I am sorry but I am not sure if this is a problem specific to MinGW, CMake, or SFML but I thought I might try and ask here. I get errors while building SFML using MinGW.
1. ExtractSFML-2.4.2-sources.zip
2. Create build folder
3. cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" ..
4. mingw-32-make
PS C:\libs\SFML-2.4.2\build> mingw32-make

I have made a Hello World c++ example and that compiled fine, but obviously the problem is inside winuser.h. I don't think this is a SFML bug, I think it is more likely that I setup my MinGW environment incorrectly. I have installed gcc, g++ and mingw32-make on my system, is there another component that needs to be installed? Any help would be appreciated
