C / Problem with DLLs

« on: June 26, 2011, 04:21:52 pm »

Let me take a look into my crystal ball... I see a videocard... an Ati videocard... wait there is more, I also see a 1.6...  

Sorry, for the bad joke. You probably have an ati videocard and are using version 1.6. To make it work you can do two things:

- static link sfml 1.6
- use sfml 2.0

Thanks Pete. I found a forum post from March-ish about the same thing I think, but figured maybe that was too old to be the same thing. These solutions work fine for me though.

If it is interesting to anyone, I'm 99% positive the DLLs worked fine until I installed an optional windows update that was something like "ATI blah blah".

Best, bug report, ever. =)

C / Problem with DLLs

Howdy,

I've recently begun having a problem with SFML. I'm pretty new to C++ so let me know what else you need to make sense of this.

The code in question:


When I build and run the above, the console appears but the program hangs forever. The break point is never hit.

If I comment out the construction of video_mode and do a full rebuild, the break point is hit and everything proceeds as expected.

I am using the debug dll versions of the sfml library. The debug static versions seem to work fine.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
