    Opengl Error

    PLease help me, I am trying to compile and run a OpenGL project using Dev C++ and when I compile I get these errors:


    [Linker error] undefined reference to `__glutInitWithExit@12'

    [Linker error] undefined reference to `__glutCreateWindowWithExit@8'

    [Linker error] undefined reference to `__glutCreateMenuWithExit@8'

    What should I do?

    You need to link with the glut32.lib library in order to use glut.

    Naturally I didn't feel inspired enough to read all the links for you, since I already slaved away for long hours under a blistering sun pressing the search button after typing four whole words! - Quzah
