How to make to work openAl in visual studio 2010


I have installed openAl in C:/ and followed a lots of tutorials how to make it work. It doesn't recognize al.h, alu.h, alut.h and others components from openAl. I don't know what to do. Can somebody help me?

Thank you, Alex


Solution

  • Under your project properties, choose C++ | General. If your include statements look like:

    #include "al.h"
    

    then be sure to include "C:\openal-soft-1.13\include\AL" in the Additional Include Directories section. If your include statements look like:

    #include "AL/al.h"
    

    then be sure to include "C:\openal-soft-1.13\include" in the Additional Include Directories’ section.

    I'm assuming that your openAL code resides in "C:\openal-soft-1.13". If not, replace that with where it actually resides.
