Build error c2248 when passing a pointer in a function

[That Martin Guy]

Hello!

So i get these folling errors when i try and run my program:

c:\users\axel\downloads\sfml-2.2\include\sfml\window\window.hpp(521): error C2248: 'sf::NonCopyable::NonCopyable' : cannot access private member declared in class 'sf::NonCopyable'
1>          c:\users\axel\downloads\sfml-2.2\include\sfml\system\noncopyable.hpp(67) : see declaration of 'sf::NonCopyable::NonCopyable'
1>          c:\users\axel\downloads\sfml-2.2\include\sfml\system\noncopyable.hpp(42) : see declaration of 'sf::NonCopyable'
1>          This diagnostic occurred in the compiler generated function 'sf::Window::Window(const sf::Window &)'
1>c:\users\axel\downloads\sfml-2.2\include\sfml\graphics\rendertarget.hpp(419): error C2248: 'sf::NonCopyable::NonCopyable' : cannot access private member declared in class 'sf::NonCopyable'
1>          c:\users\axel\downloads\sfml-2.2\include\sfml\system\noncopyable.hpp(67) : see declaration of 'sf::NonCopyable::NonCopyable'

1>          This diagnostic occurred in the compiler generated function 'sf::RenderTarget::RenderTarget(const sf::RenderTarget &)'
 

When i cut down the code to the one i show below, i found out its because i passed a pointer in a function:

//Note: this is obviously cut down
int main()
{
        sf::RenderWindow mainWindow;
        mainWindow.create(sf::VideoMode(1024, 768), "A window");

        show(mainWindow);
}
void show(sf::RenderWindow window)
{
        ..
        getMenuResponse(window);
        ..
}
void getMenuResponse(sf::RenderWindow window)
{
        ..
}

My question is what i can do to prevent this.

void show(sf::RenderWindow window)
void getMenuResponse(sf::RenderWindow window)

You need to learn basic C++ before trying to use SFML. If you read the error it is quite clear what the problem is.

when passing a pointer in a function

You are not passing a pointer...

'sf::NonCopyable::NonCopyable' : cannot access private member declared in class 'sf::NonCopyable'

You can not copy the window class, so either pass it as a pointer or reference to your function.

First of all, in the original program down i passed it by pointer, forgot to do it here.
Second of all, i could've sworn that i had tried doing as you told... Obviously i didnt, since its working now. 
Thanks for taking your time to answer this
