SOLVED SFML can not open window.hpp

[Bob man]

I keep getting a error message I don't know what is the problem. The error message is "1>C:\Users\user\source\repos\Sfml\External\include\SFML\Graphics.hpp(6,10): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'SFML/Window.hpp': No such file or directory"

Please help

post your code, your OS, your SFML version (and how did you install it)

[Bob man]

as for the code all I have is

#include <iostream>
#include "..\External\include\SFML\Graphics.hpp"
#include "..\External\include\SFML\System.hpp"
#include "..\External\include\SFML\Audio.hpp"
#include "..\External\include\SFML\Network.hpp"
#include "\External\include\SFML\Window.hpp"
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    cout << "Hello World!\n";
}
 

I am using windows 10. Installed it through sfml. I added dependencies for c/c++ general, dependencies for input and general

You are missing the .. on the window.hpp include line.
..\ means go back one directory. Just a \ at the start means go to the root directory of the hard drive, which is a very different location.

I tried it but it didn't help its more about it not finding the window.hpp in graphics.hpp

[Stauricus]

there is no window.hpp in graphics.hpp 
you changed the path as kojack said?

Edit: Oh, I see the thread is now titled as solved. Cool. Ignore the below then.

No, there is a window.hpp include in graphics.hpp (line 32 in my version).

What did you set your include path to in your compiler? The graphics.hpp one is explicitly <SFML/Window.hpp> so it's looking in the include path for that. So you'd need to have External\include as part of the include path.
In visual studio c++, the addition includes setting is either relative to the project (where the .vcxproj file is) or an absolute path. If you are using mingw or something, that's not my area.

If you aren't sure how to get the correct include path, let us know the absolute path of where your window.hpp file is (for example c:\sdks\External\include\SFML\window.hpp) and the absolute path for your project file (for example C:\Users\kojack\source\repos\ConsoleApplication24\ConsoleApplication24.vcxproj).
