GLM: function taking degrees as a parameter is deprecated (WHEN USING RADIANS)

Question

Currently using VC++ 11 with SDL2, GLM, and GLEW. The issue is stemming from GLM when I attempt to do two things: Create a rotation matrix, create a perspective camera matrix (3

Answer 1

#define degreesToRadians(x) x*(3.141592f/180.0f)

the static part should be resolved at compile time by the compiler, just surround any degrees to glm stuff with that macro and you are done. Also add

#define GLM_FORCE_RADIANS

before including and glm headers, so that it will by default use radians instead of degrees

Answer 2

Instead of manual transformation you can use

glm::radians(degrees) // from degrees to radians. 

Or

glm::degrees(radians) // from radians to degrees.
