Hey all,

Recently got a hold of SFML 1.6 (for VC++ 2008). I'm looking to use it in conjunction with Ogre for a game (SFML will be the menu and audio).

Now, for testing, I tried some simple code.
Code: [Select]
sf::Music music;
music.OpenFromFile("rsrcs\music\alone.ogg");
music.Play();


The code itself doesn't bring any errors. I'm using VC++ 2010 Express, and I set-up SFML by using .

Again, there is no syntax error, or what have you (I have got the correct include statement earlier in the code).

However, it generates these build errors...

Obviously, that notes that the issue is within SoundStream.obj, but I have no idea what to do to fix it.

Help?

PS: The code is not within the main(), it is within a function used at the beginning of the game. However, I doubt that has any effect on it.

Are you linking with "sfml-audio.lib" on the additional dependencies?
Did you compile the correct configuration? Example: Compile SFML for "release" and use the "release" configuration when compiling your code.


If nothing works, try to replicate the problem with a minimal code programme.

You need to link against sfml-system too, because sfml-audio uses some classes of the System package.

@Contadotempo: Yeah. I've done all that. I had thought it might of been that, so I completely re-did it. Still got the errors.

@Ceylo: I added in the SFML system part, and the linker errors are gone now. Thanks.

..you need to tell the main thread to wait (or do something else) while the other thread playing the audio is executing. Otherwise it will immediately finish (and that will kill the audio thread as well, so you won't hear anything).

In your short example, you could use this code:

sf::Music music;
music.Play();
sf::Sleep(music.GetDuration());
return 1;
