I'm trying to create an opengl context (ogl 4.5 at least) and render to it; it works fine with SDL2 but I can't figure out why it doesn't with Win32: I'm trying the screen color to RGBA(1, 0, 0, 1) with glClearColor()/glClear, but nothing seems to happen. Here is my code: --EDIT I updated the code as you suggested but still, nothing seems rendered; also the problem is not because of gl 3.x/4.x features because I initialized GLEW after having created a wiggle context
LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc(HWND hWnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);
HGLRC ourOpenGLRenderingContext;
bool running = true;
int WinMain(__in HINSTANCE hInstance, __in_opt HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, __in_opt LPSTR lpCmdLine, __in int nShowCmd)
{
MSG msg = { 0 };
WNDCLASS wc = { 0 };
wc.lpfnWndProc = WndProc;
wc.hInstance = hInstance;
wc.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)(COLOR_BACKGROUND);
wc.lpszClassName = L"oglversionchecksample";
wc.style = CS_OWNDC;
if (!RegisterClass(&wc))
return 1;
CreateWindowW(wc.lpszClassName, L"openglversioncheck",
WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW | WS_VISIBLE, 0, 0, 640, 480, 0, 0, hInstance, 0);
while (GetMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0) > 0)
DispatchMessage(&msg);
return 0;
}
LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc(HWND hWnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
switch (message)
{
case WM_PAINT:
glViewport(0, 0, 100, 100); //render to a viewport of width (100; 100)
glClearColor(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
break;
case WM_CREATE:
{
PIXELFORMATDESCRIPTOR pfd =
{
sizeof(PIXELFORMATDESCRIPTOR),
1,
PFD_DRAW_TO_WINDOW | PFD_SUPPORT_OPENGL | PFD_DOUBLEBUFFER, //Flags
PFD_TYPE_RGBA, //The kind of framebuffer. RGBA or palette.
32, //Colordepth of the framebuffer.
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0,
0,
0,
0, 0, 0, 0,
24, //Number of bits for the depthbuffer
8, //Number of bits for the stencilbuffer
0, //Number of Aux buffers in the framebuffer.
PFD_MAIN_PLANE,
0,
0, 0, 0
};
HDC ourWindowHandleToDeviceContext = GetDC(hWnd);
int letWindowsChooseThisPixelFormat;
letWindowsChooseThisPixelFormat = ChoosePixelFormat(ourWindowHandleToDeviceContext, &pfd);
SetPixelFormat(ourWindowHandleToDeviceContext, letWindowsChooseThisPixelFormat, &pfd);
ourOpenGLRenderingContext = wglCreateContext(ourWindowHandleToDeviceContext);
wglMakeCurrent(ourWindowHandleToDeviceContext, ourOpenGLRenderingContext);
MessageBoxA(0, (char*)glGetString(GL_VERSION), "OPENGL VERSION", 0);
if(glewInit() != GLEW_OK) {
MessageBoxA(0, (char*)glGetString(GL_VERSION), "Error: Could not init OGL API (GLEW)", 0);
}
}
break;
case WM_CLOSE:
//quit code
wglDeleteContext(ourOpenGLRenderingContext);
PostQuitMessage(0);
break;
default:
return DefWindowProc(hWnd, message, wParam, lParam);
}
return 0;
}

Creating a modern OpenGL rendering context in Windows takes a bit more effort. Essentially you first have to create a proxy context to load the necessary extensions, then you create the proper context using those. I wrote a small library that does the internal proxy context housekeeping behind the curtains and lets you get right to the core business without further ado: http://github.com/datenwolf/wglarb
For the sake of StackOverflow best practice of include code in answeres instead of linking here's the main implementation file (it's a mere 238 lines):

Look at the code for SDL to see what it does - I think there's some faffing about to get a context with modern (>=3 or >=4) OpenGL.
