[PyOpenGL-Users] Attribute error using PyOpenGL and PyOpenCL

[Walter W. <hom...@gm...>]

Hello,

I came across a problem and hope that you can help me,
since I could not find a solution crawling the net.

I was trying to run some examples to visualize OpenCL
calculations using OpenGL with shared buffers using

Python 3.3
PyOpenGL 3.1.0
PyOpenGL-accelarate 3.1.0
pyopencl 2014.1

The examples are similar, one that might serve as example is
https://gitorious.org/openclgltest/openclgltest

Trying to run this throws the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".\testpyopengl.py", line 234, in <module>
    mytest = test()
  File ".\testpyopengl.py", line 91, in __init__
    self.loadclData()
  File ".\testpyopengl.py", line 205, in loadclData
    self.arr_cl = cl.GLBuffer(self.ctx, mf.READ_WRITE,
int(self.arrvbo.buffers[0]))
  File "vbo.pyx", line 177, in OpenGL_accelerate.vbo.VBO.__
getattr__ (D:\Build\PyOpenGL\pyopengl-bzr\OpenGL_accelerate\src\vbo.c:2757)
AttributeError: 'numpy.ndarray' object has no attribute 'buffers'

Here are two things that might be related to the issue:

1.) PyOpenGL 3.1.0b3; Py_buffer on Python3 unsupported
https://sourceforge.net/p/pyopengl/mailman/message/32385909/

2.) This post that mentions that Python 3 might be the problem. Is that the
case?

I found that another example
https://github.com/enjalot/adventures_in_opencl/blob/master/python/part2/part2.py
was trying to fix this like

try:
    self.pos_cl = cl.GLBuffer(self.ctx, mf.READ_WRITE,
int(self.pos_vbo.buffer))
    self.col_cl = cl.GLBuffer(self.ctx, mf.READ_WRITE,
int(self.col_vbo.buffer))
except AttributeError:
    self.pos_cl = cl.GLBuffer(self.ctx, mf.READ_WRITE,
int(self.pos_vbo.buffers[0]))
    self.col_cl = cl.GLBuffer(self.ctx, mf.READ_WRITE,
int(self.col_vbo.buffers[0]))

But changing the example above like this results in

Well, that for now. I hope you have some ideas on how to fix this.

Kind regards,
Joe
