Problem Building the SFML 2.0 Release Candidate

[diegonolan]

I had sfml 2.0 running from the compiled source. I noticed that the sfml 2.0 release candidate was posted so I thought I would update and I am having trouble compiling a simple example, which I assume is a problem linking.

This is the error I get
main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: static class sf::RenderStates const sf::RenderStates::Default" (?Default@RenderStates@sf@@2V12@B)
1>C:\Users\Nolan\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\mapmaker\Debug\mapmaker.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

and this is all the code I am using

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

using std::cout;
using std::endl;

int main()
{
        sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(300, 200), "SFML works!");
        sf::Text text("Hello SFML");

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

        return 0;
}
 

Everything compiles except the ' window.draw( text ); ' line so there is something wrong there but I am unsure what it is.  The new release came with precompiled .dll's so I didn't compile anything with cmake or Nmake.  Also I deleted all old sfml related stuff so there shouldn't be a problem with that.  This is visual studio  2010.

Have tried to clean and rebuild your project?

Are you using static or dynamic SFML libraries?

[diegonolan]

I cleaned and rebuilt.  I am using static, and I included the SFML_STATIC define.

[Laurent]

Could you upload your project? If it could be self-contained, ie. I can open it and click "compile" directly, it would be perfect

[diegonolan]

My directories may be different than yours my sfml folder is in c:\sfml\SFML-2.0-rc\

Thanks for your help.

You're linking to SFML dynamically, not statically. And you're mixing debug and release.

Please read the tutorial carefully

Thank's that fixed it.  Sorry for being so careless.
