GNAT and OPENGL in windows NT

GNAT and OPENGL in windows NT

[Redmond Urbino]

Does anybody know of a way to get opengl working with gnat in windows
NT?

Yes, the SGI version of gnat did have support for opengl, but it's 
not there in the NT version.  

I do have visual C++, and opengl there works fine.

Is there a way to get gnat working with the microsoft .libs and 
.dlls ?

Please reply by email.

Thanks in advance.

Please help.  I am trying to get a simple openg gl program to run using
gnat on windows nt.
I'm using gnat 3.10, the latest win32ada, vc++ 5.0, and  nt 4.0

I tried adding the option to gnatmake
   -largs \vc\include\opengl32.lib \vc\include\glu32.lib
\vc\lib\glaux.lib
I get lots of linker warnings like:
  ld: r:\vc\lib\opengl32.lib(OPENGL32.dll): warning: ignoring duplicate
section `.text'
  ld: r:\vc\lib\opengl32.lib(OPENGL32.dll): warning: ignoring duplicate
section `.idata$5'
  ld: r:\vc\lib\opengl32.lib(OPENGL32.dll): warning: ignoring duplicate
section `.text'
  ld: r:\vc\lib\opengl32.lib(OPENGL32.dll): warning: ignoring duplicate
section `.idata$5'
I get an executable, but it wont run and I get an error that it has not
been initialized properly


If I don't include those libraries, I get linker errors like:
  ./cube.o(.text+0xfb):cube.adb: undefined reference to `glFlush@0'
  ./cube.o(.text+0x196):cube.adb: undefined reference to
`auxInitDisplayMode@4'

Thanks in advance.
