SharpGL WPF Not drawing with gl.DrawArrays() and gl.VertexPointer()-CodePudding

I'm trying to use SharpGL to render in a WPF application using gl.VertexPointer() and gl.DrawArrays(). But I cannot get it to render a square. The background clears to green and I can see the FPS drawing at the bottom left of the WPF panel. When adding the code for the square, the FPS text disappears as well and I just have a blank screen.

I'm doing the same exact thing that I have in a C project which works just fine. I don't know what I'm missing or doing incorrectly.

XAML

        {
            InitializeComponent();

            glPanel.OpenGLInitialized  = glPanel_OpenGLInitialized;

            gl.EnableClientState(OpenGL.GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY);

        }

            // Clear the color and depth buffers
            gl.Clear(OpenGL.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | OpenGL.GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
            gl.LoadIdentity();
            
            // Build a rectangle
            float Width     = 100.0f;
            float Height    = 100.0f;
            float[] vertices = new float[18];
            vertices[0]  = 0;       vertices[1] = 0;        vertices[2] = 0.0f;

            vertices[6]  = Width;   vertices[7] = Height;   vertices[8] = 0.0f;

            vertices[9]  = 0;       vertices[10] = 0;       vertices[11] = 0.0f;
            vertices[12] = Width;   vertices[13] = Height;  vertices[14] = 0.0f;
            vertices[15] = Width;   vertices[16] = 0;       vertices[17] = 0.0f;


            // If I remove this whole Begin()-End() section, it will render the Open GL FPS.  With this draw code here, it does not render the FPS.
            gl.Begin(OpenGL.GL_TRIANGLES);

            gl.Translate(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
            gl.Color(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
            gl.VertexPointer(3, 0, vertices);
            gl.DrawArrays(OpenGL.GL_TRIANGLES, 0, 6);

            gl.End();

            gl.Flush();
        }

With Draw code...

Without Draw code...

CodePudding user response：

As mentioned by @BDL, glBegin() and glEnd() are not used in this case.

As mentioned by @Rabbid76, glEnableClientState(OpenGL.GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY) should be removed since I am not using texture coordinates.

Thanks for the help guys!

Also removing gl.Enable(OpenGL.GL_CULL_FACE) was necessary in the specific example to draw my square. As @Rabbid76 mentioned, the default winding order is counter-clockwise. My vertices are winding clockwise.
