General / SFML is really slow on computer 1 but not computer 2

« on: August 02, 2015, 04:22:07 am »

As the topic say I have some strange problems with SFML. This problem is persistent on computer 1 with SFML 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3.

Computer 1 have a
AMD Athlon II X2 250 (3.00 GHz) CPU
8GB RAM
Win7 64-bit
ATI Radeon HD 4600 card

When compiling even the basic example that show the green circle the program will stutter, every ~1 second the window will "freeze" for a half a second.

Computer 2 that is a laptop with
Intel Celeron CPU N2830 (2.16GHz)
4GB Ram
Win8 64-bit
Intel HD Graphics with ~1.7GB total memory (according to DXDiag).

When I try the exact same code and executable on computer 2 there is no problem what so ever. So it doesn't seem to be a problem with the code since even the "hello world" SFML example is stuttering, so do anyone have any suggestion on what I can try to fix this problem?

The image is updated, I rebuilt again when I noticed that, and got a new error.
This seem to be C::B related though.

No, I had forgot to update it on my second machine.
I updated to 13.12 and re-compiled SFML and the test project.

One problem I see now is that d:/program/codeblocks doesn't exist. I reinstalled C::B on C:\ but for some reason it is still looking on D:\ I cannot figure out what to try. I did reboot the computer after the installation just in case but the problem is persisting.

Yes, both are built in C::B 10.05.
And I use the source for SFML 2.2 to build all the SFML stuff.

This is the result from the debug with a breakpoint

I added output after each line in the code, and it crashed here:

Code: [Select]

sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(400,400),"01_Introduction");I have no clue how to build a debug version with the CMAKE, or is that done in the C::B project CMAKE creates for me? I have tried the dll-files in release, and debug. I have my graphics driver up to date.

*EDIT*
I guess I change "Release" in CMAKE to "Debug" so I'll try that.

*EDIT 2*
I guess I built the debug correctly, but I still have the same problem that it crashes on the same line as before.

Yes, if I didn't I would get another error that say x.dll is missing.

General / SFML Blueprint build problems in C::B

I bought the book "SFML Blueprint" today and in the book the reader was tasked with compiling SFML 2.2 with CMAKE and to compile the basic "make a circle appear" test program. The code compiles but when the application starts it dies with a "X.exe has stopped working. Windows is looking for a solution" dialog popping up.

CMAKE window

and the files it gave me


I followed the steps and compiled SFML and opened C::B, and followed the steps the book said me to follow.




The code example used is from the book and looks like this:

#include <SFML/Window.hpp>
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main(int argc,char* argv[])
{
    //the window use for the display
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(400,400),"01_Introduction");
    //set the maximum frame per second
    window.setFramerateLimit(60);

    //construct a circle
    sf::CircleShape circle(150);
    //set his color
    circle.setFillColor(sf::Color::Blue);
    //set his position
    circle.setPosition(10, 20);

    //main loop
    while (window.isOpen())
    {
        //to store the events
        sf::Event event;
        //process events
        while(window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            //Close window
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();
            //keyboard input : Escape is press
            else if (event.type == sf::Event::KeyPressed and event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::Escape)
                window.close();
        }

        //Clear screen
        window.clear();

        //draw the cirle
        window.draw(circle);

        //Update the window
        window.display();

    }

    return 0;
}
 

Anyone has any clue what I might have done wrong? My guess is that I made some error during the CMAKE process, but I have never used CMAKE before so I have no clue what I can try.
