General / Re: Making window causes crash (core dumped)

Good news:

I used NetBeans, and everything works fine. Also, I used the package from the repos, and added /usr/include and /usr/local/include for my include options, and the /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib for the libraries. Everything works.

However, I instead am now using the slightly outdated G++-4.9, which seems to, however, work fine.

Thanks for the suggestion of getting it from the repos instead.

I have tried, now, the repository variant as well to no avail. The "libsfml-dev" package available for my system.

Could it be that Ubuntu 17.04 isn't compatible? If this is the case, then it's too big of a jump to move back to 16.04, I might have to forget using SFML.

Apparently the "udev" package from the repos is perfectly up to date and present.

Edit: I tried both the package from GitHub and the one from the downloads page, the one labeled "source," and the exact same problem is occurring.

"CMake Error at cmake/Modules/FindUDev.cmake:49 (MESSAGE):
  Could not find UDev library
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  src/SFML/Window/CMakeLists.txt:242 (find_package)"

Configuration error. UDev is most certainly not missing. I'll try the one from GitHub.

I'll quickly try that and get back to the forums if something goes wrong. Thanks.

General / [SOLVED] Making window causes crash

« on: August 05, 2017, 12:26:49 am »

I've recently been trying to use the SFML libraries in order to go along with my learning of C++. Please understand that I've only started attempting this today, and my knowledge may be lacking.


This code:
------
#include <SFML/Window.hpp>
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::Window window(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "Hello World");
    return 0;
}
------

Causes a giant error, though the first few lines:
------
*** Error in `./wontwork': free(): invalid pointer: 0x00005644c95ccd68 ***

This is then followed by a backtrace, and a memory map.
------

Implies that some pointer to a variable/object is either invalid or the include/library is missing. I've been trying to start on SFML for quite a few hours now, and searching on Google didn't quite help. I have followed up to three tutorials on linking these libraries.

I have linked the following libraries:

sfml-graphics
sfml-window
sfml-audio
sfml-network
GL
sfml-system


I am using CodeLite on Ubuntu 17.04.
