sf::Music is running my cpu at 40-100%?

[insomniac]

I'm using sfml 1.6, I am only about a week into using sfml and I'm having trouble with audio no matter what rout I go. I compiled the basic sf::Music and sf::Sound tutorials and even those simple programs run my cpu 40-90%. So today I downloaded irrklang to see if maybe it was a problem with my computer,code,bug or what not. I played the same .ogg file and my cpu maintained 0-4%.
Is there something specific the tutorial doesn't mention that I need to do or is this common issue?

[Laurent]

You should try SFML 2.

[insomniac]

Ok Ill give it a shot and post back. Thanks!

[insomniac]

Well I've been up over 24 hours so setting up my compiler was a fail, I thought I followed the tutorial to the T besides being uncertain of what 2.0 version I needed and then something about an sdk version!

Edit: Well after looking at the errors I realized why I was getting them. I commented out some if the code that wasn't compatible with 2.0.

[eXpl0it3r]

It seems you're not linking the needed libraries (sfml-graphics, sfml-window, sfml-audio, sfml-system).
What compiler and IDE are you using?

[insomniac]

I'm using code blocks.
My linker settings: sfml-graphics sfml-window sfml-system sfml-audio.
My search directories: ..\include\SFML-2.0\include  which is the same as I had it set up for 1.6.

[eXpl0it3r]

And you've also changed the library search path to /.../SFML-2.0/lib, or are you still linking the 1.6 libs?

[insomniac]

Nope I cleaned the libs and include folder and replaced everything.

[Laurent]

Can you upload your .cbp file?

[Laurent]

You have one set of settings for "Release" and one global set of settings, this is not very clean. The consequence is that you have duplicated settings, and missing settings.

You should rather:
- define all the common stuff in the global configuration (compiler and linker paths, common compiler flags, ...)
- define all the Debug specific stuff in "Debug"
- define all the Release specific stuff in "Release"

-lsfml-audio should be written before -lsfml-system, the order is important (as stated in the tutorial).

And, most important: you add "SFML-2.0\include" instead of "SFML-2.0\lib" in the linker search paths.

[insomniac]

I wish I understood french  ! Guess Ill bring that to google translate.

[Laurent]

Oh my god

Don't bother with Google translate, I'm going to fix this.

[insomniac]

Kinda weird but not really I linked it like I did all my other libs and it compiled.
..\lib\libsfml-window.a
..\lib\libsfml-graphics.a

[eXpl0it3r]

Have you now added the directory to libraries to your search path? Because it's missing in the cbp file posted.

Here is one of my Code::Blocks project file, which I often use and which works fine:

Obviously if you'd use it, you'll need the specified paths.
