title: I cannot compile an OpenGL application due to library issues
body: <p>I am having alot of trouble compiling any simple OpenGL application in c++. I have been looking around and have mostly seen that the problem is linking, but i haven't been able to find a solution that works for me. I have added MinGW to the Path and also moved the freeglut and glut libraries and headers over. I have used a simple openGL tutorial example and its supposed to draw a white line in a black box. Here is my code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#include &lt;gl/freeglut.h&gt;
  
  using namespace std;
  
  void Draw(){
      glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
      glColor3f(1.0,1.0,1.0);
      glBegin(GL_LINES);
          glVertex3f(.25, .25, 0.0);
          glVertex3f(.75, .75, 0.0);
      glEnd();
      glFlush();
      }
  void Initialize(){
      glClearColor(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
      glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
      glLoadIdentity();
      glOrtho(0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0, -1.0, 1.0);
  }
  int main(int iArgc, char** cppArgv){
      glutInit(&amp;iArgc, cppArgv);
      glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);
      glutInitWindowSize(250, 250);
      glutInitWindowPosition(200, 200);
      glutCreateWindow("XoaX.net");
      Initialize();
      glutDisplayFunc(Draw);
      glutMainLoop();
      return 0;
  }
