Hi,

I know the question is pretty generic, but hopefully there's some common cause of this kind of error or something:

Basically the short version is, what can cause a GL stack UNDERflow error???

I have written a simple fragment shader in glsl for blending two texture in different classic blending modes (add, multiply, difference...); I have a few (16) instances of the same shader (an abstraction containing a [glsl_fragment], a [glsl_vertex] and a [glsl_program], the abstraction being repeated 16 times) rendering at the same time. I am using uniform variables to tell each "instance" what texture to use and I use the message [texunit ...( to [pix_texture] objects in order to "name" the textures with some numbers.

Now, I am getting some unexpected results like: the texture being used is not the one I expect, so I am trying to debug my own work since there's certainly some stupid error, but I have realized that the console shows this error message:

GL: subdesbordamiento de pila

which is in spanish and I guess it is a bad translation of "stack underflow". While I can easily think about errors I may make that may produce stack OVERflows, I really can't figure out what the hell I may have done wrong that may cause a stack UNDERflow. I don't know what kind of anomaly to look for.

At the moment I can't attach the patch, however it wouldn't be of great use: I would need to isolate the problem but I don't know where to start from. I attach the fragment shader in case it is of any help though I doubt it.

My hope is that there is something very "typical" to take care of which "usually" cause stack underflows.

For example is it a problem that I sometimes "cut off" a piece of rendering chain in order to not display some objects?? i.e.

[gemhead] | (....) | | | [spigot] | (...)

I do this very often but this is the first time I use shaders. Is there something I should do (e.g. some message to send to the [glsl_program]) when it starts/stops receiving the gemlist????

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance m.
