    Umm... OpenGL & Dev?

    I have this "small" problem... I've managed to make some small programs using dev-c++, but as I tried to use gametutorials' examples I got these messages from the linker:
    undefined reference to `ChoosePixelFormat@8'
    undefined reference to `SetPixelFormat@12'
    undefined reference to `SwapBuffers@4'
    Can somebody help me?

    Make sure you're compiling it for a window app not a console app.
    Which tutorial is it?
    If a tree falls in the forest, and no one is around to see it, do the other trees make fun of it?

    You're compiling for a console project and you need a window project.
    Do this:

    Project-> Project Options -> check do not create a console is checked
    Options -> Linker -> check compile for win32

    Make sure your libraries are still linked in too.
