Ok ive been adapting the nehegl oop version and i ended up with 4 linker errors undefined reference to `SwapBuffers@4'' undefined reference to `WndProc(HWND__ *, unsigned int, unsigned int, long)'' undefined reference to `ChoosePixelFormat@8'' undefined reference to `SetPixelFormat@12'' so can anyone help with these? Im usin devC++ btw. Also i tried just taking an unmodified version of nehes oop basecode and i got the same errors so i dont think its what ive changed. Can anyone help?

You are calling functions which are not implemented.
You either need to implement them or to link a library that does.

Documents [ GDNet | MSDN | STL | OpenGL | Formats | RTFM | Asking Smart Questions ]
C++ Stuff [ MinGW | Loki | SDL | Boost. | STLport | FLTK | ACCU Recommended Books ]

Yeah thats what i thought but i was hoping someone new where they were included?

Three of those functions are in libgdi32.a, I''m relatively sure (so link with -lgdi32). WndProc you must write yourself (or simply steal the WndProc from a NeHe tutorial).

Yeah thanks that sorted the 3 errors but the WndProc one is still there and this was straight from the nehe code. Maybe its just devc++ ill try compiling under mvc++ when I get the chance thanks for the help!
