[LWJGL GLU not found?]

OpenGL Development
#1

Hey JGO, I’m fairly new to LWJGL/OpenGL altogether so I don’t know what’s going on here o.O

Anything relating to ‘GLU’ in the LWJGL examples my IDE cannot locate, am I doing something wrong?

This is relating to:


String errorString = GLU.gluErrorString(errorValue);

Could somebody take some time and explain what GLU is?, and why It seems to hide from me.
Is out outdated / removed?

Thanks for any feedback guys.

Looks like I never bothered to load lwjgl_util.jar lolz.
I found it and added it to my project, loads fine.

Although every time the method’s called it automatically exits saying ‘Invalid Enum’ so I’ll just remove it. >:(

Most post’s are saying that it’s deprecated?

It will only work if “error” is the integer returned from glGetError() and it is not equal to GL_NO_ERROR.

Also, GLU is deprecated, but gluErrorString is fine.
