Thread: Newed Help

Here is my code and i have some errors like main not valid can someone tell me whats wrong...


I have been programming in OpenGL and WinAPI I forgot the Very Basics of why this could be wrong...

Let me know plz!

Umm... You might want to go back and study C++ again before continuing on with OpenGL and WinAPI.

Here are a few of the problems:
- None of your functions have a return type specified. In this case, they should all be 'int' since you are attempting to return 0.
- You have a semicolon after the last brace of one of your functions.
- You have no 'main'.

I am not commenting on your knowledge of OpenGL or WinAPI. I was just suggesting that you may have an easier time with your projects if you are better at avoiding (and detecting) simple errors such as these.
