include path?

include path?

GOPATH is where your "src" folder resides not where your include files are. Please refer to Go website for how to properly setup Go tools.

Also typically, you should install GLFW under your C/C++ compiler's directory (C:\MingW?), to the proper "lib" and "include" folders.

CMake: Where to build the binaries:
Change it to C:\MinGW ?

then under CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX it automatically specifies C:\Program Files (x86)/GLFW

should this be C:\MinGW also?

• Build GLFW with cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=on
• Copy "include/GLFW" folder to "mingw/include"
• Rename glfw3dll.a to libglfw3dll.a and copy it to "mingw/lib"
• Setup your GOPATH correctly (see Go website for how)
• Now you can run go get github.com/go-gl/glfw3

Using the CMake GUI I set a folder to build to, clicked configure, checked the BUILD_SHARED_LIBS, clicked generate.

Copied glfw3.dll to C:\MinGW\bin
Copied glfw3dll.a to C:\MinGW\lib as libglfw3dll.a
Copied original source folder contents of include/GLFW to C:\MinGW\include\GLFW

C:\Go\gocode>go get github.com/go-gl/glfw3

# github.com/go-gl/glfw3 src\github.com\go-gl\glfw3\clipboard.go:4:24: fatal error: GLFW/glfw3.h: No such file or directory //#include <GLFW/glfw3.h> ^ compilation terminated.

Originally the ^ was under the G in GLFW/glfw3.h now it is under the h.

GOPATH is simply set to C:\Go\gocode now.

@versa and for anyone else who looks at this...

I had this exact same problem and found a solution.

No idea if this is a bug in the mingw distribution, or how its supposed to be but the include folder doesn't appear to be the obvious one!

I was dropping my include files in here:
C:\Program Files\mingw-w64\x86_64-4.8.1-posix-seh-rt_v3-rev2\mingw64\include\GLFW

Turns out the correct location seems to be here:
C:\Program Files\mingw-w64\x86_64-4.8.1-posix-seh-rt_v3-rev2\mingw64\lib\gcc\x86_64-w64-mingw32\4.8.1\include\GLFW

Weird eh? Works for me though. Hopefully it will for you too.

@phase5 , thanks. I wound up using Azul3D which includes this. It works now.
