Title: SFML 2.0 and Codeblocks
Post by: Mars_999 on December 30, 2011, 09:22:08 pm

I am just checking out Codeblocks vs. MSVC++ 2010 and have no experience using GCC but I can't get SFML to work with it so far...

I am guessing that since Codeblocks uses GCC by default, that when it comes to libs I can't use sfml*.lib and I will need to use Codeblocks to compile a new set of libs that end with sfml*.a?

So if that is correct I am guessing the .lib files are tied to MSVC++ platform only?

Thanks!

You can specify whether you use Code::Blocks or MSVC++ when you build SFML with CMake. Everything is set up so that you only need to compile the projects using your IDE. Take a look at the installation tutorial.
