[Mingw-users] problems linking the GLUT lib

[Dragoon <dr...@ic...>]

Hi to all on the list,

i'm a semi-new C coder, trying to test out the Mingw32 compiler with a few
opengl sources i have, it works fine with the opengl32 lib (-lopengl32) etc.
even the win32 lib works, i can get a window working, great. but when i try
to link the GLUT lib, it fails every time, giving me some crap about
undefined references to '__glutInitDisplayMode' and a few others. what am i
doing wrong? i'm using the gcc-2.95.2-msvcrt version of mingw32, gcc date
7/11/99.
also, from compiling some old app, i got 'undefined ref to WinMain@16", WTF?
finally this is probably obvious, but i can't find the answer so i'll ask
you guys. how do i direct the compiler output to a file (i'm using win95)
any advice apperciated, thanks
