I want to create a simple Minesweeper game with SFML. The main problem is I can't decide how to make mine grid.
I have a few ideas how to make a grid, but none of them seem efficient to me. Can somebody tell me how should I deal with this problem the right way?

the grid? just draw some lines across the screen :o

Due to the vagueness of the question I can only give a very vague answer: Use basic OOP design and make each square an instance of a class. Have another class represent the grid which contains some number of those squares.

Well you could for instance use a class, which derives from sf::Drawable and a has a sprite as a member. Then you get a std::vector of your class and fill it with instance of your class, which get initialized to a certain position. Now you add a function to your class that will change the cell's state (covered, empty, number, mine) which moves the texture rect to the correct position. Tada you got a nice grid which you can easily change the state. You now only have to determine where the user clicks and react to it accordingly. :)
