Programming Opengl ES in Ubuntu

rated 0 times [ 3] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 8059 / 2 Years ago, sat, july 16, 2022, 8:24:16

I want to program somthing using opengl es , i search software center for anything related

and i found libgles1-mesa-dev , then i wrote a simple main program and included :

#include <GLES/gl.h>  

#include <GLES/glext.h>

and it compiles , but if i try to use an opengl es function it says undefined reference .
(meaning the include without using functions compiles , but after writing a function it gives that error)

i compiled using simple

gcc ./*.c -o xxx

how can i use this library to program opengl es 1.x ?

or opengl es in general ?

i did this and it worked :

 1) sudo apt-get install libgles1-mesa libgles1-mesa-dev

 2) sudo apt-get install freeglut3 freeglut3-dev

 3) gcc ./*.c -o "XXX" -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ -lGLESv1_CM -lglut

those steps on ubuntu 13.04 64bit , because the "-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/"

changes depending on your distro.
