Building bullet in windows with MinGW

Post by ahmadiakbari »

Hi!
I'm new here.
I want to use bullet in my project and I want to compile it with MinGW.
But when i use cmake, it shows an error that it can't find GLUT.
how can i fix it?
I want to use demos to learn bullet, I think Glut is needed for compiling demos.
Thank you.

I have moved to linux for sometime. In my memory, Windows currently doesn't include GLUT in its library. What I did before is to download the GLUT library and add it by myself. (I also found those files from previous VC6 library, but currently it might be difficult for you to find PC with VC6 on it).

Hope it helps. Anyone who is using windows should provide more detailed information than me.
