[Mingw-users] gl.h header

[Tobias S. <sch...@kl...>]

Hello,


We're working on a cross platform library which can be built with ming32 =
on windows platforms.=20
Unfortunately the gl.h header included in the current MinGW32 release =
lacks certain definitions which are part of the MS and SGI versions.

The SGI- gl.h is free (so it can be copied in whole or just part of it =
without explicit permission of SGI).
Is it safe to use it to and link with libopengl32.a from the mingw32 =
package (I'm thinking about including it in our build tree) ?

Or is there anyone of the mingw maintainers around who would like to =
replace the header in your distribution (if it is safe to use it) with =
something more compatible (there are similar problems building the fltk =
library for example) ?
