Min opengl version?

[arjunmenon]

Hey i have 4.1, it seems leif required 4.5. Not sure we can update to 4.5 if underlying driver itself does not support that, atleast based on this - https://askubuntu.com/questions/795647/how-to-install-opengl-4-0-or-4-5-for-developing

How to go about this then? I tried building it with 4.1 itself, it installed but while running the example, i get segmentation fault.

I think coming from here, lf_init_glfw(800, 600, window);

#0  0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()

Basic glfw examples run fine in my system.

I had this issue in the past as well. There's a GLFW function call in renderer_init that only exists from 4.5 onwards. At this point, Leif would have to either rewrite the function with the old API or declare a minimum OpenGL version (as it does currently in install.sh).

Got it, thanks. Let me try that out.
