Defold and Rive #include <glad/gles2.h>

Day is kind!

I use Releases · defold/defold · GitHub v1.11.0 - beta Pre-release
I use Rive Releases · defold/extension-rive · GitHub

I encountered a problem:

/defold-rive/include/rive/renderer/gl/glad_custom.h
	Line 3: In file included from upload/defold-rive/src/private/renderer_context_opengl.cpp:31:
In file included from upload/defold-rive/include/rive/renderer/gl/render_context_gl_impl.hpp:8:
In file included from upload/defold-rive/include/rive/renderer/gl/gl_state.hpp:7:
In file included from upload/defold-rive/include/rive/renderer/gl/gles3.hpp:11:
'glad/gles2.h' file not found
    3 | #include <glad/gles2.h>
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As I understand it, the problem is that the editor cannot find the specified file, I need to download it separately somewhere?

Where should I dig to find a solution?

Thank’s

This is likely an issue on our end. Which OS are you using?

d_bl1n · August 30, 2025, 6:04am

WIndows 10

Thanks. Are you using an app manifest?

Can you please also create a bug report here: GitHub · Where software is built

Are you using an app manifest?

I created issue… Defold and Rive #include <glad/gles2.h> · Issue #11161 · defold/defold · GitHub
Defold and Rive #include <glad/gles2.h>
I don’t know what a manifest is.
I just downloaded the beta version of the archive for Windows, replaced my defold folder with the contents of the beta version of Defold.
Installed the Rive dependency for this version.

I got exactly the same error. I’m trying to test Rive, but got this error.

I’m using debian 12, every other example works fine, is rive so OS dependent? I wonder how it works across all platforms

Thank you!

No no, we missed one step when rebuilding the libraries. The latest version of the Rive extension has resolved the problem!

Thank you, now is working when I force my Nvidia GPU to run the example (my notebook is hybrid). I’m pretty sure it’s a problem with intel drivers probably not matching opengl required version, but I’ll leave it like that, is very easy to break the nvidia drivers if I change something.
