Glut32.dll is missing

[Gazatteer]

Hello

When I try to run AppBox2dDemo I get the following error:
The program can't start because glut32.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

The Box2dDemo directory within BulletBuild contains GLUT32.DLL.

I have used CMake to build the Bullet as http://bulletphysics.org/mediawiki-1.5. ... om_scratch

I have build all projects within Bullet_Physics using Visual Studio 2010.

Please note bullet-2.77-win32_executables work without any problem.

Please help.

Hello

Have you tried copying glut32.dll from other Demo folder to Box2dDemo or Debug folder?

thanks for the reply, I will try your suggestion tonight.

I still need to after building the all how come I get this error? Is it something to do with Visual Studio 2010?

I have Windows 7 x64 bit operating system but Visual Studio is 32 bit. Is this the problem?

Well.... I dont think so... I'm using Visual Express 2008 in Windows 7 64-bit and the Box2dDemo works fine. You can also take a look in the "CMakeLists.txt" file, to see what's going on when Visual build the app.

Greetings!

The demo works when the glut32.dll file is placed in the Debug folder but this does not solve my problem.

On another computer running Visual Studio 2008 and Windows XP I don't get this problem. Also, the file glut32.dll does not exist in any demo's Debug library but the demo still works.

I have located the problem. The problem is that Glut is not preinstalled on Windows 7 and it does not come with Visual Studio 2010.

Does anyone know how I can setup Glut for Windows 7 and Visual Studio 2010?
