Re: [PyOpenGL-Users] glTexCoordPointer

[Mike C. F. <mcf...@ro...>]

Your code works (though it doesn't actually use the tex coords) on 
2.0.1.04 (CVS) version of PyOpenGL.  You can find lots of samples of 
glTexCoordPointer in OpenGLContext (though normally the d, rather than 
the f variant).  Here's a sample of use from the indexedpolygons 
geometry node:

    def _enableTextures( self ):
        """Enable the normal array if possible"""
        tex = self.texCoord
        if tex:
            tex = tex.point
            if tex:
                glTexCoordPointerd( tex )
                glEnableClientState( GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY )
                return 1

Note: had to change the drawing line in your code to:
    glDrawElementsui( GL_QUADS, indicies)
but since that's after the error you were seeing I doubt that was the 
problem.

I'm assuming you've moved on since this email (it's been sitting in my 
"should check out what's going on here pile" for too long, sorry about 
that), if not, let me know and I'll put it back in the hopper.

Enjoy,
Mike
