Need help with Visual Studio Tutorial

[VegetableNinja]

Hi,

New SFML user here. I've been following this tutorial here: http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/2.3/start-vc.php

Once I tried running the example code, I got these errors on Debug:

error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: static class sf::RenderStates const sf::RenderStates::Default" (?Default@RenderStates@sf@@2V12@B)
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: static class sf::Color const sf::Color::Green" (?Green@Color@sf@@2V12@B)

However when I run it on Release, it works just fine. What could be the cause of this?

I have these libraries in both my Debug and Release:

sfml-graphics.lib
sfml-window.lib
sfml-system.lib

(Example code I'm referring to:)

(click to show/hide)

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(200, 200), "SFML works!");
    sf::CircleShape shape(100.f);
    shape.setFillColor(sf::Color::Green);

    while (window.isOpen())
    {
        sf::Event event;
        while (window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();
        }

        window.clear();
        window.draw(shape);
        window.display();
    }

    return 0;
}

Thank you in advance!

If you read the tutorial you linked without skimming over it you would read that in debug mode you must link to libs ending in -d. So in debug mode link to sfml-xxx-d.lib files. Debug and release libs are not interchangeable.

I had tried that prior to posting this (In fact its still like that now) and the error is the same.

And if you aren't linking to static libs make sure SFML_STATIC is not defined anywhere.
