Re: [win32] opengl - not NSWindow

[Julien Isorce]

Hi,

Yep you right, I could see that I forgot to create a NSWindow and then call "NSWindow ::setContentView". 
Now it's ok about this.
I have now an other question but I will open a new discussion.

Thx

Looks like you are creating an OpenGL context and a view without a
corresponding window. This wont work in GNUstep (it might on MacOSX, I
don't know) and it would be useless anyway, as you wont be able to see
anything in that view.

You better start off by copying one of the OpenGL example applications
and add your changes there.
