I am trying to link SFML 1.6 to my project in Code::Blocks 10.05 with MingW 4.4.1
I followed this (http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/1.6/start-cb.php) tutorial and used the same source code used as an example.
I am getting the following errors:
||=== SFML_test, Debug ===|

I know this question has probably been asked a dozen times or more but before posting I: Reread the tutorial, searched the internet and double-checked the settings/options in Code::Blocks.
Additionally, I added the SFML_DYNAMIC define and "-lsfml-system-s-d" and copied "libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll" and "sfml-system-d.dll" to my project executable's directory and got it to work (in Debug configuration). I should also mention that "libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll" was to located in the MingW version I have (found "libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll" instead). I got this .dll from the download suggested in the beginning of the tutorial. I still want to make it work with the static libraries though :)

Which is for dynamic link, not static ;)

So it means that your MinGW is not compatible with the one that was used to compile SFML. You can recompile SFML with yours, or download the version I used (the link is provided in the Code::Blocks tutorial).

It may not have been clear what I was trying to say but I only used the define when I compiled dynamically :)
Switching the path under Settings -> Compiler and debugger... -> Global compiler settings -> Toolchain executables -> Compiler's installation directory to the path of the MingW version you suggest in the tutorial makes it work flawlessly for static linking :D I also managed to circumvent the fps issues (very low delta-times) I experienced on my laptop a while back. Maybe I need to update my drivers or OpenGL version?
Anyway, thank you for your help :)
