I downloaded the source file for dev-c++ (my version is 4.01) and I'm getting the following errors: C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x38):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glViewport@16' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x45):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glMatrixMode@4' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x4d):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glLoadIdentity@0' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x84):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `gluPerspective@32' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x91):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glMatrixMode@4' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x99):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glLoadIdentity@0' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0xb7):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glShadeModel@4' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0xd1):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glClearColor@16' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0xe0):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glClearDepth@8' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0xf0):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glEnable@4' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x100):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glDepthFunc@4' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x115):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glHint@8' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x13b):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glClear@4' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x143):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `glLoadIdentity@0' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x258):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `wglMakeCurrent@8' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x282):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `wglDeleteContext@4' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x854):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `ChoosePixelFormat@8' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x898):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `SetPixelFormat@12' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x8ce):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `wglCreateContext@4' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0x914):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `wglMakeCurrent@8' C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\cchgEYfb.o(.text+0xc2f):lesson1.cpp: undefined reference to `SwapBuffers@4' why is that happenning?

add the OpenGl library to your link step.
