ok thank you and sorry for the late reply, i still can't resolve this issue. i would be very grateful for any help i can get for my graphics engine here.

this is my main.java which contains the glautodrawable init(), display(), etc methods:

as you will see, im using virtual subclassing polymorphism to enable scene switching functionality here:

so in the init() function it assigns an activeScene variable to an instance of some subclass of Scenes:
see here:

my problem is when i try to switch scenes via a keyboard event from the starting scene. this file has no access to a glcontext:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qonP2fubHHEAWcH_kFG839Hii4aejgqv/view?usp=drive_link

it says theres no context for the thread. i'd really love to fix this problem so i can move on, and more than that, know how to properly deal with the context for my whole app because i think im doing it wrong where every method that needs a gl function has to get a context first, it doesn't right...thanks for any help
