Title: Problem with static linking SFML 2.5.0
Post by: Thorus331 on July 18, 2018, 07:31:48 am

So I have problem with static linking SFML 2.5.0...

I'm using Visual Studio 2017, Windows 8.1

Yes, I have SFML_STATIC in Preprocessor Definitions:

Yes, I'm linking Additional Library Directories to \lib:

Yes, I've downloaded 64x bit SFML and building my program on 64x bit configuration.

My Additional Dependencies for debug configuration:
(I tried like 20 other combinations, still same error)

And for release same as for debug but wihout -d prefix...

The error I get:

(click to show/hide)

sfml-graphics-s-d.lib(Image.cpp.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __std_swap_ranges_trivially_swappable_noalias referenced in function "unsigned char * __cdecl std::_Swap_ranges_unchecked<unsigned char,0>(unsigned char * const,unsigned char * const,unsigned char * const)" (??$_Swap_ranges_unchecked@E$0A@@std@@YAPEAEQEAE00@Z)

fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

Code I'm testing (this one from tutorial):

(click to show/hide)

#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;
}

Help :(

If I remember correctly this is due to a mismatch in visual studio versions. Most likely the binaries on the sfml site were built with a slightly different version to what you have installed (ie 17.4 vs 17.5). Make sure your version is fully up to date and if all else fails build sfml from source using your own copy of visual studio
