Title: Problem with getting started with SFML - static linking (solved)
Post by: Dancer on May 19, 2016, 03:13:24 pm

Hi everyone,

I'm a total beginner, trying to get started with C++ and SFML. I followed the tutorial, got 46 errors, followed it again and got the same effect.

Windows 10 64-bit
Intel HD graphics card
Visual Studio 14 (2015), using Win32 platform.
SFML for VS 14 32-bit

Started with empty C++ project.

Additional Include Directories:

C:\Users\kubal\Documents\SFML-2.3.2\include;%(AdditionalIncludeDirectories)

Additional Library Directories:

(click to show/hide)

C:\Users\kubal\Documents\SFML-2.3.2\lib;%(AdditionalLibraryDirectories)

I have not copied SFML dlls (or anything else) to my project directory. As far as I understand, that is only necessary for dynamic linking.

Additional Dependiencies (release):

main.cpp:

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
   sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(200, 200), "SFML works!");
   sf::CircleShape shape(100.f);
   shape.setFillColor(sf::Color::Green);

   while (window.isOpen())
   {
      sf::Event event;
      while (window.pollEvent(event))
      {
         if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
            window.close();
      }

      window.clear();
      window.draw(shape);
      window.display();
   }

   return 0;
}

========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

It seems as if sfml-window-s-d.lib is missing some dependiencies, but I have no idea why.

The list of linked libraries contains by default some libraries (e.g. user32.lib, etc). You seem to have removed them by accident.

Cleanest solution would be to start a new project and set things up again.
Alternatively you can google the function name and figure out what additional libraries need to be linked.

Thanks :D The libs were there. I just had to check the option to inherit from parent or project defaults, basically adding ";%(AdditionalDependencies)" at the end. It works now.
