Extended GL Linker Troubles

[Joe Canone]

When tried to compile the Offscreendemo from frustum.org under Win98 with Visual C++ 6.0, i had to make some minor changes:

* Some loop-counters were declared twice
* changed "long long" to "long"
* dropped jpg stuff (probs with math.h)
* added #include <windows.h> before every #include <gl.h>
* added #define GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES before every #include <glext.h> - this was necessary (???)

Now all compiles fine, but the linker fails:

What's wrong, can anybody help?

linker complains because it doesn't find instances of the extensions function pointers. Seems some extension loading file is missing.
(with some PFN**** gl**** = wglGetProcAddress() in it. right now all you have is some extern PFN**** gl**** declarations.)
