binding 2d textures
Author
I want to use glGenTextures and glBindTextures to create some simple textures, but I don't have and don't want to use glaux, which nehe's tutorial (which I am currently working through) uses for this purpose. I normally use LoadImage to load a bitmap for my own little projects (they aren't leaving this computer yet...) so I would like to know how to bind an HBITMAP or something to an object. Thanks.
short answer : you cant directly.
longer answer :
You have to give glTexImage*() a pointer to the raw texture data, if you can get that from the HBITMAP then it shouldnt be a problem, however not dealing with HBITMAPs I dont know how todo it off the top of my head.

also u might wanna look at another file format instead of bmp as it doesnt handle alpha eg see tga or dds
