Error loading audio file

[Laurent]

If you copied the right DLL at the right place, it can't say that anymore

ok so i got the sound example to work and it plays the sound without problem. i tried putting the sound file the the example used in my project at the working path location but it still fails to load.

what is the code i need to use to get sfml to print out error since what im trying to use isnt working.

Can you provide your code as a minimal example that still causes the issue?

[TeGeek]

so this is from when i tried to get sound to work on a seperate file and its not working

Code: [Select]

#include <SFML/System.hpp>
#include <SFML/Audio.hpp>
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>z
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <sstream>
#include <streambuf>


using namespace std;

#ifdef _DEBUG

#pragma comment(lib, "sfml-system.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "sfml-graphics.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "sfml-audio.lib")
#endif


int main()
{

sf::SoundBuffer buffer;
if (!buffer.loadFromFile("sounds/canary.wav"))
{
std::ofstream file("sfml-log.txt");
std::streambuf* previous = sf::err().rdbuf(file.rdbuf());
cerr << "i wantt more debuf info than this";
return -1;
}

sf::Sound death;

death.setBuffer(buffer);

death.play();

getchar();
return 0;
}

Is this a typo or do you actually have that 'z' in your source code?

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>z

[TeGeek]

its a type but that wasnt the issue got it solved by a friend. issue was with it being in debug instead of realease mode.
