Hi fellow-newbs
I’ve setup code::blocks and picked the opengl-project. It compiled and ran successfully at second attempt. Great!
The main.c does not use the code suggested in SuperBible_5. I managed to get
const char *verString = glGetString(GL_VERSION) ;
and
printf("verString: %s
", verString ) ;
working.
const char is a substitute for ubyte which the setup (MinGW, win7) did not recognize. But
GL_MAJOR_VERSION and GL_MINOR_VERSION is not recognized either.
As an aside: the version is 3.3 which I was going for.
int MajorVer, MinorVer;
glGetIntegerv(GL_MAJOR_VERSION, &MajorVer) ;
glGetIntegerv(GL_MINOR_VERSION, &MinorVer) ;
and the problem continues if I try (to ensure that I’ll get the core-profile)
GLint attribs[] = {WGL_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION_ARB, 3,
WGL_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION_ARB, 3,
WGL_CONTEXT_POFILE_MASK_ARB, WGL_CONTEXT_CORE_POFILE_BIT_ARB,
WGL_CONTEXT_FLAGS_ARB, WGL_CONTEXT_DEBUG_BIT,
0};
hRC = wglCreateContextAttribsARB(*hDC, 0, attribs);
First: Should I set wglCreateContextAttribsARB() atop my code as (a prototype) like:
void EnableOpenGL(HWND hwnd, HDC*, HGLRC*);
Second: Error-code from the compiler->

I would appreciate a comment
I added
#include <stdlib.h>
and it stopped whining about printf(). [or did something else do the trick?]
