Title: You must select a host application to "run" a commands-only target
Post by: lorence30 on May 01, 2015, 05:04:36 pm

Im done building the SFML with cmake and I am compiling it right now with Code::Blocks 13.12
Im compiling it with Build target "all".
But a window that says "You must select a host application to "run" a commands-only target" keeps popping up.

Did you select "empty project" when creating your project?

You do realize... actually you don't, but there is a difference between building a program and executing it... you aren't supposed to execute the built SFML project directly (well as this thread shows, you can't).

Oh sorry, I misread the post. I thought it was a sfml based program that wasn't compiling rather than sfml itself.
