OpenGL Drivers and Headers

If you would like to see this site updated, please help out and

Drivers needed to use OpenGL

Back to OpenGL Tutorial Index

Here I have gathered the OpenGL drivers, the OpenGL library files along with the OpenGL header and include files for compilers. The include files (.h) go into the include folder, and the library files (.lib) go into the library folder. Also the drivers (.dll) will go into your system folder (windows prior to 2000) or in your system32 folder (windows 2000 and greater).

Note: If you are not using Windows Visual C++ 6 then you may have to link the opengl library files to your project manually.

*Keep in mind, not all files here may be up to date, look for more recent version of glut, glew, glext and vbogl.*

Hey Dan,

Look in your install directory. Mine looks like:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC

Inside their, you should have a lib folder and an include folder.

Cheers,
Donald

Yes Donal is right if you want to program with c++ you have to copy .h files in mentioned directory\include
.dll files in system32
.lib in lib folder

Great library here :)

Can you please tell me what version of OpenGL (glut) you've included?
Or how can I figure out from the files?

Thx,
Ruxandra

Hi Ruxandra,

I am not sure of the glut version I have put up. You should be able to get it from inside the glut.h file.

If you can't find it out, I'll take a look myself.

Thanks,
Donald Urquhart

Good job putting together a simple, helpful page! It's so strange how hard people can make things like downloading the right libs and incs. Praise to you!
