How are you compiling?

I have mingw installed on my macintosh and I do cross-compiles from there, as I remember the default distribution of mingw came with opengl and glu.

I recommend going the mingw route whether you compile on windows or mac, it is very close to the development environment you have on the mac and even some POSIX functions will become available.

The GL headers should be included with VS, under a folder named something like PlatformSDK/Include/gl. (At least, this is how it was for 2003 and 2005 Pro. I don't have 2008 Exp installed.)

I think then you need to include extension headers like the ones provided here. I forget, it's been a really long time since I've used GL.
