Phil, A quick dig through my archives (all 5,571 e-mails on "freeglut" alone) reveals three e-mails from you on the subject of "build on mingw". They are dated July 13 and 14, 2004. The first one says ... <begin quote> Hi, I've been trying to build freeglut 2.2.0 using mingw (both from within cygwin and from MSYS). It dies while trying to compile freeglut_ext.c with lots of messages about initializers not being constant. What's going on? Thanks, Phil <end quote> Your other two e-mails indicate progress and possibly even a solution, but you don't give a patch <alas!>. In the ensuing discussion, Yuri D'Elia says ... <begin quote> I've built 2.2.0 with mingw recently without problems. <end quote> Yuri, do you have any words of wisdom? John F.

With the right combination of switches I have been able to build FreeGLUT under cygwin using native Win32 OpenGL calls. However, as far as I can remember, I could only get one type of library to build, static or dynamic. Unfortunately, I do not recall which. There should be some posts from me somewhere back in the mailing archives about building with Cygwin. Phil Yahoo! Mail Stay connected, organized, and protected.
