Hi all! I am trying to compile an example from Dave Astle's More OpenGL Programming book (the code can be downloaded free here : http://glbook.gamedev.net/moglgp/code.asp) . I am using vs2005. I noticed that I had to convert the project in order to open it. I also had some initial errors of some undefined variables (although they are already defined) So I fixed all that and finally managed to try to compile. I then get the single error "Cannot find libc.lib" I have googled and tried all the solutions and none seem to work. I can't even see libc.lib being included in the project. Among some things I have tried is to disable the the Buffer Security check, ignore default libraries, and also tried to download a compiled freeglut_static.lib and renaming it to libc.lib etc. None seems to work. I can compile other OpenGL projects fine though - the ones from NeHe for example. I am wondering if anyone have encountered the same problem and found a solution? Thanks.

Right, I manually linked the project to my VS2005 lib folder which contains LIBC.dll.

got tons of errors but the first line is this:

1>LIBCMTD.lib(crt0init.obj) : warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'libc.lib' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library

I tried /NODEFAULTLIB and I get even more errors :<

I also checked the project settings and libc.lib doesn't seem to be linked anywhere. What am I missing here ...

In the linker settings I just add "libc.lib" to the "ignore" settings part.

One of the libraries you are linking to is probably compiled against a different version of the C runtime (eg libc instead of libcmt). Ensure all libraries (at least statically linked ones) are compiled against the same runtime.

Hmmm not sure what you mean there... can you please elaborate more?

I tried that too and got errors like these:

It looks like you need glee.lib

This is how I have vs setup:

Thanks! That worked finally. Looks like I need the 3 additional libraries.
