Problems with linker (old DevC++ user)

(1/1)

exsoul:
Hello everyone.

As the title says, i've been using an good old DevC++ to run my projects, but after all theese years i've decided to change editor because i was sick of some of its features. So i started with Code::Blocks.

And here is my problem. In Dev if i wanted to install anything i needed only do use devpacks installer and that was all. But in Code::Blocks this feature doesn't work. I can't manage to download OPENGLUT, GLEW and GLAUX which i am using in my projects and i have no clue how to do this manually. Can someone give me a little step-by-step tutorial how to install theese packages?

Best regards

look in plugins for devpak updater/installer at first run it will ask you a few questions about where you want the devpaks downloaded/installed select your mingw dir in the file browser and hit it. After that it wants to download a mirror list. The default one is empty so select devpaks.org community paks from the dropdown list and you should get a list of stuff you can select to download/install. If you look in OpenGL in the list you should find freeglut ;)

A little bit off topic here, but do you know, that there is a successor of bloodshet Dec-C++ 4.9.9.2 at http://orwellengine.blogspot.com/ ;)
