I need to apply a texture in a polygon. So I searched and I found many sources but i’m most of them I had problems in include and loading BMP picture. (developing in visual cpp 10). So can anyone tell-me the easy way to load a BMP file and how to apply the texture?

An easy way is to use GDI+ class

You create an object with a constructor which takes a filename and then get a pointer to the buffer which contains the pixels using
LockBits()method. That method gives you a pointer to a buffer which you can send to OpenGL texture functions.
