I did do a search of the Forums before I posted this, I guess I missed it. I'll check again!

[Edit]: Found the workarounds, can't believe I missed them the first time I searched! Thanks for the quick reply, sorry to re-post about a well known bug

Graphics / Unhandled exception with sf::String

« on: September 09, 2009, 09:01:47 pm »

I've recently started using SFML and I encountered an error whilst trying to use sf::String.

When I declare an sf::String and run the program it exits with an unhandled exception:

Unhandled exception at 0x6973c200 in Test.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00ed0654.

I have tracked this bug down the declaration of an sf::String, a minimal example that produces the same error is below.

Code: [Select]

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
sf::String MyString;

return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Linker input:

Code: [Select]

sfml-graphics-d.lib
sfml-main-d.lib
sfml-system-d.lib
sfml-window-d.lib

SFML_DYNAMIC in the Preprocessor Definitions.

sfml-graphics-d.dll, sfml-system-d.dll and sfml-window-d.dll in the executable folder.

I'm using SFML 1.5. I can provide any more information if necessary. Any ideas, anyone?

[Edit]: I'm using Visual Studio 2008, running on Windows XP SP3.
