[Freeglut-developer] Re: Using Freeglut with MinGW

[<lut...@gm...>]

Now I've tried to compile freeglut version 2.2.0 and 2.3.9 but the 
./configure script in both versions don't work correctly with MSYS. 
After configuring the package mingw32-make.exe ends up with an error:

freeglut_callbacks.c:293: warning: 'glutWindowStatusFunc' defined 
locally after being referenced with dllimport linkage
make[2]: *** [libglut_la-freeglut_callbacks.lo] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/c/Dokumente und 
Einstellungen/e1sbaer/Desktop/freeglut-2.3.9/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/Dokumente und 
Einstellungen/e1sbaer/Desktop/freeglut-2.3.9'
make: *** [all] Error 2

What can I do?
