Get Access violation reading location 0x000000b0 with glutMouseFunc

I'm using glutMouseFunc(mouseFunction); as a callback however I keep getting the Access violation reading location 0x000000b0 at this line glutMouseFunc(mouseFunction);

I'm not using any of the glutInit functions because they interfere with the program and they are not essential anyways.

Does anyone know why I'm getting this error when at this callback?

Here is my initialize function:

   int Initialize()
   {
      /* Bunch of code here that is irrelevant to the problem.......*/
      glutMouseFunc(mouseFunction); // Error occurs here.
   }

And here is my mouseFunction:

    void mouseFunction(int button, int state, int x, int y){
      if(button==GLUT_MIDDLE_BUTTON && state==GLUT_DOWN) 
          {
               printf("Pressed middle mouse button!");
          }
      }

I've noticed one thing though, there error does not occur when I call the mouseFunction() as a normal function call in my Initialize method however once I try to use the mouseFunction with glutMouseFunc(mouseFunction), than the error happens so I believe this is more of an error with glutMouseFunc.

This is your problem. If you're going to use GLUT, use it correctly.

The glutInit() function is essential - part of what it does is initializing internal state within GLUT. As you've discovered, with this state not properly initialized, other parts of GLUT (such as mouse event handling!) may not work properly.
