C++ OpenGL wireframe cube rendering blank
- by caleb.breckon
I'm just trying to draw a bunch of lines that make up a "cube". I can't for the life of me figure out why this is producing a black screen. The debugger does not break at any point.
I'm sure it's a problem with my pointers, as I'm only decent at them in regular c++ and in OpenGL it gets even worse.

"#version 150\n"
"in vec3 position;"

" gl_Position = vec4(position, 1.0);"
"}";
const char* fragmentSource =

"out vec4 outColor;"
"void main() {"
" outColor = vec4(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0);"
"}";
