Code::Blocks on Win7 - libgcc_s_dw2.dll not found.

[Raisapius]

Whenever I try to run my application from Code::Blocks itself (Run button), it works fine. But whenever I attempt to run it from the folder it's in, I am told that libgcc_s_dw2.dll could not be found.

I'm using gcc 4.4, the one linked from the installation page.

I have read this this thread already. Linking statically with -static-libgcc does nothing. I did read that SFML uses the Dwarf2 version of gcc, but apparently the one linked from the installation page is the SJLJ version.

Is there anything I can do, or will I have to just find and place the DLL in the folder (which doesn't seem like a good idea to me)?

First, you should compile static sfml libs yourself with the compiler you will use for compiling your app.

Second try adding -static-libstdc++ to the linker options.

I have this same problem, if I only link with -static-libgcc it does nothing
it has to also be linked with -static-libstdc++ to get rid of both DLL dependencies from libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll and libstdc++-6.dll but it makes
the size of the executable increase exponentially,
So my question is. Can I get rid of libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll with out getting rid of libstdc++-6.dll?

Well I sorta can if I link with -static-libgcc alone it adds about 10KB to my executable but it doesn't get rid of the libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll dependency(or the libstdc++-6.dll but w.e).
And code block gives me a weird warning when I only link static with libgcc and not both libgcc and libstdc++.

I don't think it has anything to do with SFML libs though

I'm using C::B 10.05 and GCC  4.5

Did you define SFML_DYNAMIC?

[purkskis]

Did you define SFML_DYNAMIC?

yes

[Laurent]

You wrote SFML_DINAMIC :lol:

[purkskis]

ouuu..  :oops:   :lol:

but question  how to statically link libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is still active  :?

[Laurent]

-static-libgcc in linker options.

[purkskis]

-static-libgcc in linker options.

it doesnt work
i hope this time there isn't spell mistakes  :lol:

[Laurent]

This works for me. If it doesn't for you, try Google to find relevant information.

It works, but not in the way OP wants it to - libgcc is linked statically with the program, but libstdc++ and probably other libraries as well are still linking with it dymamically. Thus, the dynamic one is still required.
