Installing OpenGL 2.0 for development on XP using VC++ .NET

Asked by Brent-Campbell in OpenGL Graphics & Game Programming

Tags: opengl, xp, installing

Hi,

I've done a lot of research using the web but still can't find the right answer.

I need to install OpenGL 1.5 at least but 2.0 would be useful.

Basically I'm using an N6200 video card and therefore I have installed the latest Nvidia drivers which I understand have 2.0 built in.
I've then installed Nvidia's SDK (9.5) which has the latest gl.h etc and have copied those files to VC++ .NET gl directory etc.

I'm assuming that when gl.h is included during compilation, 2.0 will automatically be used? Do I need to specify anything in order to use 1.5/2.0?

My main problem now though is where do I get the latest OpenGL32.lib and dll which include 1.5/2.0 support?

Many thanks in advance.Start Free Trial
