Hi Oxillo,
I'm using the right shell:
Nigel@Elizabeth-PC MINGW32 /c/of_v0.9.0_msys2_release/examples/3d/3DPrimitivesExample
$ echo $MSYSTEM
MINGW32
but still get the make run error:
$ make run
HOST_OS=MINGW32_NT-10.0
HOST_ARCH=x86_64
checking pkg-config libraries: zlib openssl glew
[ error ] ofAppGLFWWindow: 65542: WGL: The driver does not appear to support OpenGL
[ error ] ofAppGLFWWindow: couldn't create GLFW window
[ error ] ofAppGLFWWindow: 65538: There is no current context
/bin/sh: line 1: 4488 Segmentation fault ./3DPrimitivesExample.exe
/c/of_v0.9.0_msys2_release/libs/openFrameworksCompiled/project/makefileCommon/compile.project.mk:170: recipe for target 'run' failed
make: *** [run] Error 139
The laptop I'm using is quite an old (about 7 yrs old). I see in the above that the line [error] .... 65542 ... says the driver does not appear to support Open GL? Could this be the problem? The laptop is no longer supported by Packard Bell, so the chances of getting an updated driver might be slim. Still, I'll check the web.
On the positive side, I've managed to install OF on a Mac/Xcode. I had Xcode already installed, so the whole thing took about 20 mins (vs the several hours on Windows). I must congratulate (and thank) whoever wrote the OSX/Xcode installation guide: a major league guide, par excellence! It puts the other OF installation guides in the shade IMHO.
Unless you could suggest where I could get an OpenGL compatible driver, I think we can consider this thread closed.
Thanks again for your help.
