Unable to draw sprite

[WDR]

I am unable to draw a sprite from the sf::Texture and sf::Sprite classes. All the libraries are linked, all the dll's are placed correctly and even the image is in the right location. The image is also the same size as the window. The code also has no errors. Why am I getting an exception? 

Here's the code:

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <SFML/Window.hpp>

int main()
{
        sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(1024,768), "Window");
        sf::Texture image;
        if(!image.loadFromFile("images/splash.jpg"))
        {
                return 0;
        }
        sf::Sprite sprite(image);
        while(window.isOpen())
        {
                sf::Event event;
                while(window.pollEvent(event))
                        if(event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                                window.close();
                window.clear();
                window.draw(sprite);
                window.display();
        }
        return 0;
}

Here's the exception:

Because you use the release version of the SFML libraries in debug mode. And because you didn't read the tutorial

[WDR]

Okay... I included all dll's and linked all lib's. Still throwing me an exception.

Okay... I included all dll's and linked all lib's. Still throwing me an exception.

That's not the solution to the problem described by Laurent.

You are supposed to link the correct libraries, not all of them. Which ones, is written in the tutorial...

[WDR]

  That's what I meant also... I linked all the correct and required libraries. Still throws me the exception.

Edit: Works now but only works when I execute via the .exe file in the debug/release folder(s). Not working when I execute via Visual Studio 2010 in both modes. Says it failed to load image. But the .exe files load the image perfectly fine.

[Laurent]

This is also explained in the tutorials.

By the way, according to your output you're still doing it wrong, I don't know how it can work. Hint: the relevant paragraph is inside a big red box in the "Getting started" tutorial.

[WDR]

Oh my God! I'm passing off as ignorant to you, aren't I? Haha... I did read all of the tutorials before I even started to code! 

It isn't throwing an exception anymore. I know what I did wrong with the linking of libraries. I still have the executing from Visual Studio problem though.

[Laurent]

Oh my God! I'm passing off as ignorant to you, aren't I?

No, just as someone who made a stupid mistake or overlooked an important paragraph in the tutorial. Like almost everybody else

Look:

'Image.exe': Loaded 'C:\Users\WDR\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Image\Debug\sfml-graphics-2.dll', Binary was not built with debug information.
'Image.exe': Loaded 'C:\Users\WDR\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Image\Debug\sfml-window-2.dll', Binary was not built with debug information.
'Image.exe': Loaded 'C:\Users\WDR\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Image\Debug\sfml-system-2.dll', Binary was not built with debug information.

It's loading sfml-xxx-2.dll files, which means that you're still linking to Release libraries in Debug mode. Debug libraries are sfml-xxx-2-d.dll.
