Wasnt sure which board to post this, but i thought this one was the most appropriate.
I recently got some OpenGL code, but i cant get it to run in my bloodshed compiler. I have the gl, glaux, and the glu headers.
The errors say there's a linker error, i've been told that i need to bind the headers to bloodshed, is that right? if so how do i do that, ive googles it but with no outcome. Thanks for any help
You need to link the opengl libraries. Somewhere in your options there will be a place to add linker args... you need to add* -lopengl32.lib -lglu32.lib -lglaux.lib (these are lower case 'L's)
*note: im totally guessing at the windows names for the libs, you might want to check them :)
i think i've managed to link the correct files, im down to just one error:
" Nothing to be done for `all'. "
I'm yet again stumped, lol
>>" Nothing to be done for `all'. "
This is a message from "make" which means the timestamps on the object code are newer than the source files. ie: your program is built... if its not working, try finding a clean option.
just #include <glext.h> instead of glaux
Having had a look at some of the forums it seems that lots of people are having problems with this so I've put together a page on how I got it working here :

It describes the linker errors I encountered while trying to compile with OpenGL and Bloodshed and how I resolved them.
