I wasn't 'reviving an old thread' merely passing on a comment that I thought might be of interest to other users!

« on: May 03, 2013, 08:59:02 pm »
I tried the sf::Mouse::getPosition(window).y and for some reason (although the function works OK by the way!) the x and y co-ordinates seem to be the wrong way round

Just to confirm: when linking to static libraries the problem does NOT occur and it runs perfectly. I have tried it with a number of different fonts. I don't know whether this means there is a problem with sfml dynamic library or something else. by the way Laurent I took your advice and am studying how to use the debugger properly!

Thanks Laurent,your comments are really appreciated. I will take note of what you said about using the debugger.
Meanwhile an update: I decided to try linking to the static libraries instead of the dynamic ones and the program compiles and runs with no problems

Hi Laurent. Thanks for your reply. Apologies for not formatting code block correctly.
When I ran the debugger it gave the following output, I don't know if this will help but here goes:

Graphics / program crashes when trying to use new font
« on: April 23, 2013, 09:43:24 pm »
Newbie again
I have recently started learning SFML and have managed quite well so far. I have a program which displays a number of circles and a rectangle in a graphics window (I know it's not very exciting). This works perfectly but, when I tried to add a font I get an error: "example.exe has stopped working". If I comment out the references to the new font it runs OK again. I am using VS 2010 with sfml 2.0 rc.
I have included the code I wrote complete with the references to the new font, commented out.
Sorry if this is just another stupid problem but I really am a complete beginner to SFML and I have looked at the documentation and googled the problem with no luck, so any advice is welcome.
Thanks

I have installed vs 2010 and will try the exercise tutorial on that.
I looked on the sfml website and it describes version 2 as 'release candidate, which I take to mean as beta (test) version. i am not keen to try this version at the moment as, being new to learning sfml, if any errors do occur I would not know whether the program or myself was the fault.

Thanks but I already checked that. As I said I have had no problems with the previous tutorials and I have taken the same steps to set this one up. I am obviously missing something and I just can't see what. Sorry to keep asking what are probably silly questions but I am fairly new to SFML.

General / linker problem with SFML and vs 2008
« on: April 21, 2013, 08:22:48 am »
Hi there. I am just learning SFML and have been working my way through the example tutorials on version 1.6.
I have had no problems up to now but, trying the 'drawing basic shapes' tutorial I keep getting linker errors: e.g. fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'sfml-graphics.lib.
I have set up the compiler and linker properties exactly the same as all the previous tutorials yet I keep getting this error with this one. Has anyone got any idea what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help.
