General / Static linking help 2.0
« on: November 07, 2012, 06:17:09 pm »
Hi everyone,
I'm new to SFML so I have been following the tutorials religiously! Got everything working with dynamic linking in 2.0 but the instructions for static linking don't seem to be working. Tried the debug version and release libraries but it keeps asking for the dll files in the bin folder. So I tried linking to the bin folder and it works but the tutorial says you only need to link to the lib folder so I am bit confused.
Should I be linking to the lib folder or the bin folder or perhaps both?
Thanks in advance.
