Setting up DirectX9 SDK or OpenGL GLUT for CB 12.11 on Windows XP

JohnSkywalker:
Hi,
I have big problem as I need to use one of those graphics libraries and each version I check and unpack on my computer seems to be missing some files or something.

When I try to compile example GLUT code whic is contained in CB 12.11 which is :

--- Code: ---/*
* GLUT Shapes Demo
*
* Written by Nigel Stewart November 2003
*
* This program is test harness for the sphere, cone
* and torus shapes in GLUT.
*
* Spinning wireframe and smooth shaded shapes are
* displayed until the ESC or q key is pressed. The
* number of geometry stacks and slices can be adjusted
* using the + and - keys.

Thank you in advance for helping me cause as hard as I try I can't use either glut either direct succesfully. Please don't ignore my rookie problem I have read so many tutorials how to set up both libraries and trying to do it somehow since 3 days failing all the time :/.

BlueHazzard:
I would try to search a pakage for the right compiler...

warning: ignoring #pragma comment [-Wunknown-pragmas]| seems that you are using the wrong compiler....
also this error comes from using the wrong compiler: error: redeclaration of C++ built-in type 'wchar_t' [-fpermissive]|

patchell:
I am trying to do the same thing, and have the same problem. And so far, I have not found a solution. I want to be able to build the directX apps with the MinGW compiler, but it seems that this project is not going to cooperate. I suspect I am going to have to modify the template code in order to make this compile with the gcc compiler. Am I wrong? I would sure love a little guidance as well.

patchell:
OK, well that was quick. Solved the problem myself. I made the following changes to the template code:

1. Got rid of #include "strsafe.h"
2. In several places you will find something that looks like this:
L"some string"
Well, just get rid of the L (it was a macro in the strsafe.h file).
3 Turn the winmain line to look like this:
extern "C" int WINAPI WinMain(etc.....

Lets me compile, anyway. When the program runs, I get a little window that is all blue. Hopefully, that is what the template is supposed to do.
