OpenGL With DirectX

I know this is gonna sound stupid, but is it possible to use OpenGL Functions, using OpenGL Headers and Libraries, on a DirectX game? Not calling me an "idiot", or "stupid noob, go learn dx somewhere else" would be highly appreciated. Thanks

I would post this in the programming section.
People in General don't have the first idea on how to hack except a select few. :/

To put it simple. Don't do it, especially not for calculations since they have different methods for mapping polys, even at the essential basics these two things are different.

One is most certainly not like the other.

But is it possible? Like to put chams, with OpenGL, in SF, would it be possible?

99% sure you can't.

Ty I didn't feel like repeating myself.

Nothing explicitly saying you can't, just don't because OpenGL and D3D are different is the bottom line. Comparing two different graphic bases like this is like comparing two different languages. It would be complex, tedious, and processor intensive transferring OpenGL and D3D objects, like converting VB into Java back and forth for lack of a better example. The bottom line is, it's not like the two are made to support eachother in anyway shape or form so it's only natural that they don't, so in order to get them to do so you'd have to jump through hoops and loops at a low level since they handle things differently at a low level.

It's possible. A royal PITA, but possible. It would be quite similar to puttin the glove in ur right hand to catch a ball... may sound like a good idea at first, but it quickly gets really fkin stupid really quick.

thats like running android on an iphone dude….
oh wait?
