The dynamic array! Thank you so much, I changed that on another
file and it finally drew the triangle. And I ran your code and
it works brilliantly. I should now be in a comfortable position
to digest all this information now. Can't thank you enough.
One thing I overlooked. In lines where a variable is both
declared and initialized, like this one:
GLFWwindow* window = glfwCreateWindow(...);
I normally let the compiler use type inference as I did in the
manifest constant declarations:
auto window = glfwCreateWindow(...);
IMO, when you're dealing with long or ugly type names, it makes
the code look cleaner.
Yeah, it is nicer to read.
Now I wonder if I can load shaders from separate files (à la
http://www.opengl-tutorial.org/beginners-tutorials/tutorial-2-the-first-triangle/).
