Devcpp linker -_-

Hi,

In the "project options" panel, go in the "parameters" tab, then in the "linker" section, add :

-lglut32
-lglu32
-lopengl32


and recompile.
-lglut32 allow you to use the glut function (window, keyboard, mouse management)
-lglu32 allow you to use the glu functions (like gluPerspective if I remember well)
-lopengl32 allow you to use all the gl functions like glClear(), etc.

many thx paic,
your help is good (sorry for my bad english) so all the gl- and glut- function have been linked ... but...
now i have 4 linker error about some function not situated the file:

[Linker error] undefined reference to joyReleaseCapture@4'
[Linker error] undefined reference to joySetCapture@16'
[Linker error] undefined reference to joyGetPosEx@8'
[Linker error] undefined reference to joyGetPosEx@8'

can say me something about this ?

Try -lwinmm perhaps?

good, it compile... but why ?
what is winmm ?
every time i have to use glut, i have to link this winmm ?

It may come from the glut version you're using. Sometimes, to use a library, you have to include another one.

Anyway, when you have those linker error, copy the name of the function (joyReleaseCapture, for example : without the @XXX) and past into the msdn search tool (msdn.microsoft.com) then click on the link to the function (for joyReleaseCapture : http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/multimed/htm/_win32_joyreleasecapture.asp) and at the end of the page, you have the header to include (this, you don't need, since it's a linker error) and the lib to include. In this case : "Library: Use Winmm.lib" So try -lWinmm.

With this process, you can solve almost every basic linker error by yourseulf ^^
