General / Re: undefined reference with peculiar name

Thanks, finally found it.

For some reason, on my Mac, it compiled, meaning I didn't consider that the order of my libraries could be the issue (because, as I say, it was linking quite happily). This also reinforced by miss-remembered belief about what order the libraries (mine vs. sfml) should be listed in.  Basically, I needed to put my library first because it depended on SFML, and I had it after (because I  have a bad memory). I knew it would end up being something that trivial, such a pain that having the wrong order worked elsewhere.

hey ho.

General / undefined reference with peculiar name

« on: May 11, 2016, 03:40:23 pm »

Hi,

I can't yet create a minimal example that reproduces this linker error - to my annoyance splitting my renderer from anything else allows successful compilation of a trivial usage of it. While I search for a minimal example that reproduces the error, is there anyone out there who can perhaps parse and understand this cryptic undefined reference so I might have a better idea what to look for?

g++, Ubuntu 16.04, everything installed through package manager.

Graphics / render text at opengl coords

cheers,
I can do the conversion happily enough, just hoped I wouldn't have too.

Graphics / render text at opengl coords

« on: September 14, 2010, 06:08:38 pm »

Hello,

Say my openGL coordinate system is not the same as the window coordinate system, and I've used various glTranslates etc to move to a specific part of the screen. Can I get SFML to write text at that location (the location where a glVertex would draw a point), or do I need to manually convert the coordinates?

e.g. Maybe I have a window of 800x600, and have used a glOrtho2D(0,50,50,0,-10,10), done a glTranslate off to (8,27), and want to draw some text there (a label on a bounding box). Do I need to manually convert that (8,27) to pixel coordinates in the 800x600 window, or can I directly get SFML to draw text at (8,27)?
