    You can safely remove that include from that source code as it doesn't appear to use an glaux stuff. I don't think that glaux should be used anymore anyway; AFAIK it's an ancient lib that leaks memory and, in any event, there don't seem to be any glaux libs and headers with dev-cpp these days, which is probably just as well.

    BTW, could you please format the code you post so that it doesn't have such a huge horizontal extent? Use the 'preview' facility of the board to check your code formatting prior to 'submitting' your post. Thanks.

    He doesn't need glaux for that example, Perspective - simply commenting out/removing the line
    Code:
    #include <gl\glaux.h>
    will suffice to build that code with dev-cpp.

    The problem is NULL statements like:
    it didnt work
    which gives us absolutely no information whatsoever about what problem(s) the OP has since encountered - my guess is not linking with opengl32, glu32 libs but, without clarification, it remains just that: a guess.
