General discussions / Visual Studio 10

I had the same problem, it seems you can't link against the static library in VS2010.

So I switched to dynamic SFML (with DLL) but run into another problem when running the project ("Cannot execute program") like most people had when switching from VS2005 to VS2005 SP1 (don't know if the same problem occured with VS2008/VS2008 SP1). I suppose it's related to the CRT shipped with VS 2010.

It's one way to think, but as SFML intend to be an abstraction for the windowing system, I think it should be natural that it support custom events, like most others windowing libraries (Win32, Qt, wxWidgets...). And as I said, it would be more elegant to handle events in one unique way, rather than wrapping SFML events into a custom made events system just for adding trivial custom events.

Hi!
Is this something that could be added in a future release ? Or is it something you want to avoid ?
Because I (and a lot of other people I think) am porting a lot of code from old SDL apps, and since some of them use the custom events system of SDL, it would be much simpler if it was possible to have something similar in SFML.
And since all of my apps use the main events loop of SFML, it would be much more elegant too (I REALLY want to get rid of SDL in my apps :p) !
