Linking SFML with Eclipse on Windows

[Daddi]

Try adding opengl32 to the linker list.

It looks like the opengl32 lib is missing, but why does he need it? I thought thats only needed if linked statically?

Not really sure either...
Maybe there's an issue that goes deeper, but for now, that's all I can see/think of.

link with opengl32 and glu32
and define SFML_STATIC while you are compiling with static SFML libraries
in other link options, add -static-libgcc and -static-libstdc++ while you are compiling with static libraries
link with OpenAL32 and sndfile while you are using sfml-audio

[eXpl0it3r]

He's not compiling static...

He's not compiling static...

so, he doesn't need to define SFML_STATIC and he must not use -static-libgcc and -static-libstdc++ in the linker commands while linking

Furthermore, what is this strange beeping noise coming from my computer? It only happens when a SFML program is running and this was the case for other implementations of SFML on this computer as well.

Is there also some weird output on the console? It's probably still a wrong configuration issue. Make sure you don't mix debug/release or anything else that might be incompatible.

yes, when you are compiling for debug build of your application, you have to use the libraries that have -d.a suffix
but, when you are compiling for your release build, you don't need to use the debug libraries
