First download the development of essential files: http://www.opengl.org/resources/libraries/glut/glutdlls37beta.zip

 

To install glut in Windows:

1. Unpack the downloaded package and obtain 5 files.

Configuration Under Visual Studio 2005: 

2. Search for "Gl. h, and find the folder where it is located (if it is visualstudio2005, it should be the "Vc \ platformsdk \ include \ GL folder" under its installation directory "). Put the extracted glut. h in this folder.

3. Put the extracted glut. lib and glu32.lib in the folder where the static library is located (for visualstudio2005, it should be the "Vc \ Lib" folder under its installation directory ).

Configuration Under Visual Studio 2008: 

2. Search for "Gl. h, and find the folder where it is located (if it is visualstudio2008, it should be the "Vc \ include \ folder" under its installation directory "). Put the extracted glut. h in this folder.

3. Put the extracted glut. lib and glu32.lib in the folder where the static library is located (for visualstudio2008, it should be the "Vc \ Lib" folder under its installation directory ).

 

 

4. Put the extracted glut. dll and glu32.dll In the System32 folder under the operating system directory. (Typical location: c: \ windows \ system32) 

 

Create an OpenGL project:

 

Taking Visual Studio as an example.

Select File-> New-> Project, select Win32 console application, select a name, and then press OK.

Click application settings on the left of the displayed dialog box, locate the empty project, and click Finish.

Then addCodeFile named "OpenGL. c". Use. C as the end of the file.

It's just like the normal project.

Assign the following code to OpenGL. C and press F5.

 Code

// # Include <Gl/glut. h> // In vs2005
# Include < GLUT. h > // In vs2008
Void Mydisplay ( Void )

{

Glclear (gl_color_buffer_bit );

Glrectf ( - 0.5f , - 0.5f , 0.5f , 0.5f );

Glflush ();

}

Int Main ( Int Argc, Char   * Argv [])

{

Gluinit ( & Argc, argv );

Gluinitdisplaymode (glu_rgb | Glu_single );

Gluinitwindowposition ( 100 , 100 );

Gluinitwindowsize ( 400 , 400 );

Glucreatewindow ( " First OpenGLProgram " );

Gludisplayfunc ( & Mydisplay );

Glumainloop ();
Return   0 ;

}

 

The result is as follows:
