System / Passing variables to ThreadFunction()

« on: December 17, 2011, 05:21:48 pm »

What if I need to pass a variable into the thread function? How can I do that? It's not explained in the tutorial on the SFML website. Two Sprite variables need to be passed into my thread function, so how do I declare that function?
WIll it be void ThreadFunction(sf::Sprite Sprite, sf::Sprite Sprite2);
I keep getting an error, and what is the void *UserData for?
And how do I later create the thread?
In the tutorial it just says:
sf::Thread Thread(&ThreadFunction)
?

General / SFML 1.6 in visual C++ 2010

« on: November 28, 2011, 06:20:45 pm »

Hi. I'm new to sfml. I followed a few tutorials that I did in code::blocks. But here's the thing. I just can't work in code::blocks , I'm so used to VC++.
Now I need someone to tell me how to install SFML 1.6 in visual C++ 2010.
I tried it a few times and I keep getting linker errors. Now could any of you explain to me how I can do this or at least direct me to a good tutorial on this topic.
