General / Code Blocks won't static link SFML
« on: February 13, 2011, 09:24:27 am »
Hello,
I have an ATI card and since I've updated my drivers everything's been messed up. I'm aware that the common workaround is static linking, but I cannot manage to get it right.
I've changed the linker options to include the '-s' suffix and I've declared SFML_STATIC in the #defines for my compiler. I've downloaded Laurent's prepackaged MinGW with gcc4.4 and configured Code Blocks to use it. I've also run the batch file the in the windows SDK in order to build SFML statically. And yet I still get the dreaded console window which can only be terminated abnormally.
I feel that some how I'm still not telling Code Blocks to link SFML statically. I've combed the forums forever on this and I hate making new threads, and I've even considered going back to SDL, but I love the clean and lean SFML too much to let go.
Please help!
