MinGW installation
- Download and install all packages [1]
- MinGW-x.y.z.exe will automate the download and installation process for you
- Add the full "MinGW\bin" path to the Windows PATH environment variable
- For XP: ControlPanel -> System -> Advanced -> EnvironmentVariables
- For Vista: ControlPanel -> SystemAndMaintenance -> System -> AdvancedSystemSettings -> EnvironmentVariables
- The PATH variable should look something like this:
%SystemRoot%\system32;...<other paths>...;C:\MinGW\bin
GLUT installation
- Download the Win32 header and binaries [2]
- Add glut.h (glee.h, glew.h, etc.) to the MinGW include folder (e.g., C:\MinGW\Include\GL)
- Add glut32.dll to C:\Windows\System32 (or your executable's folder)
- Add glut32.lib (glee.lib, glew.lib, etc.) to your project's source folder
- See the Getting Started section for a kick start on the configuration and use of GLee [3] and GLEW [4]
Example GCC usage with GLUT and GLee
From a system console, enter the following from within the source [5] folder:
gcc -o hello.exe -Wall hello.c glee.lib glut32.lib -lopengl32 -lglu32
