General discussions / Re: SFML Game Development -- A book on SFML

This is by far one of the more impressive books I have read on programming so congrats on that  . I honestly did not manage to understand the uses of some of C++11's new features until reading this.I really like how the chapters flow together so you can develop one project throughout the lessons.

Code::Blocks actually ships with SJLJ version of GCC/MinGW so you will want to download the GCC 4.7 TDM (SJLJ) package instead of the MinGW (DW2). This is documented in the tutorial in the first red box though the downloads page doesn't really help in making it less confusing. People make this mistake a lot.

Could you post screen shots of your settings in Code::Blocks. It may just be something simple you are missing.

Linking libraries to the wrong build target is the only thing I know of that can cause crashes from that tutorial. Make sure that you are only linking sfml-xxxx under release and sfml-xxxx-d under debug. Also make sure they are in the correct order (sfml-graphics, sfml-window, sfml-system from top to bottom).

Be sure to read all of the text on the tutorial pages because they often mention problems you may have and how to fix them.

General / Re: libsfml-system has undefined references to libjpeg linking "Hello SFML" in Linux

I had this same issue but compiling SFML from source resolved it so I doubt it is an issue with libjpeg. I will also test this on Fedora later today though to make sure. (I know this is late but since I came across this post I though I might as well give some updated information).
