issues with sf::Int8
« on: December 22, 2013, 05:36:03 am »
I initially thought this was a issue with networking..

int main()
{

        sf::Int8 i = 1;
        std::cout << i;
        std::cin.get();
}

This piece of code prints a smiley face to the console screen, not 1

I was about to reply to your original post that sf::Int8 is actually a char typedef so it prints as ASCII not as number.

So cast to int or short or something, obviously: ;)
int main()
{
    sf::Int8 i = 1;
    std::cout << static_cast<int>(i);
}
