Hi
I am trying to compile a simple code but I seem to need to link the glut libs (glut32.lib) in to my program first .
How do I do that?
Thanx
Tom

I’m not sure you can do that. I believe .lib files are windows specific. You would need to find an implementation fo glut for Mac OS. Take a look at mesa It’s used for Linux but since Mac OS X is essentially BSD maybe you can somehow compile it. Good luck!
Apples OpenGL Libraries are part of the OpenGL Framework for MacOSX. It should be in either /System/Frameworks or /Library/Frameworks. Also note that the headers for MacOSX are <OpenGL/gl.h> <OpenGL/glu.h> and <OpenGL/glut.h>. There is some switch for specifing frameworks to apple’s version of gcc or you could use Xcode.
<edit>
Here is a better answer from another thread.
