Reading a infile into opengl

Im reading the file fine, but I cant get a picture using opengl.
thank you
code
#include <iostream.h>
#include <fstream.h>

#include <GL/glut.h>

GLuint Picture;

static void init (void){

glClearColor (1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0);
glMatrixMode (GL_PROJECTION);
gluOrtho2D (0.0, 200.0, 0.0, 150.0);

Picture = glGenLists (1);
glNewList (Picture, GL_COMPILE);

int x, y;

ifstream infile ("picture.dat");
ofstream outfile ("chris.txt");
glBegin (GL_LINES);
while (!infile.eof()){
	infile >> x >> y;
	
	glVertex2i(x,y);
	
	glEnd();
	glEndList ();

outfile <<x<<""<<y<<" ";
cout<<endl;
}

infile.close();
outfile.close();

}
void lineSegment (void){
glClear (GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
glCallList (Picture);
glFlush ();
}

void main (int argc, char** argv)
{
glutInit (&argc, argv);
glutInitDisplayMode (GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);
glutInitWindowPosition (50,100);
glutInitWindowSize (400,300);
glutCreateWindow (“Hello”);

init ();
glutDisplayFunc (lineSegment);
glutMainLoop ();

}

I think a little more information would help, there could be a thousand diffrent reasons for no image.

How about post the code!

Here is the whole thing with proper indenting.

As you can see glEnd() and glEndList() is called within the loop so GL_LINES only gets the inital set of x/y coordinates and then glEnd and glEndList() is called and that will cause the following calls in that loop to fail.

#include <iostream.h>
#include <fstream.h>
#include <GL/glut.h>

GLuint Picture;

static void init (void)
{
glClearColor (1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0);
glMatrixMode (GL_PROJECTION);
gluOrtho2D (0.0, 200.0, 0.0, 150.0);

Picture = glGenLists (1);
glNewList (Picture, GL_COMPILE);

int x, y;

ifstream infile (“picture.dat”);
ofstream outfile (“chris.txt”);
lBegin (GL_LINES);
while (!infile.eof())
{
infile >> x >> y;
glVertex2i(x,y);
glEnd();
glEndList();
outfile <<x<<“”<<y<<" ";
cout<<endl;
}
infile.close();
outfile.close();
}

void lineSegment (void)
{
glClear (GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
glCallList (Picture);
glFlush ();
}

void main (int argc, char** argv)
{
glutInit (&argc, argv);
glutInitDisplayMode (GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);
glutInitWindowPosition (50,100);
glutInitWindowSize (400,300);
glutCreateWindow (“Hello”);
init();
glutDisplayFunc(lineSegment);
glutMainLoop();
}

With the ortho projection, is your object draw between -1 and 1 on the Z axis.

You may need to translate it to the correct location on the screen to be seen.
