Font problems

[groenewoldr]

sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "CALENDAR");

sf::Font font;
if (!font.loadFromFile("arial.ttf"))
    std::cout << "no\n";

sf::Text text1;
text1.setFont(font);
text1.setCharacterSize(30);
text1.setColor(sf::Color::Black);
text1.setStyle(sf::Text::Regular);
text1.setString("ttestst");

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

    window.clear(sf::Color::White);
    window.draw(text1);
    window.display();
}


I'm pretty sure this should work, but for whatever reason, it doesn't import the font correctly, can anyone help?

What's wrong, any error? How do you know the font isn't imported correctly?
Can you cout std::endl (or flush) with your "no\n"? If you don't flush your stream it may not (or won't?) print its content until its buffer is full.
Where is arial.ttf located?

If the font fails to load for any reason, the application still continues.

Is the application outputting "no"?
