msvc vs minGW
 

I have a mate who wants to share code that he compiled with msvc. I
want to add those files in a project in dev-c++ using the minGW
compiler. The project uses glui libs. I've set the project options
to point to the correct locations. Anyone with ideas on how to get
this to work, apart from downloading msvc?

Unfortunately, this is the wrong place to ask. Setting up your project
in an IDE is a question for a newsgroup pertaining to that IDE. I'd
look around for a place where people discuss minGW or dev-c++. This
group only discusses questions specific to the C++ language, not the
tools we use to play with the language.

Add:
OP, check that you have OpenGL and the GLUi libs installed.

[ check the OpenGL(Mesa) sites. ]
