RE: [PyOpenGL-Users] Re: Have exceptions terminate glutMainLoop (Tarn Weisner Burton)

[Tarn W. B. <twb...@us...>]

| More precisely, the debate is about mapping Python exceptions
| with glErrors -
| Python code is being run under the control of a glut function -.
|
| Does anybody knows what happens is a glError is raised by opengl in a
| glutMainLoop() callback function ?

See

g.html

GL Errors are the same as Python exceptions in PyOpenGL2.  If an exception
gets raised in a callback and is not caught by the user's code, then
PyOpenGL will catch it and print a traceback or exit if the exception is
SystemExit.
