open the project file(.dsp) file instead of (.cpp) file

I do but the project file is blank! nothing is on it! so nothing happens!

ok here's how it works... open the project file... you'll see an empty screen then open the .cpp and .h files from the same folder... then compile(F7 in VC++)... then Run(CTRL+F5 in VC++)...
and done!!!

i don't have vc++, i have devc++

devc++ gave me nuthin but problems, i suggest u do as i said and d/l it off kazaa... it may take a while to find but its worth the wait

well actually dev c++ is easier(since it's got builtin GL)... just load the .dsp file then open the .cpp and .h files and then compile and run...

what do u mean VC has no built in GL? (curious)

Could you post your code, and the error you get?

try putting this at the top of ur code

code:

#ifndef CDS_FULLSCREEN
#define CDS_FULLSCREEN 4
#endif

that code partially helped. however i still get 3 linker errors:

code:

c:\documents and settings\coutsos\desktop\nick's folder\lesson01\lesson01\lesson.o(.text+0x854):lesson.cpp: undefined reference to `ChoosePixelFormat@8'
c:\documents and settings\coutsos\desktop\nick's folder\lesson01\lesson01\lesson.o(.text+0x898):lesson.cpp: undefined reference to `SetPixelFormat@12'
c:\documents and settings\coutsos\desktop\nick's folder\lesson01\lesson01\lesson.o(.text+0xc2f):lesson.cpp: undefined reference to `SwapBuffers@4'

Mazer · **Posted:** Thu Jul 03, 2003 2:09 pm

ah... good stuff. i knew that you need to link -lopengl32 -lglu32 and -lglaux but the readme never said anything about -lgdi32

thanks catalyst.

do u have a lesson.h in your project?

Mazer · **Posted:** Thu Jul 03, 2003 6:23 pm

are you asking me? if so, then no. there's no lesson.h with the code downloaded from the tutorial. haven't you tried this already?
