opengl glutWireTorus工件

Question

I am working on a small animation of a sinewave being generated by a moving circle similar to this gif .

However I'm having a weird issue with using glutWireTorus for the circle. Even when I comment out all the other drawing code and leave the torus moving along the z axis alone, I get flashing lines on the inside of it:

This is the display function where everything is drawn. I use the display function as my idle function, also, I checked if that was the issue by creating an idle function and putting my update code there but it still persisted.

void display(void)
{
    glClearColor(0.f,0.f,0.f,0.f);
    glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); // clear the color buffer 
                                                           and the depth buffer

    glLoadIdentity();
    glTranslatef(0.0f,0.0f,-5.0f); //Push everything back 5 units into the scene, 
                                     otherwise we won't see the primitive 
    camera();    
    //yPrev = myCircle.y;

    glPushMatrix();         
    glTranslatef(0.0f,0.0f,t);
    glutWireTorus(0.02,1,100,100);   
    glPopMatrix();

    DrawAxes();    
    glutSwapBuffers(); //swap the buffers   
    glFlush();//Flush the OpenGL buffers to the window

    t-=0.002;

    if (t < -T)
    { 
        t = 0;
    }
}

Uh, interesting, I run into the same problem. Here is the picture using parameter

glutWireTorus(/*innerRadius*/0.3, /*outerRadius*/0.5, /*nsides*/32, /*rings*/32);

another picture using parameter

glutWireTorus(/*innerRadius*/0.3, /*outerRadius*/0.5, /*nsides*/64, /*rings*/128);

We don't know why without glutWireTorus function implementation, but we can implements our own torus, or maybe someone can explain it?
