General / VS 2022 isn't creating .exe file in empty project with Windows Desktop Wizard

« on: August 26, 2022, 02:31:12 am »

I have searched through the internet yet I can't find a solution to my VS 2022 "no .exe file found" error. I am a newbie in SFML and I followed every step on how to install SFML on VS code from the SFML website.

When I start a new console Project, I made sure it was an empty Project (check that check box). Add a .cpp file manually. Link all files to the Project and run the small code snippet from the example.

I also followed all the steps in adding the include and lib files to the projects properties yet when I compile, the folders for release and debug are created inside the Projects folder, yet I get a warning that the compiler can't find the Projects exe-file. This warning Starts with "There were build errors. Would you like to continue and run the last successful build?" which I always click yes then it gives the error.

The error is something like this - Unable to start Program:  '"c:\users\name\documents\Projects\ConsoleApplication1\Debug\ConsoleApplication1.exe"' The system cannot find the file specified . . .

Has anyone any ideas?

Here is my code though

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(200, 200), "SFML works!");
    sf::CircleShape shape(100.f);
    shape.setFillColor(sf::Color::Green);

    while (window.isOpen())
    {
        sf::Event event;
        while (window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();
        }

        window.clear();
        window.draw(shape);
        window.display();
    }

    return 0;
}
