Hi,

MSVC natively comes with OGL and when I try to include glut.h and use a GL funciton in my code, VC++ gives me a compiler error as a typedef in gl.h collides with the c4d api "pi" definition.

typedef void (APIENTRY * PFNGLARRAYELEMENTARRAYEXTPROC)(GLenum mode, GLsizei count, const GLvoid* pi);

Any idea how to solve this problem?

Ok, it doesn´t work. It works for compiling but not for the final built. I still get the same error. :( Any other idea?

I guess you could disable the C4D pi definition, unless you use it yourself.

That would be safe? Cool. I´ll give that a try. I can define it differently in my namespace. Thanks
