Whenever I am trying to create a new glut project it gives me a popup as "cant find compiler executable in your configured search path's for GNU GCC Compiler" i.e. a Environtment Error. And on the screen I am unable to see the source code as well, whole screen is blank. Please help me with this.

If you are getting "glut32.dll is missing" error, Try Instead of copying glut32.dll to "C:\Windows\System32" copy it to "C:\Windows\SysWOW64"

[@virtualclassesoncomputerpr5433]

yes, codeblocks installed and configured successfully, i could get the last 3 graphical images

[@anchallama8121]

Thank you sir ,for your effort to help easily. In my case i had to attach one more file in codeblock/Mingw/lib : libbgi.a and gult32.dll files paste in SysWOW64

[@mahimakulkarni]

Project/Target: "sample - Debug": The compiler's setup (GNU GCC Compiler) is invalid, so Code::Blocks cannot find/run the compiler. Probably the toolchain path within the compiler options is not setup correctly?! Do you have a compiler installed? Goto "Settings->Compiler...->Global compiler settings->GNU GCC Compiler->Toolchain executables" and fix the compiler's setup. Tried to run compiler executable 'C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\MinGW/bin/mingw32-gcc.exe', but failed! Skipping Got this error after compiling the sample program, please help .

[@LearningBits1024]

Try-1 : Copy & Paste "glut32.dll" in Windows32 Try-2 : Copy & Paste "glut32.dll" to "C:\Windows\SysWOW64" Still if the issues stays.... let me know...

[@tejashreekkothapalli3621]

Hlo!!! Have a same issue done copying dll file to syswow32 but didn’t get the solution

[@goodluckklauson8740]

when i download package link the drive doesnt allow me to access the glut and readme files

[@sandeshr2885]

For example program it was working but for my project program it not working it's fatal error glut.h there is no dir or file

[@LearningBits1024]

Under Project Type Category make sure you choose glut Project...

[@dimension-ji7xk]

1) Paste libglut32.a. in Codeblocks MinGW : lib folder 2) paste GLUT folder (has all the glut header files) In include folder: GL folder 3) go to Project: click Build options tab Debug: click Linker settings tab Click add Add libglut32.a Use browse button to create a path to the lib folder where libglut32.a. is. The path would look something like this CodeBlocks\MinGW\lib\libglut32.a 4) move over and click the Search directories tab Click add Add the GLUT folder Use the browse button to create a path to where the GLUT folder is. The path would look something like this CodeBlocks\MinGW\include\GL\GLUT

[@sumanthachark]

Hello, in my MinGW folder not a single file is in .exe format. Should I manually make it .exe or is there any fix?

[@LearningBits1024]

No you need not create any such files.... it will be automatically installed... if everything would have went fine.. while installing...

[@dimension-ji7xk]

.exe files aren't in the minGW folder. .exe ( executable application ) files are automatically created in your Project's bin: debug : folder 📂 if the program was successfully compiled with no errors.

[@HelloHello-yf8dz]

@@LearningBits1024 I'm not saying there are any problem. I'm saying GLUT is deprecated, according to that book.

[@LearningBits1024]

Ok... I got your point. GLUT is deprecated because no further enhancement has been made for it, in place of it FreeGLUT has been replaced with very few changes. As it is backward compatible all the features of GLUT is handled by FreeGLUT too.
