SFML VS13 Entry Point Not Found

[dleanjeanz]

This is my code:

#include <iostream>
#include <SFML\Window.hpp>
#include <SFML\Graphics.hpp>

int main() {
        sf::Window Window(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "SFML Window");

        while (Window.isOpen()) {
                sf::Event Event;
                while (Window.pollEvent(Event)) {
                        if (Event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                                Window.close();
                }
        }
       
        return 0;
}
 

When I ran it, a console window and a message box showed up, said:
"The procedure entry point
?Init@locale@std@@CAPAV_Locimp@12@_N@Z could not be
located in the dynamic link librabry MSVCRP110D.dll"

It appears that the project might have not been set up properly. Make sure the SubSystem option (in the Linker section) is set to Windows.

Also make sure you are using SFML libs compiled for VS 2013 (if you downloaded a build from the official site then you have the wrong version).

Indeed, notice that in MSVCRP110D.dll you can recognize MSVC11 which is Microsoft Visual C++ 2012. So as zsbzsb mentions, you probably have libraries for 2012(=11) instead of 2013(=12).

Thanks guys. I've tried Xornand's solution but a error appeared while building:
'error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _WinMain@16 referenced in function _tmainCRTStartup'
File: MSVCRTD.lib(crtexew.obj)

[zsbzsb]

Because what Xornand said is not related to the problem at all, you must recompile SFML for VS 2013.


On a side note, if you want a Windows subsystem you must also link to sfml-main.lib.

I've been recompling SFML 2.1 with the instructions on this site: http://sfml-dev.org/tutorials/2.1/compile-with-cmake.php
I chosen the generator as 'Visual Studio 12'. When I configured it, a message box shown up said: 'Error in configuration process, project files may be invalid'
And the textbox at the bottom said:
'CMake Error: The source directory "D:/SFML-2.1" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.
Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.'
Any ideas?

You must of course download the source package, not a precompiled release.

[dleanjeanz]

I've been compiling SFML 2.1 with VS13. I've already compiled the dynamic libraries. But when I was compiling the static libs, some of the libraries could not be loaded when I opened the solution. Only sfml-main and sfml-system could be loaded. What now?

[didii]

Can you post the error message? This is normally shown in the output window.

[dleanjeanz]

It simply looks like this after I double clicked the 'SFML.sln' solution: http://goo.gl/qDFsAK
But at least, I copied these header files and linked those libs, compiled those lines of code in SFML and VS tutorial, and it worked.

[Laurent]

Either Visual Studio tells you why it couldn't load the projects, or they simply don't exist and then CMake should have told you why it didn't create them. In any case I can't believe you got no error message.

[zsbzsb]

What version of CMAKE do you have? And can you show the errors from VS as to why the projects failed to load?

[dleanjeanz]

My cmake version is 2.8.12.2
Using Qt 4.6.2
This what I've got at the bottom of cmake when configured SFML with VS12 generator: http://goo.gl/ivxzSW
The Visual Studio 2013 IDE showed up like this after I opened the SFML solution: http://goo.gl/qDFsAK
No error message at all

This what I've got at the bottom of cmake when configured SFML with VS12 generator

And of course you didn't forget to press" generate" then?

The Visual Studio 2013 IDE showed up like this after I opened the SFML solution

Is there anything in the "Error list" or "Output" tabs on the bottom? Did the IDE say something (in a popup window) when you first opened the solution?
