We aren't mind readers !

You need to tell us much more info about what you are trying to do.
Where is the example you are using ?

The Pi4 no longer supports the closed source Broadcom GL driver. You'll have to rewrite that to either use DRM to create a surface or X. There's examples and links in the OpenGL subforum for both ways.

Most of the mesa demos work now
https://www.mesa3d.org/download.html

Some will work on Pi3B's if you use Gentoo64 which uses the OpenGL drivers.
Have not tried them on 3B+/Buster.

I have also got OpenGL working with Go and Free Pascal.
Pi4 and OpenGl are pretty mainstream now, have a look at Linux OpenGL tutorials.
