无法在QWIndow（Qt5）中使用OpenGL启用深度测试

Question

I'm trying to write a simple OpenGL application in Qt 5.2 using a QWindow. I can't seem to enable depth testing. I've simplified the QWindow OpenGL example heavily: I'm drawing a triangle with coloured vertices, followed by a triangle with white vertices. The white triangle has larger Z coordinates, so should appear behind the coloured triangle. It doesn't.

I'm explicitly setting the QWindow's surface format's depth buffer size to 24, but when I check with the QWindow::format() function, the depth buffer size is 0. With QGLFormat, I know there's a setDepth() function that you can use to turn on the depth buffer, but there's no similar function in QSurfaceFormat.

What am I doing wrong?

My code...

testWindow.cpp:

#include <QApplication>
#include <QDialog>
#include <QLabel>
#include <QResizeEvent>
#include <QSurfaceFormat>
#include <QWidget>
#include <QWindow>
#include <QVBoxLayout>

#include "SphereWindow.h"

class GLDialog : public QDialog
{
public:
  GLDialog(QWidget *parent = 0, Qt::WindowFlags f = 0) : QDialog(parent, f)
  {
    QVBoxLayout *layout = new QVBoxLayout(this);

    QSurfaceFormat format;
    format.setSamples(16);
    format.setDepthBufferSize(24);

    qDebug() << "requested format:" << format;

    window = new SphereWindow;
    window->setFormat(format);

    qDebug() << "actual format:" << window->format();

    window->render();

    QWidget *glWidget = QWidget::createWindowContainer(window, this);
    layout->addWidget(glWidget);

  }

  ~GLDialog()
  {
    delete window;
  }

protected:
  void resizeEvent(QResizeEvent *event)
  {
    window->resize(event->size());
    window->render();
  }

private:
  SphereWindow *window;



};


int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  QApplication app(argc, argv);

  QDialog *dlg = new GLDialog;

  dlg->resize(640,480);
  dlg->show();

  return app.exec();
}

The problem was this: I was setting the surface format after calling my SphereWindow constructor, but creating a QOpenGLContext and setting its format inside the constructor. The result was that the context wasn't getting a depth buffer. I've moved the calls to QOpenGLContext::setFormat() and QOpenGLContext::create() to my SphereWindow::initialize() function, and depth buffering is working for me now.

SphereWindow::SphereWindow(QWindow *parent)
: QWindow(parent), 
_initialized(0), 
_program(0), 
_backgroundColour(Qt::black) 
{
  setSurfaceType(QWindow::OpenGLSurface);
  create();

  qDebug() << "format:" << format();


  _context = new QOpenGLContext(this);
  /* Move these lines into initialize() */
//   _context->setFormat(requestedFormat());
//   _context->create();
}

...

void SphereWindow::initialize()
{
  _context->setFormat(requestedFormat());
  _context->create();

  _context->makeCurrent(this);
  _program = new QOpenGLShaderProgram(this);
  _program->addShaderFromSourceCode(QOpenGLShader::Vertex, vertexShaderSource);
  _program->addShaderFromSourceCode(QOpenGLShader::Fragment, fragmentShaderSource);
  _program->link();

  _program->bind();

  _posAttr = _program->attributeLocation("posAttr");
  _colAttr = _program->attributeLocation("colAttr");

  _program->release();



  initializeOpenGLFunctions();
}

As I mentioned in a comment above, I had pretty much identical code in a QGLWidget-based setup, and depth buffering worked "out of the box". I guess QGLWidget (or QGLFormat?) must have a depth buffer turned on by default, and QWindow (or QSurfaceFormat?) doesn't.
