This is a pretty fresh install of Windows (8.1 btw, not sure if that matters), so I'm certain this is the only version of Code::Blocks/TDM that I've downloaded.

Also, I just set it up to link dynamically instead, and it does the same thing (builds with no errors, same crash when I run it).

Edit: well, I got it to work on Ubuntu.  Not exactly a solution but I suppose it'll do for now

Ok, now I'm even more confused.  So MinGW is a gcc port; TDM-GCC is a different port that uses the same runtime APIs?

I guess what I need now is for someone to tell me where to get a compiler that works with one of the available SFML binaries.

Damn, now I feel like an idiot.  Well, thanks for the help everyone.  I appreciate your patience.

Compiler is the default one that came with Code::Blocks, codeblocks-13.12mingw-setup.exe from this link: http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/26#windows

SFML is the "GCC 4.7.1 TDM (SJLJ) - 32-bit" option from here: http://www.sfml-dev.org/download/sfml/2.2/

I'm using mingw 4.7.1.  I'm not the OP (who was using 4.9.2), I just posted in this thread because it seemed related.

Here's the output from gcc -v:

That didn't seem to fix it, I get the same results.  I tried copying the .dll's into the same folder as the executable, that didn't help either.  Though I noticed I don't have a libgcc.dll, instead there's a libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll and a libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll.  Not sure if that matters.

Here is the new build log:

Ok that explains it, I was trying to build SFML from source.  Now I've decided that's over my head so I'm using the pre-compiled binaries.  I can build the test project with no errors, but it crashes when I try to run it.  Return value: -1073741510 (0xC0000005). 

I found this SO thread which seems to have a similar problem: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22368784/sfml-wont-run-in-codeblocks-13-12, but I checked and my compiler (mingw 4.7.1) matches the version of the libraries I downloaded.  Not sure what to do from here.

Edit: here is my build log if that helps.

mingw32-g++.exe -Wall -g -DSFML_STATIC -I..\..\libraries\SFML-2.2-windows-gcc-4.7.1-tdm-32-bit\SFML-2.2\include -c C:\Users\jason\programming\projects\ArtilleryGame\main2.cpp -o obj\Debug\main2.o

What I meant was, do I need to tell Code::Blocks where the headers for those libraries are since SFML uses them?

In other words, following this guide: http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/2.2/start-cb.php

When I want to use the SFML libraries, I add SFML\include to the compiler search directories.  Do I need to do something similar for the dependencies?

You aren't linking all the dependencies.  See http://www.sfml-dev.org/faq.php#build-link-static

I had some questions about how to do this.  I grabbed the libXXX.a files, some of them came with the SFML binaries I downloaded, others I found in my mingw/lib folder.  I added them to the "Link libraries" list under "Linker Settings".  This is my link order:

sfml-graphics
freetype
glew32
jpeg
sfml-window
opengl32
gdi32
sfml-system
winmm

If I haven't done anything wrong up to this point, my question is this: are there headers for these libraries?  If so, where do I find them?

Note: I'm using mingw 4.7.1.
