Yes, you're right.

It had to do with the fact that I tried to install from source before, had trouble with libs and then used apt-get. I purged libsfml-dev, then installed again, and the circle is up there.

Sorry for not having tried this before, but hope it helps other beginners who might make the same mistake =]

Thanks for the help!

Hi eXpl0it3r, thanks for helping =]

My graphics card:

General / Tutorial Question

« on: September 18, 2014, 07:49:45 pm »

Hi guys.

I'm starting with SFML now, and installed it following the SFML with Linux (http://sfml-dev.org/tutorials/2.1/start-linux.php) tutorial.

Everything went fine, but the test code opened the window without the green circle expected:

#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;
}

And compiled with:

g++ -c graphics.cpp
g++ graphics.o -o graphs -lsfml-graphics -lsfml-window -lsfml-system

Did anyone ever experienced this and could help me with the issue?
Thanks.

General / Re: Weird DLL error

« on: March 07, 2013, 07:07:06 pm »

Just so no one will bother, or to help future users, I decided to throw all my dll's into Windows's System32 and SysWOW64 folders, and now it works. I guess my error was: I was throwing the DLL's on the "\Project_Name" folder. Maybe I should have placed them on "\Project_Name\Debug" or "\Project_Name\Release".

I still find it weird, though, that Avast!'s sandbox was able to run it anyways.

General / [SOLVED] Weird DLL error

« on: March 07, 2013, 06:58:39 pm »

Hi guys. I'm a SFML beginner, and I just went through the process of installing it. What I did was to follow this tutorial (http://sfmlcoder.wordpress.com/2011/06/15/building-sfml-2-nmake/) to download SFML 2.0 and compile it for Visual Studio 20[12] with CMake and NMake. Everything went well, and I ran the sample code.

That's where things got weird. I use Avast! Antivirus, and it always makes a little sandbox for programs to run on it before actually running on windows. So, I compile my program, no errors, and run it. Avast! pops up, the program runs on its sandbox, I get my blank SFML window, all perfect. Then Avast! asked me if I'd like to allow my program to be executed on my computer, and I said yes. And then I got the message that "sfml-graphics-d-2.dll is missing". The thing is: 1) it's not, it's there on the executable folder and 2) it worked on Avast! sandbox!

Does anybody have a clue of what might be happening? Meanwhile, I'll recompile the sources and re-configure the project's properties all over again. Thanks a bunch.
