I am currently taking a college course in Computer Graphics and we are using Visual Studio 2012.
I am trying to get it set up to use freeGLUT and GLEW, but am currently not having any progress.
I have searched everywhere, but have not had any luck finding anything on using a Surface Pro to do this. My professor managed to get it to work on a desktop with Windows 8, but has not tried with a Surface Pro.
I currently do not have any other system to do this on or else I would use one, nor do I have the funds to purchase something else. The Surface Pro has been great for everything else so far, just not this.
UPDATE I have had some better luck so far using GLEE and freeGLUT. I am now getting this error.
1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Include\um\GL/gl.h(1157): error C2054: expected '(' to follow 'WINGDIAPI'
I included windows.h and now it is saying there are syntax errors in my gl.h
UPDATE 2 Program works now. the dll files are with the project files. I also had to reinstall Visual Studio 2012. Good news is IT WORKS! Thanks for those who showed interest and tried to help.
