Cannot find -luser32

[biterman]

Hi,

I uninstalled Dev-Cpp 4.9.8.10, which was working dandy except for the debugger, and installed the full package of Dev-Cpp 4.9.9.0. I did both things following the instructions in Aditsu's FAQ.

But now I can't compile anything. I get a "Cannot find -luser32" error message. I'm certain there's no hidden gcc or whatnot in my HDD messing things up because I went thru something similar last time I updated, the thread on that experience must be lying around here somewhere. Nevertheless, I've searched the HDD and the registry for anything suspicious, haven't found anything. So, basically I'm stumped.

Thanks for all your help,
biterman.

do you have libuser32.a in C:\Dev-Cpp\lib ?

I'm having the exact same problem. I'm also using 4.9.9.0.

[biterman]

Curious,

I repeated the process, clean uninstall-reinstall, and now things are working again...

Maybe I changed something without noticing... oh well...

Thanks for your help,

luser32 is easy to find:
Search for kip on ICQ, that's his nickname there...

You are a coward.

> I'm having the exact same problem. I'm also using 4.9.9.0.

then did you try the exact same solution?

> luser32 is easy to find

although Kip may or may not be a loser, the only person that your message insults is yourself
seriously, grow up

I did the solution, but to no avail. I uninstalled and re-installed fresh. I installed the libraries I needed (GLUT), but this occurs even if I use GL libraries already there. I have included the appropriate switches to my linker command line. No matter what, I get linker errrors.

I'm using WinXp and version 4.9.9.0.

Here's my compile log:

well, that's a TOTALLY DIFFERENT problem!
did you check the forum FAQ? it has a section dedicated to opengl and glut

Of course I did! ;-)
