    compiler won't find the included opengl files

    I have Dev-C++. I installed opengl directly into my Dev-C++ folder and then went to Project-Project options- directories. I didn't know which folder the opengl stuff was in so I added them all to both library directories and include directories. Could someone please help me out?
    My computer is awesome.

    Just put the files you want to use in your compiler's include directory and you should be ready to go.

    For the compiler,
    You add "opengl/include" to the include directory paths and "opengl/lib" to the library directory paths.

    For the linker,
    You add the names of opengl libraries to the "additional libraries" section.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
