General discussions / Cmake can't find SFML?

« on: August 11, 2011, 12:56:35 am »

Hi,
I'm trying to get one of the SFML 2.0 builds to work with my own project using cmake. CMake says it found SFML, but the include directory is set to not found. I'm using visual studio 2010.

Here's the code I'm using in cmake:

Code: [Select]


find_package (SFML REQUIRED)
if (SFML_FOUND)
include_directories(${SFML_INCLUDE_DIR})
target_link_libraries(OMG_Engine ${SFML_LIBRARIES})
endif (SFML_FOUND)


Here's the cmake output:

Code: [Select]


Found SFML: SFML_INCLUDE_DIR-NOTFOUND
CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
SFML_INCLUDE_DIR
   used as include directory in directory C:/Users/Marek/Documents/sfmlTest


How do I fix this?

Window / Strange problem with sf::Window and multiple threads

« on: June 17, 2011, 07:56:03 am »

Hi,
I keep getting a runtime error when trying to create a window with SFML 2.0 when the class itself was constructed on a different thread.

Code: [Select]


class testThread : public MyThread    //not derived from sf::Thread
{
public:
testThread() : foo(), MyThread() {  }    //thread starts upon construction
void run()
{
foo.Create(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "Test Window");
foo.Close();
}
private:
sf::Window foo;
};


When I try to run this, it crashes in sf::Window::Close() on the line

Code: [Select]

delete myContext; with the error  Unhandled exception at 0x000007fef35cf78f (sfml-window-d-2.dll) in SFML test.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xffffffffffffffff."

However, I found that if I added

Code: [Select]

sf::Window bar; right before foo.Create(), the whole thing worked. What am I doing wrong???
