Weird sf::Font error
« on: June 28, 2014, 07:58:16 am »
   
sf::Font font;
font.loadFromFile("C:\\Windows\\Fonts\\Arial.ttf");

I always get this weird error when trying to load a font from a file.
"Error: 'font' does not name a type

Can someone help me figure out the problem?
I have Graphics.hpp included, and everything linked.

Apparently the problem was that I was trying to do loadFromFile() inside the class declaration, in the beginning of my .h file
It works fine when I do it inside a function.
