Hi Doug
you should try
make messages=yes
to view the compiler and linker command lines and check how they
change when you add/remove these GNUmakefile options. ;-)
Since you specify -lopengl32 twice (as Gears_TOOL_LIBS and LDFLAGS)
I'd expect it to appear twice on the linker command line;
maybe one of the two is redundant ? (eg, try removing the LDFLAGS line
and see if it still works) ;-)
As a general background of what the two options do, setting LDFLAGS
will generally force the -lopengl32 to appear on the linker command
line,
in a certain position, for everything that gets compiled (in your
case, only the Gears application, but could be more if you had more).
Gears_TOOL_LIBS will do the same, but IIRC in a different position on
the linker command line, and only for the 'Gears' instance - in your
case
the Gears application.
Thanks

Okay, I found a working solution -- I thought I'd searched this to

right after you post! Now the sample links correctly and runs...
nice.
Anyways, here is what I added to and changed in the gnustep-gears
makefile:
Gears_TOOL_LIBS += -lopengl32
LDFLAGS=-lopengl32
I understand the LDFLAGS option, but could someone explain the first
change? My background is in C (PalmOS), VC++, and C# (not gcc) and
the construction of that line isn't clear to me.
Again, thanks in advance,
Doug.
