I want to build everything by myself. Can you provide me a list of dependencies?

for windows I mean

Everything which is in the "extlibs" directory is an external dependency.

so i can just download those libraries and rebuild them myself? i wonder if you maybe build those libs in somewhat different way.

Some of them are a PITA to build on Windows, so I wrote CMake makefiles for all of them.

But why do you want to recompile them?

it seems to me that damn VS2010 has replaced their c++ libs with some multi-threaded crap which is no longer 100% compatible with older built static libraries and i get lots of warnings about that compatibility issues. the best idea is to just recompile with new libraries. I think it'll be faster to do rather then trying to fix that and hopefully more stable then.

Hum, apparently many VC++ 2010 users compile and use SFML 2 without these problems.

how many of them shipped something to public?

the warning may appear later in cycle. besides i'd like to build a solid file with everithing built as static libs. otherwise it's possible to end up having to provision several c++ runtimes on a target machine or mixing multithreaded new stuff with old singlethreaded.

The external libs are compiled so that they link to the static C runtime -- but it probably doesn't matter, since they are static libraries they don't link to anything anyway. Linking is done later, when compiling a binary that uses these static libs.

Anyway, if you end up with something that may be useful to other VC++ users, let me know
