you can use `GlfwNativeWindow`

you can use

GlfwNativeWindow

GlfwNativeWindow

GlfwNativeWindow

GlfwNativeWindow

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:13 PM

thank you

PPerksey you can use `GlfwNativeWindow`

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:15 PM

but what do I do with these?

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:16 PM

explain in more depth the problem, what are you doing

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:16 PM

well I don't really know how I could besides, just trying to make a GL api instance from a GLFW window handle

Iinnoxious but what do I do with these?

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:16 PM

nothing

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:17 PM

I've never really used Silk.NET so a little confused

Iinnoxious I've never really used Silk.NET so a little confused

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:17 PM

okay so this is a new project?

LLyris the Kitori okay so this is a new project?

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:17 PM

yeah +/-

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:17 PM

if such, id look at our tutorials

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:17 PM

var x = new GlfwNativeWindow(myHandle);
var y = GL.GetApi(x);

var x = new GlfwNativeWindow(myHandle);
var y = GL.GetApi(x);

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:17 PM

but yeah if this is a new project just use our abstractions

LLyris the Kitori if such, id look at our tutorials

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:17 PM

they explain the concepts well, and how to use our windowing abstractions

PPerksey ```cs var x = new GlfwNativeWindow(myHandle); var y = GL.GetApi(x); ```

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:18 PM

though

PPerksey but yeah if this is a new project just use our abstractions

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:18 PM

they didnt really work for me, so someone suggested I use GLFW

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:18 PM

wdym didnt work

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:18 PM

that was probably A Bad Suggestion

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:19 PM

or at least for that problem

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:19 PM

what issues were you seeing?

PPerksey that was probably A Bad Suggestion

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:19 PM

oh god the @jvyden4ism is spreading

LLyris the Kitori wdym didnt work

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:19 PM

the window wouldn't clear, it would look like it's not responding, and it'd just crash in a bit

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:20 PM

GLFW doesnt do that though

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:20 PM

weird

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:20 PM

if we saw code we could probably tell you why

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:20 PM

that sounds like you're writing code that blocks the event loop

PPerksey if we saw code we could probably tell you why

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:20 PM

I think I might still have it on github

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:21 PM

or calling swapbuffers when windowing already does, that could cause not clearing, but shouldnt crash

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:22 PM

ah I dont have the old code sadly

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:22 PM

where were you asking these problems?

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:23 PM

idk some server, I was talking a friend who uses Silk.NET

Lyris the Kitori•4/7/23, 9:26 PM

we would highly reccomend using the abstractions, and if you run into the problem again we'll be able to help

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:26 PM

idk, I've already restructured my code to use GLFW, I might aswell go with it

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:27 PM

anyways

Iinnoxious though

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:27 PM

turns out it was IGLContext i was after

PerkseyOP•4/7/23, 9:27 PM

or GlfwContext rather

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:28 PM

yeah I found that out by digging into the code

innoxious•4/7/23, 9:29 PM

alright it works now

gnations•4/7/23, 10:19 PM

When trying to run my code, I get this error:

 Unhandled exception. System.PlatformNotSupportedException: GLFW is not supported on this platform.

 Unhandled exception. System.PlatformNotSupportedException: GLFW is not supported on this platform.

Is there a way to force the Window to use SDL (since that's the backend I am targeting)?

darth•4/7/23, 10:41 PM

coming from wgpu and rust land, I noticed silk was linked on the wgpu-native github page, but silk itself doesn't mention wgpu

does that mean that silk doesn't build on wgpu and became its own thing, or does it use the same validation layers and stuff?

what I found a bit surprising is that silk is a lot more than wgpu, as it includes sdl/glfw, openal, etc.

darth•4/7/23, 10:44 PM

also silk mentions a webgpu backend, but not WASM, which makes me a bit confused
