I have a program that worked on my computer before I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled the operating system. I reinstalled all the necessary compilers and DLLs but im getting linker errors for glut. below is a snippet of the code I am trying to run and what my compile command is.
Here is the main I am trying to run:
/*
* GL01Hello.cpp: Test OpenGL C/C++ Setup
*/
#include <windows.h> // For MS Windows
#include <GL/freeglut.h> // GLUT, includes glu.h and gl.h
/* Handler for window-repaint event. Call back when the window first appears and
whenever the window needs to be re-painted. */
void display() {
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f); // Set background color to black and opaque
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT); // Clear the color buffer
// Draw a Red 1x1 Square centered at origin
glBegin(GL_QUADS); // Each set of 4 vertices form a quad
glColor3f(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f); // Red
glVertex2f(-0.5f, -0.5f); // x, y
glVertex2f( 0.5f, -0.5f);
glVertex2f( 0.5f, 0.5f);
glVertex2f(-0.5f, 0.5f);
glEnd();
glFlush(); // Render now
}
/* Main function: GLUT runs as a console application starting at main() */
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
glutInit(&argc, argv); // Initialize GLUT
glutCreateWindow("OpenGL Setup Test"); // Create a window with the given title
glutInitWindowSize(320, 320); // Set the window's initial width & height
glutInitWindowPosition(50, 50); // Position the window's initial top-left corner
glutDisplayFunc(display); // Register display callback handler for window re-paint
glutMainLoop(); // Enter the infinitely event-processing loop
return 0;
}
And here is the command that is being run:
g++ GL01Hello.cpp -o GL01Hello.exe -lglu32 -lopengl32 -lfreeglut
and the errors I am getting are all below:
g++ GL01Hello.cpp -o GL01Hello.exe -lglu32 -lopengl32 -lfreeglut

Any help in resolving these linker errors would be extremely helpful.
Edit: I edited all the code above to be a very simple example, and I am still getting a very similar linker error. Someone reported this as a similar problem to the generic "what causes linker errors" Post and I have already tried many of those and none of them have helped. Thank you fo the attempt though
