Hi Robert, Thanks for the reply. To answer your question, glew is being used by a 3rd-party library which I can't modify and which I'm integrating with my OSG stuff so I have to accommmodate it.
Thanks, Alan. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert Osfield Sent: 18 October 2007 19:14 To: OpenSceneGraph Users Subject: Re: [osg-users] glew and graphics contexts Hi Wills, Since osgViewer by default will multi-thread the main thread calling the realize() won't be the graphics thread so your glew call will fail. If you want to init glew then do it in a realize operation - see osgshaderterrain for an example of this. I have to ask way are you trying to use glew? The OSG manages extensions checking all itself and in a way that is thread safe and robust w.r.t multiple graphics contexts. Robert.
