GLFW(or SDL)+OPENGL in VS express help....

[relsoft]

I started using MSVS express and with the help of lazy foo's tutorial, I was able to make an SDL app working.

However, after I started to add opengl, I get a plethora of errors related to the gl.h header.  The errors in both SDL and GLFW are the same so I'm posting the GLFW example here:

Code: [Select]

// GLFW_test.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//

#include "stdafx.h"

#include    <GL/gl.h>
#include    <GL/glu.h>
#include    <GL/glfw.h>
#include    <stdlib.h>

 int  main(   void   )
 {
      int  running    = GL_TRUE;

      //  Initialize    GLFW
      if (  !glfwInit()    )
      {
           exit(   EXIT_FAILURE     );
      }

      //  Open   an OpenGL   window
      if (  !glfwOpenWindow(      300,300,   0,0,0,0,0,0,     GLFW_WINDOW     ) )
  {
           glfwTerminate();
           exit(  EXIT_FAILURE    );
      }

      //  Main  loop
      while (  running   )
      {
           // OpenGL   rendering   goes  here...
           glClear(   GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT     );

           // Swap   front  and  back  rendering   buffers
           glfwSwapBuffers();

           // Check   if ESC  key  was  pressed   or  window  was  closed
           running   = !glfwGetKey(    GLFW_KEY_ESC    ) &&
                       glfwGetWindowParam(     GLFW_OPENED    );
      }

      //  Close  window  and  terminate    GLFW
      glfwTerminate();

      //  Exit  program
      exit(  EXIT_SUCCESS    );
 }

Project Properties:

Detect 64 bit Portability Issues = No

Code Generation:
     Runtime Library: Multi-threaded (/MT) for GLFW, Multi-threaded DLL(/MD) for SDL

Linker:
     Additional dependencies: opengl32.lib glu32.lib GLFW.lib
     system : Windows (/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS)

*I've already added the necessary include, library files in the tools->options->VC++ directories

Here's the log:

Oh, I'm linking the static GLFW.lib.

w/o the including the gl and glu headers I get this:

As a sidenote built a working GLFW+OGL example in codeblocks in like 5 minutes.  However, I would really like to use vc++ express for my windows stuff.

Again, thanks!

maybe you need to be case sensitive with adding the ogl additional dependencies:

OpenGL32.lib;GLu32.lib

[hellfire]

Hi Rel,

the first set of compile-errors looks like a missing #include <windows.h>.
The link-errors appear because GLFW was compiled with a static runtime and the rest of your project is using the dll-runtime (or vice versa).
To fix the "unresolved _WinMain@16" set linker->subsystem to "console" in the project settings.
If you're using oop you might want to have a look at sfml, too.
Which version of Visual Studio are you using now?

maybe you need to be case sensitive with adding the ogl additional dependencies

In Windows filenames are always case-insensitive.

I don't know anything on GLFW
but, if it is the window manager library, you have to put the header before the gl ones ( at least, it's often like this )

After for the libs already including free and other standard functions, maybe you can try, to no include the library coming from Microsoft ... but it doesn't work a lot usually ( it's an option in linking part, saying something about default library ( Yes / No ).

[relsoft]

Thanks for the tips guys, I'll test them in few minutes. 

I got SDL to work(after about 2 hours of nail biting work)! Yay!

[LittleWhite]

Setting the project is often the hardest part of the whole projet but once you know it, it should be ok
