object reference not set to instance of object on a static method call

so im trying to use an opengl binding package (Veldrid.OpenGLBinding) but, when i call any of the methods, it says "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". I'm guessing I'm not using it right but it has absolutely zero documentation so I'm lost

When you ask a question, make sure you include as much detail as possible. Such as code, the issue you are facing, and what you expect the result to be. Upload code here https://paste.mod.gg/ (see $code for more information on how to paste your code)

are you in release mode?

TheRanger•11/21/23, 5:13 AM

also we usually use (Most Recommended) or

nutOP•11/21/23, 5:14 AM

i didnt wanna use either of those because they lock you into their windowing system that i dont like

nutOP•11/21/23, 5:14 AM

i wanted to just use glfw windowing directly

nutOP•11/21/23, 5:14 AM

and it doesnt work in debug nor release mode

you know, extend IWindow, all your code goes in OnUpdateFrame, OnRenderFrame, etc

i just wanted a more c style glfw setup

TheRanger•11/21/23, 5:16 AM

never used OpenGL.NET so no idea

nutOP•11/21/23, 5:17 AM

do you know of anything that doesnt lock you into the windowing system

nutOP•11/21/23, 5:18 AM

i thought silk would work since it had glfw bindings but it didnt have any opengl bindings i could use

TheRanger•11/21/23, 5:18 AM

did you follow the tutorial exactly? perhaps you missed something

nutOP•11/21/23, 5:18 AM

yeah, ithink

TheRanger•11/21/23, 5:20 AM

found some code in so

TheRanger•11/21/23, 5:20 AM

TheRanger•11/21/23, 5:21 AM

perhaps you need to initialize it this way

nutOP•11/21/23, 5:22 AM

where did you find that?

TheRanger•11/21/23, 5:22 AM

stack overflow

nutOP•11/21/23, 5:22 AM

could you link it

nutOP•11/21/23, 5:22 AM

my glfw might be the problem (somehow?? idk)
