Not working on Windows 7

[peterigz]

Good to see you work on this again. Just tried your latest version on windows 7, the module compiles ok, but trying to run a simple program stops with the following error:

C:/BlitzMax137/mod/cower.mod/renderbuffer.mod/renderbuffer.debug.win32.x86.a(renderbuffer.cpp.debug.win32.x86.o):renderbuffer.cpp:(.text+0xe8a): undefined reference to `_imp____GLEW_EXT_compiled_vertex_array'

Thats just with the following prgram:

SuperStrict
Import cower.bufferedglmax2d

SetGraphicsDriver BufferedGLMax2DDriver()
Graphics 800, 600

Cls

While Not KeyDown(KEY_ESCAPE)
Wend

Can you try this with BlitzMax 1.38 and tell me if you get the same result?

[peterigz]

slightly different result iin the latest version I think:

C:/BlitzMax138/Mod/cower.Mod/renderbuffer.Mod/renderbuffer.Debug.Win32.x86.a(renderbuffer.cpp.Debug.Win32.x86.o):renderbuffer.cpp:(.text + 0xd38):undefined reference To `_imp____glewLockArraysEXT'

That is.. bizarre. I'm not entirely sure what to say to that, considering these probably build fine for every other system (and probably on most Windows 7 systems). I'm not getting any linker errors on my end (otherwise I wouldn't have pushed the commits), so I'm not entirely sure what to do about fixing it.

Maybe try running bmk makemods pub.glew and see if that changes anything.

[peterigz]

Tried making pub.glew like you said but same result. Very strange! Just made sure I'm on the latest nvidia drivers, just in case, but no joy.
