Hello, I've made a basic corridor using immediate OpenGL drawing and I want to transfer it to VBOs. However, it just doesn't work. The immediate drawing works fine, yet I tried to make it using VBOs and it doesn't work. Here is what I am trying to create:

And here is the code that I used for that:

      GL11.glColor3f(1F, 0F, 0F);
      GL11.glVertex3f(0.5F, 1.5F, 1.0F);
      GL11.glColor3f(0F, 1F, 0F);
      GL11.glVertex3f(0.5F, 1.5F, -15.0F);
      GL11.glColor3f(0F, 0F, 1F);
      GL11.glVertex3f(0.5F, -1.5F, -15.0F);
      GL11.glColor3f(0.5F, 0.5F, 0.5F);
      GL11.glVertex3f(0.5F, -1.5F, 1.0F);

Yet when I try to use VBOs for the same thing, it doesn't work and I just get a black window. Here is my class to create is using VBOs.
