Can you please refer me a free compiler with opengl support?

I am looking for a compiler of C genre, i.e. C/C++/C# compiler, thats free and has built in opengl support. Please tell me one.

Can you please refer me a free compiler with opengl support?
As the other answerer has said, you need to get a compiler, then get the opengl library to fit it.





As you seem to be a beginner, you get the OpenGL Utility Toolkit (GLUT). It is available here:

Other resources can be found here:

Info about it can be found here:

Glut for win32 can be found here:

For a compiler, I can provide 3 choices.





Borland Free 5.5 C++ Command Line Compiler (GLUT works with this)

Reply:No compiler has built in OpenGL support, but nearly every compiler has a library written that uses OpenGL (C, C++, C#, VB.net....). All you have to is pick a language, get its compiler, and then get the library to interface with OpenGL.
