how to upgrade openGL in visual studio?

Question

I tried to set up glew and then devIL/openIL in visual studio but still have runtime and link error . I want to know it can be from openGL version of my visual studio or what? what should i do for upgrading my openGL?

Thanks.

Answer 1

OpenGL library can't be upgraded. GLew should do the work to dynamically retrieve new functions pointers. Are you sure you are linking against opengl32.lib ?

Answer 2

error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__ilInit@0 referenced in function _main

You're calling but not defining ilInit(). Try linking against DeviL.lib.
