General / "gdb.exe has stopped responding" codeblocks

nope never got it solved. I use the static libraries for debugging now. They work fine.

Yup, im using -lsfml-system-d and have put the dll inside the project directory.

Ive tried it on another machine (windows xp) and have the same problem. I'm sure something is wrong with the dll.... The static works fine.

To reproduce:
1) Download and install the most latest code::blocks (10.05) without the MinGW bundle
2) Download the recommended MinGW from tutorial 1 and extract to C:/
3) Download SFML-1.6 and extract to C:/
4) Start codeblocks and create console project
5) Goto Settings -> compiler and debugger
6) Goto Search directories, add "C:\SFML-1.6\include" to Compiler and C:\SFML-1.6\lib to Linker
7) Goto Toolchain Executables and set "C:\MinGW32" as compiler install directory
8) Paste code from Tutorial 1 (the clock code)
9) Goto SFML-1.6 lib and copy sfml-system-d.dll and put inside the project directory
10) Goto project build options and make sure its on "debug" configuration
11) Paste "SFML_DYNAMIC" into #defines
12) add "-lsfml-system-d" to linker settings -> other linker options
13) Build debug build
14) Run and see that it works without debugger
15) press F8(debug) and watch as it fails to run and returns 1.

If anyone can do those steps, please confirm if it works for you.

it debugs fine if I use the static libraries. However dynamic libraries in debug (F8) causes:
Debugger finished with status 1

Also this ONLY happens in debug mode (F8).

Ah its happening again. Its ok when creating a simple sf::Clock, but creating an sf::Window causes "gdb.exe has stopped working".

the code is as simple as:

Code: [Select]

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

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    sf::Window window;

    return 0;
}

I recommend using the prepackaged compiler on the SFML page if you are having problems.

Are you referring to http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/mingw-with-gcc-4.4.zip

This is what I tried first that was causing the error

Well after installing every version of MinGW and GDB I could find, I found a link to TDM's GCC/MinGW32 build.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/tdm-gcc/files/

it was pretty good actually, I didn't go for the TDM build, but it offered the most recent stable MinGW (GCC 4.5), including the most uptodate GDB (7.1). This seems to be working now, hopefully I wont come across any other compiler/debugging problems...

Hi all,

I've recently switched over to SFML from SDL, ive so far found it great. The documentation and OOP style has caught my attention and my performance tests have shown it's much faster than SDL.

However i've run into a big problem. Basically I've used the code from the first tutorial, it runs fine in release, but when debugging, vista gives me the following error:

"gdb.exe has stopped responding" ... and then it tells me its looking for a solution.

Strange however, is this error doesn't appear if I comment out the main body (excluding return 0;).

code:

Code: [Select]

#include <SFML/System.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    sf::Clock Clock;
    while (Clock.GetElapsedTime() < 5.f)
    {
        std::cout << Clock.GetElapsedTime() << std::endl;
        sf::Sleep(0.5f);
    }

    return 0;
}

I have followed the tutorial closely and have installed the recommended MinGW and auto detected it in the toolchain executables setting in codeblocks.

Can anyone help me? It would mean alot!

Thanks

Aaron
