Thread: Problems Drawing OpenGL to the Client Area

I'm a bit new to this, but I'm learning more stuff everyday, so bear with me.

I've been working on trying to draw OpenGL to the client area. I've worked around most of the errors, but I keep getting linker error warnings from my compilier whenever I try to compile the program.

Here's an examples of the error message(Dev-C++):

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

I get a warning like that for every GL function I call.

The answer is probably right in front of me, but does anyone have any idea what I'm missing here?

Include the lib opengl32.lib
At least that's what it is for MSVC++.

Thanks, that helped a lot!

I also had to link to the glu32.lib file to get it to work. I don't know why though.

I know pragmas are implementation defined, but I'm pretty sure you can also put something like this in your main source file to include the libs instead of doing it through project settings... that way, if you use the source file in another project the libs are already included.

#pragma comment(lib, "opengl32.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "glu32.lib")
