[Fixed] Copying dlls
« on: September 08, 2010, 06:25:53 pm »
I am silly always copying SFML (among other libraries) dll's to my project directories. Is there a way to say all my executables to look to my SFML directory for the dll's?

I thought putting the dll's directory in the PATH environment (Windows) would work, but looks like it won't.

It should, you probably did something wrong.

This works because C:\Windows\System32 is in the PATH environment variable ;)

I fixed it. I must restart my computer to make the PATH changes work.
