Found the cause, we still had a #pragma comment(lib, "flac.lib") in our code

It's a completely clean CMake build. Error still happens when I do a clean clone of the git repo.

Edit: And we didn't link it statically before

General / Linker misses flac.lib when linking SFML dynamically

Hi everyone,

we are using CMake to generate the build files for our project and make use of the findSFML module to use SFML.

Here's our CMakeLists file:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0)

# forbid in-source build configurations
if("${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}" STREQUAL "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}")
  message(FATAL_ERROR "Insource builds are forbidden, use another build directory")
endif()

project(Project-Onyx LANGUAGES CXX)
set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake)
set(ONYX_INSTALL_DIR "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/install/${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}")

include(${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH}/cotire.cmake)

set(SFML_ROOT "" CACHE PATH "SFML root directory")
set(BOOST_ROOT "" CACHE PATH "Boost root directory")

find_package(Boost 1.58.0 EXACT REQUIRED)
find_package(SFML 2.3 COMPONENTS system window graphics audio EXACT REQUIRED)

include_directories(${SFML_INCLUDE_DIR} ${BOOST_INCLUDE_DIR})

file(GLOB_RECURSE SIMULATION_SOURCE ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/src/Simulation/*)
file(GLOB_RECURSE VISUALISATION_SOURCE ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/src/Visualisation/*)

add_library(Simulation ${SIMULATION_SOURCE})
add_executable(Project-Onyx ${VISUALISATION_SOURCE})
target_link_libraries(Project-Onyx Simulation ${SFML_LIBRARIES})
set_property(TARGET Simulation Project-Onyx PROPERTY CXX_STANDARD 11)

install(TARGETS Project-Onyx DESTINATION "${ONYX_INSTALL_DIR}")

if(WIN32)
  # get the SFML-DLLs
  file(GLOB SFML_DEBUG_DLLS ${SFML_ROOT}/bin/*.dll)
  install(FILES ${SFML_DEBUG_DLLS} DESTINATION "${ONYX_INSTALL_DIR}")
endif()

file(GLOB TEXTURE_DIR ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/res/data)
install(DIRECTORY ${TEXTURE_DIR} DESTINATION "${ONYX_INSTALL_DIR}")

set_target_properties(Project-Onyx PROPERTIES COTIRE_CXX_PREFIX_HEADER_INIT ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/src/Visualisation/stdafx.h)
set_target_properties(Project-Onyx PROPERTIES COTIRE_ADD_UNITY_BUILD FALSE)
set_target_properties(Simulation PROPERTIES COTIRE_CXX_PREFIX_HEADER_INIT ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/src/Simulation/stdafx.h)
set_target_properties(Simulation PROPERTIES COTIRE_ADD_UNITY_BUILD FALSE)
cotire(Project-Onyx)
cotire(Simulation)

Generating the build files works fine. Building the project itself however (VS 2013) throws a Linker error:

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'flac.lib' [C:\ProgramData\Jenkins\jobs\Project Onyx - Win - CMake - Release\workspace\build\Project-Onyx.vcxproj]

As far as I know, you don't have to link the SFML dependencies when linking SFML dynamically. Why do we still get this error?
