glaux

I'm trying to get Nehe tutorial number 6 to compile with Bloodshed Dev-C++, but I need to find glaux. Does anyone know where I can get glaux.lib and glaux.h? It seems surprisingly hard to find. By the way, I know glaux supposedly sucks, but it's a pain to get many tutorials running without it. If you have glaux lying around, feel free to e-mail it to me at mike931201@yahoo.com.

If you're doing the NeHe tutorials, you can use his gluax replacement.

Here it is.

I do recommend, also, that you utilize another way to load textures. NeHe's IPicture code works very well with the addition of being able to load .jpg, .gif, and .ico files.
Thanks, guys.

Oddly enough, I noticed that libglaux.a was already in my Dev-C++ library, but the header file and DLL were not already present. Anyone know what the deal is with this?

Also, what's the deal with the .a extension being used for libraries? Is this different than .lib?

I'm not sure either, but I believe it's compiler specific.

.lib is MSVC++
.a is gcc(Dev-C++ is an IDE that runs gcc)
Ok. I decided to check out Nehe's Ipicture code. I tried compiling with Dev-C++, but I got the following errors:

[Linker error] undefined reference to `IID_IPicture'
[Linker error] undefined reference to `OleLoadPicturePath@24'

Anyone know how to get this working? The project file that comes with Nehe's code is for Visual C++, so it might be a bit of a hassle getting it working with Bloodshed.
