LWJGL OpenGL version test case

    ContextAttribs contextAttributes = new ContextAttribs(3, 2);
    contextAttributes.withForwardCompatible(true);
    contextAttributes.withProfileCore(true);

    Display.setDisplayMode(new DisplayMode(800,600));
    Display.create(pixelFormat, contextAttributes);

    System.out.println("OS name " + System.getProperty("os.name"));
    System.out.println("OS version " + System.getProperty("os.version"));
    System.out.println("LWJGL version " + org.lwjgl.Sys.getVersion());
    System.out.println("OpenGL version " + glGetString(GL_VERSION));

    // On my laptop, this outputs:
    //
    //   OS name Mac OS X
    //   OS version 10.7.4
    //   LWJGL version 2.8.4
    //   OpenGL version 2.1 NVIDIA-7.18.18
    //
    // Later on I use GL30.glGenVertexArrays and I get a 
    // "Function is not supported" exception.
    //
    // I assume this is due to the OptnGL version.
    //
    // From what I can tell, LWJGL 2.8.0+ should try to select OptnGL 3.2.
    // This doesn't appear to be the case (or maybe I'm not getting something).
  }
}

Hey, did you figure out how to get openGL 3+ working with osx and lwjgl? I found this gist while searching for a solution to this same problem.

thanks, really helped me with shader version errors.

Should have a try-catch around Display.setDisplayMode and Display.create
