Re: [PyOpenGL-Users] FBOs

[Alejandro S. <as...@gm...>]

Hi Ian,

Thank you for your answer. I reviewed the link you provided as well as a
couple of its references.

Embarrassingly enough, the problem seems to be the fact that I misread the
OpenGL docs. I was under the impression that the glCheckFramebufferStatus
function expected the attachment point as its parameter, whereas in fact it
was expecting the target (namely GL_FRAMEBUFFER). This is why I was getting
an "invalid enumerant" exception.

Your point regarding the need to use a Renderbuffer is completely valid,
however, they only seem to be mandatory when attaching to the depth and
stencil buffers.

Thank you for the help.

Best,
Alejandro.-
