What's the exact message and what did you do? The
opengl32.lib I have on my github is for dmd 32 bit, ldc uses
the Microsoft one I think so you shouldn't need anything else.
It just says the format is invalid. I used the one you
supplied in the package and never worried about it. I'll try
some other libs when I get a chance.
OpenGL32.lib and glu32.lib are part of the Windows SDK.
Assuming you've got VS 2015 installed, they should be part of
the installation and should be available out of the box. Adam's
lib is solely for use with OPTLINK when compiling with DMD
using the default -m32 on Windows, since DMD does not ship with
the opengl lib. When compiling with -m32mscoff or -m64, it will
use Visual Studios libraries.
That's not true unless I'm not suppose to import them directly.
When I switch to 64-bit build I get same errors. Basically only
dmd x86 works.
It could be my setup.
This is EXACTLY what anyone who is doing this sort of stuff needs
to know:
1. How to tell the difference between different libs and what
kind of libs are required for what kind of compiler and build.
x86 x64
DMD . .
LDC . .
GDC . .
Please fill in the table for windows, linux, etc.
If I know this information then it is at least easy to make sure
I have matching socks. Else it's kinda pointless to put on shoes?
2. How does the D build system fetch the libs? It uses the
sci.ini path? What about Visual D?
Just because I have the correct stuff from 1 doesn't mean it is
in the "correct" place.
Where does D look for these? I assume in the "libs" directory?
pragma(lib, "opengl32");
pragma(lib, "glu32");
3. How to get different compilers and versions to play along? I
would eventually like to build for win/lin/osx for both x64 and
x86.
Without these 3 ingredients, everything is futile!
I am using Visual D, BTW. It seems to have a lot of stuff setup
by default but I haven't went in and messed with the settings
much.
