Code Blocks cant find Libraries

[Chay Hawk]

I don't understand what's going on here, I have Code Blocks 13.12 with MinGW, I downloaded the "GCC 4.7 TDM (SJLJ) - 64 bits" version of SFML and I followed the tutorial, here:

http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/2.1/start-cb.php

exactly as it was shown and I get 3 errors. Here it what it says:

||=== Build: Debug in SFML Test (compiler: GNU GCC Compiler) ===|
\SFML-2.1\lib\libsfml-graphics||No such file or directory|
\SFML-2.1\lib\libsfml-window||No such file or directory|
\SFML-2.1\lib\libsfml-system||No such file or directory|
||=== Build failed: 3 error(s), 0 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s)) ===|


What is wrong? I have Windows 8 64 bit.


Also here is this from the build log:

-------------- Build: Debug in SFML Test (compiler: GNU GCC Compiler)---------------

mingw32-g++.exe -LC:\SFML-2.1\lib -o "bin\Debug\SFML Test.exe" obj\Debug\main.o   C:\SFML-2.1\lib\libsfml-graphics C:\SFML-2.1\lib\libsfml-window C:\SFML-2.1\lib\libsfml-system

It says mingw32, do i need to download the 32 bit version of SFML?

C:\SFML-2.1\lib\libsfml-graphics C:\SFML-2.1\lib\libsfml-window C:\SFML-2.1\lib\libsfml-system

This is not correct, please read the tutorial again and have a look at the screenshots. Do the same in your project.

Ok I forgot to take out lib in front of sfml, however I did that and I still get errors:

||=== Build: Debug in SFML Test (compiler: GNU GCC Compiler) ===|
\SFML-2.1\lib\sfml-graphics||No such file or directory|
\SFML-2.1\lib\sfml-window||No such file or directory|
\SFML-2.1\lib\sfml-system||No such file or directory|
||=== Build failed: 3 error(s), 0 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s)) ===|


If I do JUST

sfml-graphics etc.

I get these errors:

Can you post the content of your project file (.cbp)?

[Chay Hawk]

Yeah, it's the test code when you follow the instructions to set it up:

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(200, 200), "SFML works!");
    sf::CircleShape shape(100.f);
    shape.setFillColor(sf::Color::Green);

    while (window.isOpen())
    {
        sf::Event event;
        while (window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();
        }

        window.clear();
        window.draw(shape);
        window.display();
    }

    return 0;
}
 

[Laurent]

I didn't ask for your code, but for your Code::Blocks project file, the .cbp one.

[Chay Hawk]

Oh ok.

[Laurent]

You're still doing it wrong. I don't know what else to say, look at the tutorial, it's not the same as what you did...

[eXpl0it3r]

Once you actually get it correct I certain it still won't work, because you're using incompatible libraries, unless you have installed the TDM 4.7 x64 compiler on your own.
At best, compile SFML with your current compiler.
