I think the default lib name of newest freeglut (svn) is libglut-0.dll, libglut.a and libglut.dll.a.
Hello, could you post where you got your info ? Because in my tutorials I show that you only need the actual binaries and where to put them. I also show a picture in my tutorial that has the ACTUAL name in the folder ( freeglut.dll ). And those files you listed here are no where in them. I even checked the Glut32 download and its not in those either. I even did a search in my MinGW folders and no reference to them in their either.
The original Glut32 written by Mark Kilgard was ported over by Nate Robins. And you can get the ported Glut32 Binaries if you want to see it.
http://www.xmission.com/~nate/glut.htmlNOTE : The latest version of the Glut32 library is 3.7.6 (
Dated Nov 8, 2001 )
This is the freeglut download links.
http://freeglut.sourceforge.net/index.php#downloadin that link you will see the title : Prepackaged Releases and the first link takes you to the binaries to be downloaded on this link
http://www.transmissionzero.co.uk/software/freeglut-devel/Its in there where you will see the MinGW download package that I describe in the tutorial. ( NOTE : Latest Binary release is dated
January 23rd 2010 )
Download freeglut 2.6.0‑3 for MinGW --------> freeglut-MinGW.zip
This was in reference to Windows and Linux packages according to their website.
And please keep in mind, my tutorial is only about the freeglut binary stable release version, NOT about source code that you have to compile. And the tutorial is not about Glut32 either. So please, if I am missing something here, please let me know and I'll update the Wiki accordingly. Thanks.
