SDL Development
#1

Where can i find information on how to program openGL with SDL. I looked
on the SDL web page but all it had was a copy of NeHe’s tutorials for
windows.

The source code for the tutorials use SDL.

I don’t know if i am look in the right place then. I looked in the
OpenGL intro and it looked like windows code to me. This is an example
from lesson 7 (http://nehe.gamedev.net/tutorials/lesson7.htm).

#include <windows.h> // Header File For Windows
#include <stdio.h> // Header File For Standard Input/Output
( ADD )
#include <gl\gl.h> // Header File For The OpenGL32 Library
#include <gl\glu.h> // Header File For The GLu32 Library
#include <gl\glaux.h> // Header File For The GLaux Library

HDC hDC=NULL; // Private GDI Device Context
HGLRC hRC=NULL; // Permanent Rendering Context
HWND hWnd=NULL; // Holds Our Window Handle

bool keys[256]; // Array Used For The Keyboard Routine
bool active=TRUE; // Window Active Flag
bool fullscreen=TRUE; // Fullscreen Flag

All that the OpenGL intro page seems to do is link to the lessons on
gamedev.com. Is this something that needs to be fixed? If i am looking
in the wrong place, please direct me to the correct one.

They’ve been ported over to SDL on that page (I did number 19, I don’t know
if it’s up yet, though), so that’s a good bet. You might also want to try
out my wonderful OpenGL documentation, which is included in the SDL docs, or
take a look at the testgl source. :wink:

Damn! I still need to do that thing! Bugger.

The pictures link elsewhere, to NeHe’s real site… try the big tarball at
the top of the page.
