Dear Cygwin/X team,
I've just installed Cygwin & Cygwin/X for the first time. The installation worked smoothly and I can run remote X applications (including OpenGL applications successfully. Your X server makes me wonder why we have paid thousands for an incomplete product: Hummingbird's X server. Thanks a lot for such a wonderful product. I'll try and work on the powers that be to make a contribution to the Cygwin team.
I have a small question relating to developing OpenGL applications *locally*: I have installed the gcc/++ compiler suite, freeglut library files and the "OpenGL-related files" via the setup program. However, compiling OpenGL programs fails as the linker cannot find the GL libraries. Nor can I when I try looking for libgl.* and libglu.* in the usual locations. (libglut files are there).
My questions: - have these files changed names / locations in the Cygwin heirarchy? - or does "OpenGL-related" files refer to other supplementary files but not to the main GL library files - if so - where can I find the GL lib files?
Many thanks for any help on this. All the best, Suresh Keswani -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
