Devc++ Hints for OpenGL

The devc++ compiler can be downloaded from:
http://www.bloodshed.net
It seems to be a reasonably good, free way to create OpenGL programs under Windows.

To use Devc++ for creating an OpenGL executable program :
Check that glut32.dll is in your windows\system directory.

Choose File -> project options
under linker use the addlib button to add lib/libglut32.a and lib/libopengl32.a
under directories add the following -lopengl -lglut32

Type in your program.

Under execute choose compile -- if there are no errors this will produce a Makefile and executable.
