Concerning GL tutorial

SDL Development
1

I’m trying to make lesson 10, and it’s complaining that the gl header
files can’t be found. I hardcoded one and it found the file, but the
headers within the one .h file couldn’t find the others. Is there an
entry to /etc/profile that I should make? I’ve never had this problem
before with Mesa - this particular version is the Mesa3Dfx - perhaps a
bug in the env configuration settings?

Thanks,
Mike

Are you having trouble with the other tutorials as well?

add -I/usr/X11R6/include to your Makefile, or symlink GL in
/usr/include, because that’s where it belongs, according to

Or of course there are environment variables that can be set.

CPP_INCLUDE_PATH is the one for C++. I forget what the correct spelling
is for the c include path. C_INCLUDE_PATH perhaps?

It is in the same format as any bash PATH variable. This should keep you
from having to type -I each time until you get it ready.
