Trouble including gl/glu.h
Author
Hi, I kinda new in using OpenGl, I'm trying to include glu.h by simply doing this :
#include <gl/glu.h>
it seems fine, as I saw other project doing this and it compiled correctly but when I got to do this I always get like 100s of errors.
mostly this error :
"e:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\PlatformSDK\Include\gl\GL.h(1152): error C2501: 'WINGDIAPI' : missing storage-class or type specifiers"
can somebody tell me what to do ?
I'm using VC .net, is there anything that my VC/proj settings I have to change ?
How come other projects compiled correctly (on the same VC) ?

thanks ;) that solved the problem but now comes another problem..
I got all this unresolved external symbol error like this when linking/building the project :
"engine1 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _gluNewTess@0 referenced in function "public: void __thiscall CPolygon::Tesselate(void)" (?Tesselate@CPolygon@@QAEXXZ)"
now I know this maybe because I forget to include some lib, but I've done that in my project settings, I've allready add glut.lib and glut32.lib to my project linker settings.
Are there any settings that I must add/change ??

I think you need to link in opengl32.lib and glu32.lib -
Also I do not think there is a "glut.lib" file, so if it says it cannot be found, then remove it. The correct one is as you have, glut32.lib. Here is the reference for that.

dont pragma comment your libs, not all compilers interpret #pragma the same way, instead use the project options so you dont run into trouble
hope that helps

add those two libs to your project with add exisiting item under the project menu
