Hi there,
I defined GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES to enable the automatic linkage in my application, and right inside calling glTexStorage2DEXT, it crashes.
This is the binary dump I got if it helps:
0x10044f4e2: leaq 0x161f67(%rip), %rdi ; gles::extensions::EXT_TextureStorage& gles::State::getgles::extensions::EXT_TextureStorage()::obj

0x10044f501: callq 0x100440d10 ; gles::update_gl_error(gles::Context const&)
My environment:
SDK 3.2
OSX 10.9.2/Macbook Pro mid-2010
My code is very similar to this sample code: OGLES2HelloAPI_OSX.mm, (I only moved the code around to fit my layout). I also modified the original example by adding this function; it didn’t crash but report a INVALID_OPERATION error. The code is added after eglMakeCurrent, as follows:
GLuint tex;
glGenTextures(1, &tex);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, tex);
glTexStorage2DEXT(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 1, GL_BGRA8_EXT, 128, 128);
I also use some other extensions, i.e. GL_OES_vertex_array_object, and it crashes too, in a similar manner.
Any thought?
Thanks,
Hao
This is the output from the modified sample:
(Info) Hardware profile: None
(Info) PVRVFrame version 9.6
(Error) in function: glTexStorage2DEXT GL: 502
(GL_INVALID_OPERATION) VF: A0001 (an internal error occurred)
After a bit more investigation, I made a dumb mistake that’s misleading the problem… I enabled “break at all exceptions” in xcode, and it looked to me as a crash. However, the issue still occurs - instead of crashing, it always reports 502 error, and this happens to glGenVertexArraysOES as well.

Hello Wuh
Instead of defining GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES, you should retrieve a pointer to any extension function you want to use by first calling glGetString to check if the extension is supported, and then eglGetProcAddress with the name of the function.
PFNGLTEXSTORAGE2DEXTPROC glTexStorage2DEXT = 0;
if(strcmp((char*)(glGetString(GL_EXTENSIONS)), “GL_EXT_texture_storage”) == 0)
{
glTexStorage2DEXT = eglGetProcAddress(“glTexStorage2DEXT”);
}
else
{
// extension is not supported
}
…
if(glTexStorage2DEXT)
{
glTexStorage2DEXT(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 1, GL_BGRA8_EXT, 128, 128);
}
@Chris,
Thanks for your reply! I did that too; as I mentioned in the comment, the extension does include GL_EXT_texture_storage.
Are you definitely retrieving the functions explicitly using eglGetProcAddress? Using the prototypes defined in the headers won’t work because the library doesn’t export extension functions.
Otherwise, you could try updating the emulator to the latest version. You may be hitting a bug which we fixed where OES_vertex_array_object operations weren’t being initialised in some cases, but it sounds like something different.
@Chris,
Yes, I was using eglGetProcAddress to retrieve the function address explicitly and it gave me the same error.
From the crash dump, it looked like it happened around checking the egl context. One of my guesses was that as glTexStorage2DEXT is escalated to the standard API, the SDK got confused about the current context because the code may be shared for both GLES2 and GLES3? But OES_vertex_array_object gave me the similar error…
I will try to upgrade to the latest SDK and see if that helps.
Thanks,
Hao
@Chris,
After updating the SDK, it does help! It looks like all the symbols are removed from the lib so I have to retrieve them by eglGetProcAddress. However there is a new problem: even the extension strings include GL_EXT_texture_storage, but the function returns null pointer. And when I looked through some example code, (CPVRTgles2Ext::LoadExtensions), some of them are actually getting null returns. Is this expected? or a bug?
Thanks,
Hao
Hi Wuh
Unfortunately it turns out we don’t support EXT_texture_storage on OSX right now. The reason for this is we rely on the “compatibility” OpenGL profile to simplify the emulation process. Sadly OSX doesn’t support the operations required to emulate EXT_texture_storage when in compatibility mode. The name shouldn’t appear in the extension string either, so that sounds like a bug.
Support for EXT_texture_storage may come in a future update. Better feature support on OSX, including ES 3 support, is something we are currently looking into.
@Chris,
Thanks! It makes a lot sense now. Hopefully, you guys can fix this kind of bugs in the next release; but for now, the reliable to check the extension is to fetch the function pointer and check if it’s null.
Thanks,
Hao
