General / [SOLVED] SFML using 100% CPU (with limits on)

Wow I am an idiot. Instead of doing all that debugging I should have just reread the tutorial again. Alright this appears to be solved.

General / [SOLVED] SFML using 100% CPU (with limits on)

« on: September 13, 2011, 09:29:11 pm »

I have been trying to solve this problem since yesterday. I have chopped down my code down to nothing but the beginning exercise and the limit (I am using SFML 2)

Code: [Select]

       _render.SetFramerateLimit(60);
while(_render.IsOpened())
{
sf::Event currentEvent;
if(_render.PollEvent(currentEvent))
{
if(currentEvent.Type == currentEvent.Closed)
_render.Close();

_render.Clear();

_render.Display();
}
}

but it still maxes out my CPU. I used FRAPS to check the framerate and it is not even hitting 60 frames per second. I have tried SFML 1.6, SFML 2 and the static and dynamic libraries and nothing has changed. Nothing changes between release or debug either. I have an ATI 4800 series card. This library seems great (especially in trying to port an XNA game) but I just cannot seem to get it working on my end.
