Qt - Glut32 Lib

I'm trying to create an Glut window with Qt creator. All my code has been done on another computer. Now, I want to compile it on my own.

I've added the Glut32 library files in the following folders:

In my pro files, I've added the following lines:

LIBS += -L$$PWD/lib/glut32.lib
LIBS += Opengl32.lib

And in my code, I've the following includes:

#include <gl/GL.h>
#include "GL/glut.h"

Qt does not report any error with the last include!

So, when I try to compile my code, I've many errors which say:

error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol

All those errors belongs to glut functions which cannot be found. So, did I do something wrong when I included the glut32 library?

Thanks.

Maybe it helps you to know, that you can output messages in your pro file, eg: message("Location of glut32.lib" + $$PWD/lib/glut32.lib). So you could check, whether your path is ok. Also note, that you add libraries with -l<LibName> and library paths with -L<LibPath>, so you should try to replace -L$$PWD/lib/glut32.lib by -l$$PWD/lib/glut32.lib

For further options refer to the qmake variable reference
