Hi I am learning openGl and glut now and I place those necessary files like glut.h, glut32.dll and glut32.lib in the respective folders (I am using MSVC ++ 6.0). The problem is the program cannot be executed but it compiles and builds well.
The error they showed me is. what does this means? thanx in advance.PHP Code:failed to create OPENGL rendering context
There could be a few things wrong to cause this. Your graphics card might night support hardware accelleration. Your graphics drivers could be screwed up. Or there could be some other windows incompatability going on.
What I would try first is uninstalling your graphics driver, then rebooting. After reboot install the latest graphics driver you can find on the internet for your card. After another reboot, see if that fixed anything.
thanx but it didn't work...
glut.h
Please check out this.
Yes, talking of checking things out - how about you start with Rule 5
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
