Hello,

Is it possible to use SDL2 to create a window and a cube with OpenGL?

You'd think this would be easy to find, but many examples use GLUT, GLEW or GLM.

Is there a pure implementation of creating a window, that is cross platform, and then rendering a cube?

I really feel dumb asking this as it's a pretty basic demo.

Regards,

THIS IS HOW TO DO IT!!!

Code:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <math.h>

#include <SDL2/SDL.h>
#include <SDL2/SDL_opengl.h>

/* Undefine this if you want a flat cube instead of a rainbow cube */
#define SHADED_CUBE

static SDL_GLContext ctx;
static SDL_Window* window;
/* Call this instead of exit(), so we can clean up SDL: atexit() is evil. */
static void
quit(int rc)
{
if (ctx) {
/* SDL_GL_MakeCurrent(0, NULL); *//* doesn't do anything */
SDL_GL_DeleteContext(ctx);
}
SDL_DestroyWindow( window );
SDL_Quit();
exit(rc);
}

static void
Render()
{
static float color[8][3] = {
{1.0, 1.0, 0.0},
{1.0, 0.0, 0.0},
{0.0, 0.0, 0.0},
{0.0, 1.0, 0.0},
{0.0, 1.0, 1.0},
{1.0, 1.0, 1.0},
{1.0, 0.0, 1.0},
{0.0, 0.0, 1.0}
};
static float cube[8][3] = {
{0.5, 0.5, -0.5},
{0.5, -0.5, -0.5},
{-0.5, -0.5, -0.5},
{-0.5, 0.5, -0.5},
{-0.5, 0.5, 0.5},
{0.5, 0.5, 0.5},
{0.5, -0.5, 0.5},
{-0.5, -0.5, 0.5}
