Correct dllmaps on for OS X?

Posted Friday, 7 August, 2009 - 05:34 by blueworld in

I'm getting a DllNotFoundException on opengl32.dll when I call OpenTK.Graphics.GL.GenVertexArrays. Pretty sure it shouldn't be trying to load that, as I'm on Mac OS X. I used the dllmap section from the examples that came with OpenTk. The osx entries are:

<dllmap os="osx" dll="openal32.dll" target="/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenAL.framework/OpenAL" />
<dllmap os="osx" dll="alut.dll" target="/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenAL.framework/OpenAL" />

I noticed opengl32.dll wasn't in there, so I added:

<dllmap os="osx" dll="opengl32.dll" target="/System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/OpenGL" />

I'm surprised it's still looking for a dll. Anybody see what I'm missing?

It would be of great help if you'd be more verbose:

  • OS and Mono details
  • hardware and driver details
  • Does the example launcher work?
  • 0.9.8 or 0.9.9?
  • Does e.g. GL.Enable() cause the same exception? Does your hardware/driver support VAO?

I never found a need for a dllmap for OpenGL on Mac OS X when developing the Mac OS code, because of the dynamic loading of GL functions. So in this case, more information is needed. A small code sample which reproduces the bug would be very helpful. Are you sure that there's a current context for the calling thread before calling GenVertexArrays?

I think the problem was that I was trying to use VAO when my hardware doesn't support it. I went to VBO and now I'm not getting this exception any more.

VAOs are an OpenGL 3.0 feature, which will be introduced with Snow Leopard.
