    OpenGL and SDL

    I just want to ask, if it's possible to use all OpenGL features with SDL only, so I don't need to setup all openGL things like OpenGL drawing context in Win32 API.

    Will I be able to use all functions without any problem?

    Yes. Check the SDL documentation & tutorials.

    You may want to look into other libraries though (if you're not interested in other SDL features) like GLFW.

    Ok. Thanks for your reply!

    GLFW looks interesting. I might be trying it someday.
