CUBE Sample: Demonstrates an OpenGL Application
The CUBE sample is a simple OpenGL application. It demonstrates how to integrate OpenGL with the MFC single document interface (SDI), and how OpenGL's resource contexts are used in conjunction with device contexts.
For a more detailed explanation of OpenGL, refer to the Windows SDK.

This sample code is intended to illustrate a concept, and it shows only the code that is relevant to that concept. It may not meet the security requirements for a specific environment, and it should not be used exactly as shown. We recommend that you add security and error-handling code to make your projects more secure and robust. Microsoft provides this sample code "AS IS" with no warranties. |
