Basic setup ===================
wxWidgets version: 3.1.2
Platform: MacOS High Sierra 10.13.5
Xcode version: 9.4.1
Build: dynamic/static with 64bit/32bit all tried
==================== pyramid.cpp =======================
void MyGLCanvas::OnPaint( wxPaintEvent& WXUNUSED(event) )
{
// This is a dummy, to avoid an endless succession of paint messages.
// OnPaint handlers must always create a wxPaintDC.
wxPaintDC dc(this);
// Avoid painting when we have not yet a size
if ( m_winHeight < 1 || !m_oglManager )
return;
// This should not be needed, while we have only one canvas
SetCurrent(*m_oglContext);
// Do the magic
m_oglManager->Render();
SwapBuffers(); >>>> Thread 1: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x106665000)
}
==================== glcanvas.mm =======================
bool wxGLCanvas::SwapBuffers()
{
WXGLContext context = WXGLGetCurrentContext();
wxCHECK_MSG(context, false, wxT("should have current context"));
[context flushBuffer]; >>>>> Thread 1: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x106665000)
return true;

OpenGL pyramid project run-time error on Xcode cocoa Topic is solved
Re: OpenGL pyramid project run-time error on Xcode cocoa
Can you try a different [higher] version?Platform: MacOS High Sierra 10.13.5
I don't have a Mac, but I've read somewhere about some wrong OpenGL stuff in some OSX versions.
Re: OpenGL pyramid project run-time error on Xcode cocoa
Hey Manolo, thanks so much for the tip!
It's working with macOS 10.14.0 and Xcode 10.1. I am surprised it works even without adding any OpenGL framework to the project.
