New to SFML (1.6) - Help compiling with other packages

[HelixFC3S]

Hey, I am just trying to get acclimated to SFML with Visual Studio 2010. I managed to install everything correctly despite the tutorial being subjected for the 2008 version.

I ran the "first SFML program" on the tutorial to test it (the one with the sf::clock) and everything compiled and executed properly.

I went down to the first Windows package tutorial, and I wanted to see how it works.

I copied the source code that was on the first tutorial, "Opening a window."

Code: [Select]


////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Headers
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#include <SFML/Window.hpp>


////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
/// Entry point of application
///
/// \return Application exit code
///
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
int main()
{
    // Create the main window
    sf::Window App(sf::VideoMode(800, 600, 32), "SFML Window");

    // Start main loop
    bool Running = true;
    while (Running)
    {
        App.Display();
    }

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}


Assuming I installed SFML correctly, this should work, correct? Well, when I compiled it, Visual Studio generated these errors:

Code: [Select]

It seems like only the Systems packages work but anything involving the other packages do not. Am I simply misunderstanding something or doing something wrong? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Did you link to the window library?

[HelixFC3S]

I linked the library directory, which is "D:\Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate\SFML\lib\vc2010" for me. The folder has sfml-window.dll, sfml-window-d.dll, sfml-window-d.ilk, and sfml-window-s-d.lib. So, is that the window library you are talking about?

Edit: Nevermind. I guess you were talking about in the Linker > Input configuration. I added all of this: "sfml-system-s-d.lib;sfml-window-s-d.lib;sfml-network-s-d.lib;sfml-graphics-s-d.lib;sfml-main-d.lib;sfml-audio-s-d.lib;" I only had the system library file, so now it works as intended. Thanks.
