VertexArrays with sf::Quads won't render

[MarioLiebisch]

Subject pretty much sums it up.

If I try to draw sf::VertexArray(sf::Quads) with four vertices nothing happens at all. Will probably try to fix it on my own once I've got some time, but don't want it getting lost.

GL_QUADS doesn't exist in OpenGL ES. If you look at your standard output you should see a nice message saying that.

[MarioLiebisch]

Yes, I'm aware of that limitation, but I expected an already implemented workaround. Anyway, going to come up with some patch soon™.

[LaurentGomila]

The only possible workaround would be to create a new vertex array on the fly and split every quad to a pair of triangles, but that would be really inefficient. I prefer to deprecate the sf::Quads primitive type rather than to offer a hacky support and giving users a bad habit.

[MarioLiebisch]

You're right, didn't think about having to store the fake-quad... So yeah, might be the only proper way to "fix" this.
