I've a problem compiling with glut

[semar]

When i trie to compile a simle program i'have this message:
[rafel@phoenix rafel]$ gcc -lGLU -lGL -lglut prova.c
/usr/local/lib/libglut.so: undefined reference to `XGetExtensionVersion'
/usr/local/lib/libglut.so: undefined reference to `XFreeDeviceList'
/usr/local/lib/libglut.so: undefined reference to `XQueryDeviceState'
/usr/local/lib/libglut.so: undefined reference to `XListInputDevices'

/usr/local/lib/libglut.so: undefined reference to `XmuLookupStandardColormap'
/usr/local/lib/libglut.so: undefined reference to `XSelectExtensionEvent'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Can sombody help my?.

Looks like you also have to link with
the X libs. (-lX11)

With my Mesa set up, I don't have to do
that. Strange that it seems you need to.

Do you have a /usr/local/lib/libglut.la
file? If so, what does it say?

What does

ldd /usr/local/lib/libglut.so

say?

I have wrote a bash script to increase the development of openGL. The script helps people to compile and link Mesa 3D library.
save the text to a file cc.sh and change it to executable by chmod a+x cc.sh Then type ./cc.sh --help to see how to use it to include OpenGL library properly. It supports OpenGL 3.5, 4.0.

#!/bin/bash
# The shell script was created to compile the c++ source file *.cpp, *.c, *.cxx
# , and debug using the GNU debuggin tools such as gdb and gprof
if [ -z "$1" ];
then
echo -e "Missing argument 1\nusage: $0 [ filename without .cpp ] [ OPTIONS ]
Type $0 --help for command line options"
exit
fi

# message of --help
helpMsg="usage: $0 [ filename without .cpp ] [ OPTIONS ]\n
The bash script accepts the following options :\n
\t -lFilename\n
\t\t include the library while linking.\n
\t\t This -l option is different from the -l in gcc compiler.\n
\t\t It does not search standard system directories but only\n
\t\t the full filename specified explicitly. For example,\n
\t\t cc.sh -lmy.o includes my.o while linking. -lmy does not\n
\t\t search the file libmy.a\n
\t -p\n
\t\t include the PLIB library, http://plib.sourceforge.net/\n
\n
\t --Mesa4Dir=DIR\n
\t\t change the default directory of Mesa 3D 4.0 from\n
\t\t /usr/local/Mesa-4.0 to DIR\n
\n
\t -m4\n
\t\t compile and link using the gcc options for Mesa 3D 4.0\n
\n
\t --Mesa35Dir=DIR\n
\t\t change the default directory of Mesa 3D 3.5 from\n
\t\t /usr/local/Mesa35 to DIR\n
\n
\t -m35\n
\t\t compile and link using the gcc options for Mesa 3D 3.5\n
\n
\t -glui\n
\t\t include the GLUI library, http://www.cs.unc.edu/~rademach/glui/\n
\n
\t -d\n
\t\t add debugging options for gcc compiler"
