Qt5 OpenGL GLSL version error

Question

I\'m starting out on using OpenGL with Qt, and with Shaders (I have OpenGL experience, but not with shaders yet)

I\'m following this tutorial: http://releases.qt-pro

Answer 1

Newer QOpenGLWidget doesn't support any constructor with QGLFormat. Instead, in your main.cpp, specify the default QSurfaceFormat for all QOpenGLWidget and QOpenGLContext as following:

// main.cpp
QSurfaceFormat glFormat;
glFormat.setVersion(3, 3);
glFormat.setProfile(QSurfaceFormat::CoreProfile);
QSurfaceFormat::setDefaultFormat(glFormat);

Now you should be able to use something like #version 330 core in your shader.
