How to call :OGL Convolution Filter

in the german forum a user ask :

how to call the ogl Convolution Filter .

bmax :

filter:Float[] = [0.00000067, 0.00002292, 0.00019117, 0.00038771, 0.00019117, 0.00002292, 0.00000067, 0.00002292, 0.00078633, 0.00655965, 0.01330373, 0.00655965, 0.00078633, 0.00002292, 0.00019117, 0.00655965, 0.05472157, 0.11098164, 0.05472157, 0.00655965, 0.00019117, 0.00038771, 0.01330373, 0.11098164, 0.22508352, 0.11098164, 0.01330373, 0.00038771, 0.00019117, 0.00655965, 0.05472157, 0.11098164, 0.05472157, 0.00655965, 0.00019117, 0.00002292, 0.00078633, 0.00655965, 0.01330373, 0.00655965, 0.00078633, 0.00002292, 0.00000067, 0.00002292, 0.00019117, 0.00038771, 0.00019117, 0.00002292, 0.00000067]

size:int = int(sqr(filter.length))

glConvolutionFilter2D(GL_CONVOLUTION_2D, GL_LUMINANCE4, size, size, GL_LUMINANCE, GL_FLOAT, filter)

can anybody help ?

imho filter must be a pointer but i allways have an memory error

Probably like this:
glConvolutionFilter2D(GL_CONVOLUTION_2D, GL_LUMINANCE4, size, size, GL_LUMINANCE, GL_FLOAT, varptr(filter[0]) )

sorry but no

Presumably you've set up the required extension prior to calling glConvolutionFilter?

Maybe your graphics card does not support it?

This works fine for me:

SuperStrict

GLGraphics(640,480)
glewinit()

'
' Check if convolution is supported
Local extensions:String = String.FromCString(Byte Ptr(glGetString(GL_EXTENSIONS))).Replace(" ","~n")
If extensions.Contains( "GL_ARB_imaging" ) = False
	Print "GL_ARB_imaging not available"
	End
EndIf
If glConvolutionFilter2D = Null
	Print "glConvolutionFilter2D not available!"
	End
EndIf

"GL_ARB_imaging not available". bingo?
