wglCopyContext with pbuffer ??
Author
Hi
Short:
after wglCopyContext on pbuffer which is target for texture, it returns FALSE and GetLastError() = ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE or driver crashes with "Access Violation" if the current context is a source context [dead]
It's very importand for me that pbuffer and rendering context ( source one ) both have this same settings.
I even tried glPush/PopAttrib() but it's not cross context.
i don't want to do it "by hand" using glGet() [sick]
thanks for any halp
Make sure the source context is not current before copying.
All in all, wglCopyContext is considered evil. Many drivers have trouble implementing it correctly, and using it will most likely introduce a lot of instabilities on some hardware. Then, it's far from being an efficient function. In short, avoid using it.

Yes... i tried that at the beginning, i even tried something stupid like
wglMakeCurrent( null, null );
of curse... without luck [depressed]
Ok, then i see the best i can do is to write own copyContext
Thanks Yann L

you don't want to use the same context on the pbuffer and the window?
I want them to have this same settings like lighting, texture modes etc. every thing that you can Push/Pop using glPush/PopAttrib().
