OpenGL: Drawing a Circle in C

C program to draw a circle using OpenGL on Windows in Code::Blocks

// C program to demonstrate
// drawing a circle using
// OpenGL
#include<stdio.h>
#include<GL/glut.h>
#include<math.h>
#define pi 3.142857
// function to initialize
void myInit (void)
{
 // making background color black as first
 // 3 arguments all are 0.0
 glClearColor(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
 // making picture color green (in RGB mode), as middle argument is 1.0
 glColor3f(0.0, 1.0, 0.0);
 // breadth of picture boundary is 1 pixel
 glPointSize(1.0);
 glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
 glLoadIdentity();
 // setting window dimension in X- and Y- direction
 gluOrtho2D(-780, 780, -420, 420);
}
void display (void)
{
 glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
 glBegin(GL_POINTS);
 float x, y, i;
 // iterate y up to 2*pi, i.e., 360 degree
 // with small increment in angle as
 // glVertex2i just draws a point on specified co-ordinate
 for ( i = 0; i < (2 * pi); i += 0.001)
 {
  // let 200 is radius of circle and as,
  // circle is defined as x=r*cos(i) and y=r*sin(i)
  x = 200 * cos(i);
  y = 200 * sin(i);
  glVertex2i(x, y);
 }
 glEnd();
 glFlush();
}
int main (int argc, char** argv)
{
 glutInit(&argc, argv);
 glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);
 // giving window size in X- and Y- direction

 glutInitWindowPosition(0, 0);
 // Giving name to window

source : Detail on how to install OpenGL in codeblocks for windows

Install OpenGL on windows in Code::Blocks

  1. Download code block and install it
  2. Go to the link and download zip file from the download link that appears after freeglut MinGW package with having link name as Download freeglut 3.0.0 for MinGW and extract it.
  3. Open notepad with run as administrator and open file from
    1. This PC > C:(C-drive) > Program Files(x86) > CodeBlocks > share > CodeBlocks > templates, (then click to show All Files)
    2. Next, open glut.cbp and and search all glut32 and replace with freeglut.
    3. Then, open from This PC > C:(C-drive) > Program Files(x86) > CodeBlocks > share > CodeBlocks > templates > wizard > glut (then click to show All Files)
    4. Open wizard.script and here, also replace all glut32 with freeglut 
  4. Then go to freeglut folder (where it was downloaded) and
    1. Include > GL and copy all four file from there
    2. Go to This PC > C:(C-drive) > Program Files(x86) > CodeBlocks > MinGW > include > GL and paste it.
    3. Then, from download folder freeglut > lib, copy two files and go to This PC > C:(C-drive) > Program Files(x86) > CodeBlocks > MinGW > lib and paste it.
    4. Again go to downloaded folder freeglut > bin and copy one file (freeglut.dll) from here and go to This PC > C:(C-drive) > Windows > SysWOW64 and paste this file.
  5. Now open Code::Blocks.
    1. Select File > New > Project > GLUT project > Next.
    2. Give project title anything and then choose Next.
    3. For selecting GLUT’s location : This PC > C:(C-drive) > Program Files(x86) > CodeBlocks > MinGW.
    4. Press OK > Next > Finish.

Now, Code::Blocks is ready to test for OpenGL File
NOTE: Once you save your file in the GLUT project in codeblocks, comment the main() method of the 'main.cpp' file, because there can be only one main() method i.e. the one in your C file.

How to remove the 'Unable to load authentication plugin 'caching_sha2_password' issue in Netbeans while connecting to MySQL 8.0.19


The newer versions of MySQL default to caching_sha2_password. If you want to disable it then follow below steps

  1. Login into your MYSQL console as root user like below.

eg mysql -uYOUR_ROOT_USER_NAME -pYOUR_ROOT_USER_PASSWORD

  1. Then execute the command by replacing YOUR_ROOT_USER_NAME and YOUR_ROOT_USER_PASSWORD

ALTER USER 'YOUR_ROOT_USER_NAME'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'YOUR_ROOT_USER_PASSWORD';

You will no longer get any 'caching_sha2_password' exception while connecting for any client after this.
