Can't include

Question

I\'m using Visual Studio 2010. I\'m trying to write simple Camera class in OpenGL. I need to include gl/gl.h in Camera.h
gl/gl.h is already included in main.cpp and Camera.h

Answer 1

Just do an include of windows.h first.

#include 

As it's said in the OpenGL FAQ :

Also, note that you'll need to put an #include statement before the #include. Microsoft requires system DLLs to use a specific calling convention that isn't the default calling convention for most Win32 C compilers, so they've annotated the OpenGL calls in gl.h with some macros that expand to nonstandard C syntax. This causes Microsoft's C compilers to use the system calling convention. One of the include files included by windows.h defines the macros.
