Title: SFML 2.2 Visual Studio 2013 / 2015 Binaries + Template
Post by: kinglime on February 07, 2015, 06:03:52 am

SFML 2.2 Visual Studio 2013 / 2015 Binaries + Template

After the success of my last post (http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=13549), I thought I would share again. It was time to rebuild after upgrading to Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2015, plus I needed to upgrade to SFML 2.2.

Links
VS 2013 (http://www.mediafire.com/download/223qwm6xst2a248/SFML-2.2-vs2013.zip)
VS 2015 (http://www.mediafire.com/download/ttbwretbyyz9z22/SFML-2.2-vs2015.zip)

I had to rebuild both jpeg and freetype before I could build SFML for VS 2015. Everything is working fine on my end but please let me know if something goes awry. I compiled using cmake-gui and nmake.

Instructions

• Download the zip archive and extract it. Inside the folder there will be a folder named SFML, a batch file named install_template.bat and another archive named SFML-TEMPLATE.zip.
• Copy the folder SFML to C:\SFML. If you want to use a different directory the template will not work.
• If you would like to use the Visual Studio template you can run install_template.bat. If you do not trust or simply do not want to use the batch file you can manually copy SFML-TEMPLATE.zip to "%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Visual Studio (2013 / 2015)\Templates\ProjectTemplates\Visual C++ Project".

I hope I was able to help!  ;D

P.S. Special thanks to LanceJZ (http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=13349) for showing me how to automatically include the dll files.

I probably would have waited until VS2015 was out of preview. Microsoft themselves have a disclaimer on it saying that it should NOT be used for production code. Regardles, good work. I'm sure it will help some people.

That is true and thank you. I personally like to always be on the bleeding edge of technology. If people wanted I could build binaries for VS 2013.

Edit: I decided to add VS 2013! Cheers everyone  ;D

Hello, have you any interest in making a Visual Studio 2015 build for SFML 2.3 ?

VS2015 is not final yet.
I guess 2015 builds will show up once it is final.

Hello and thanks for providing the template for visual studio 2015. I tried your project template with the version of vs2015 downloaded from their website today, and it seems that it is not working any more. The project compiles successfully, but can not run (APPCRT140D.dll is missing). Do you know what could be wrong? Can it be that visual studio 2015 rc is different now than the version you used to compile the sfml?

Actually after find this llink (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2015/03/03/introducing-the-universal-crt.aspx), it seems the the dll APPCRT140.dll (and APPCRT140D.dll for debug version) do not exist any more in Visual Studio 2015 RC (=Release Candidate).

It seems you used some Visual Studio 2015 CTP version (Community Technology Preview) to build the SFML, which was still installing this DLL. Do you remember which CTP version you used?

.............or why don't you build SFML yourself using the compiler you got if you insist on using beta software... much easier than hunting down different compiler versions from beta releases.

Hi

It cant find the libs and I don't know why. I copied the SFML file into the Project but it wont find the libs.

Do you know why?

I have compiled SFML 2.3.1 for Visual Studio 2015 Community.

It gives me these errors:

Code: [Select]

1>flac.lib(stream_decoder.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ___iob_func referenced in function _FLAC__stream_decoder_reset
1>flac.lib(stream_encoder.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___iob_func
1>flac.lib(win_utf8_io.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___iob_func
1>flac.lib(bitreader.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _fprintf referenced in function _FLAC__bitreader_dump
1>flac.lib(bitwriter.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _fprintf
1>flac.lib(win_utf8_io.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _vsnprintf_s referenced in function _local_vsnprintf
1>msvcrtd.lib(vsnprintf_s.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _vsnprintf_s
1>msvcrtd.lib(vsnprintf_s.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __vsnprintf_s
Has anyone successfully compiled SFML 2.3.1 for Visual Studio 2015?

Though, the errors do relate to flac.lib and msvcrtd.lib, which aren't part of SFML.

Anyone have a solution for my problem?

Update...

Compiling libFLAC from http://sourceforge.net/projects/libzplay/ (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libzplay/) gives me these errors instead:

Code: [Select]

1>msvcrtd.lib(initializers.obj) : warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'libcmt.lib' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library
1>flac.lib(stream_decoder.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _fseeko referenced in function _file_seek_callback_
1>flac.lib(stream_encoder.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _fseeko
1>flac.lib(stream_decoder.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _ftello referenced in function _file_tell_callback_
1>flac.lib(stream_encoder.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _ftello
Update 2...

The _fseeko and _ftello stuff was defined for older versions of Visual Studio (in FLAC source code), but not for 2015. So I moved them around to make them defined.

Not sure if this is progress or not. Now I'm getting this:

I should mention sfml-audio is the only part of SFML that I am currently using.

You could use the nighty builds (http://www.nightlybuilds.ch/project/show/1/SFML/) instead. They work well.
