Hello, I am having some trouble compiling the tutorials... I copied the code word for word out of the tutorial page, but after fixing my typographical errors I am have recieved LNK2001 errors, like the one below: lesson1.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__glLoadIdentity@0 I have consulted with a friend, and he is also getting the same errors, but from a different project. Could somebody please help us. Thank You, Morgan

I''m no C++ freak (yet) so I may be way out now, but I think you''re missing a .lib file or possibly a .h file. Since that''s an OpenGL function missing. Make sure that your OGL libraries are available.

ya, that error message means you''re not linking a neede library file. It looks like it could be OpenGl.lib (or OpenGl32.lib)

Yeah, I know. I''ve tried adding it to whatever the hell that dialog is which has the long string of libs in it, but it doesn''t work. I finished the demos a long time ago. I got through atleast ten ports of my Mac demos before the problem started occurring, now my friend is having the problems too. I usually use straight GLUT (for maximum compatibility) do I do a straight Win32 Consolse application for that (I can''t remember which I used to use which worked) or a Win32 app?

if you are using VC++ you just need to add the lib (opengl32.lib probably) goto
projects -> settings
choose "link"
then in the bottom add(or make sure they are there)
opengl32.lib glu32.lib glaux.lib
and that those libs are in you lib path..
if you D/L the projec files , these are already added(you need to add them each time)
i'm not stupid i'm just swedish?
nice qoute
