I am trying to setup Visual C++ Express Edition 2005 with OpenGL and I am having trouble doing so. I downloaded, installed, and set up the Platform SDK. I need to know what to do so that I can program using OpenGL. Thanks, garand ------------------ |

what ide are you using?? if you are using visual c++ then it's all easy(or so i heard) i still can't get glaux to run on my borland c++ 5 ide i have had LLLLLOTS of experience in setting up opengl i started a thread here at ccn for someone to help me setting up but i only got 2 replies. EDIT: by the way if you can don't use either glaux or nehe's tutorials the are nice and great and all but i heard the have many known memory leaks. i'd recommend trying www.spacesimulator.net or googling for some ebooks.

one of the GLU lib memory leaks happens when you 'X' out the window. you have to close the program using in-program input ------------------ |
