Metrowerks Codewarrior and GLUT

I am having using glut with codewarrior, maybe because its an old version maybe not. Anyway, glut gl programs never feel like compiling because of one error i get everytime…and thats the missing winmain16 function, anywyay to fix this somehow?

Make sure you’ve linked the glut32.lib in with your project.

/ec

It’s there

Try creating a console-based project, not a win32 project.

Win32 apps require WinMain, but console projects just require main().

/ec

under your linker settings set the subSystem to Windows CUI not the GUI.

If that doesn’t take care of it send me mail and I can give further assistance…I know sometimes it can be a pain but I have several projects that do just what you’re after so it can be done

Later, Guy

ugh… I’ve had to do that before… try asking mWron@metrowerks.com(think thats the right mail address, he works for them and contributes to their help boards very often)… also, there are a few sites that say how to do it(I’ve forgotten how)…

Pretty much, just search around/ask this guy, and once you do it make an application stationary so you never have to do it again(its a pain)…

Edit: ahh, here is a site that says how(except I didn’t have the luxury of a pre-made project)… http://www.mathcs.richmond.edu/~svogel/cmsc335.html
