Basic4GL for Java

For the past few months a member of the Basic4GL forum has been developing a version which runs on Java. There is a thread on the forum here which contains more information however the Basic4GL Facebook page here has the most up-to-date developments on the project. If you'd like to download the newest version it can be found here on the developers site.

Building FreeGlut 3.0.0

I noticed that FreeGlut 3.0.0 had been released and decided to build it using MinGW. I've created a step-by-step guide here that should show you what to do. I still haven't got around to installing a 64-bit compiler yet but compilation would be near-identical if you have such a set-up. If you aren't that interested in building it yourself you can download both 64-bit and 32-bit shared/static libraries for MSVC and MinGW compilers from this site.

New FLTK Tutorial

I recently decided to build FLTK v1.3.3 and wanted to create a tutorial as a reminder to myself and a guide for anyone else to follow. Sadly I still haven't got around to renewing my subscription at Wikispaces so I can't update my Wiki. :-(

But I did some research and discovered that Altervista offered free webspace so I created my tutorial there. Building FLTK is really simple (and it builds much quicker than wxWidgets) so you shouldn't encounter any difficulty.
