Binding CG vertex attributes

OpenGL Development JOGL Development
#1

Hello,

This seems like it must be one of the most basic things people working with Cg shaders in GL would need to do, but I can’t quite seem to get to the bottom of it right now.

My current state is that I’m struggling to get a suitable int to use as a program handle for glBindVertexAttribute… I understand from cgGLGetProgramID documentation that it

[quote]Returns 0 for profiles that do not have OpenGL programs (e.g. fp20).
[/quote]
which appears to be what’s happening to me; although even specifying arbvp1 for my vertex profile doesn’t seem to help - no errors detected, but still 0. In any case, I don’t understand what else one is supposed to do when using those profiles that return 0… am I missing something from CgGL? Calling cgGLSetParameter* seems to entail rendering in immediate mode, which is not on the agenda…
:-\

To future generations of googlers, or anyone interested (surely I can’t be the only one that misses these things)… the methods I was looking for were CgGL.cgGLEnableClientState and CgGL.cgGLSetParameterPointer (in place of glEnableClientState & glVertexAttribPointer, respectively).
