For anyone else who finds this and has trouble, I got it working - you need to create an OpenGL context too. After creating the window + renderer, call SDL_GL_CreateContext() passing the window as a parameter. Then, once you've drawn what you want with OpenGL commands, you need to use SDL_GL_SwapWindow().

Yea...I pushed the renderer and window variables into the global mem, and used a function by NEHE to replace the perspective function: http://nehe.gamedev.net/article/replacement_for_gluperspective/21002/

for osx 10.9/xcode 5....

sdl2 framework, gl framework, glut framework

line 9: #include OpenGL/glu.h

replace line 63 w/void Display_Render(SDL_Renderer* displayRenderer)

line 114: Display_Render(displayRenderer);

You don't really need a renderer in SDL2.

line 90: SDL_GL_SwapWindow(displayWindow);

line 101: displayWindow = SDL_CreateWindow("", 0, 0, width, height, SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL);

Delete everywhere else the renderer appears.

Here is a working example for MacOSX and Ubuntu:

... and for Win :)
