Crash error with Windows Vista / Visual Studio 2008
« on: January 30, 2010, 06:10:15 pm »
Hi,

I followed all the instructions to setup Visual Studio 2008 and the project to link the static libraries,

the release mode to the release libraries:
sfml-system-s.lib sfml-graphics-s.lib sfml-window-s.lib sfml-audio-s.lib sfml-network-s.lib

debug mode:
sfml-system-s-d.lib sfml-graphics-s-d.lib sfml-window-s-d.lib sfml-audio-s-d.lib sfml-network-s-d.lib

The project complies successfully but it crashes when it runs: saying "Game.exe stopped working".

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Nicolas.


The code is:
(it also doesn't work with the first example of Window tutorial).

Code: [Select]
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Headers
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <iostream>


////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
/// Entry point of application
///
/// \return Application exit code
///
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
int main()
{
    // Create main window
    sf::RenderWindow App(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "SFML Shapes");

    // Start game loop
    while (App.IsOpened())
    {
        // Process events
        sf::Event Event;
        while (App.GetEvent(Event))
        {
            // Close window : exit
            if (Event.Type == sf::Event::Closed)
                App.Close();
        }

        // Clear screen
        App.Clear();

        // Draw predefined shapes
        App.Draw(sf::Shape::Line(10, 10, 710, 100, 15, sf::Color::Red));
        App.Draw(sf::Shape::Circle(200, 200, 100, sf::Color::Yellow, 10, sf::Color::Blue));
        App.Draw(sf::Shape::Rectangle(350, 200, 600, 350, sf::Color::Green));

        // Build a custom convex shape
        sf::Shape Polygon;
        Polygon.AddPoint(0, -50,  sf::Color(255, 0, 0),     sf::Color(0, 128, 128));
        Polygon.AddPoint(50, 0,   sf::Color(255, 85, 85),   sf::Color(0, 128, 128));
        Polygon.AddPoint(50, 50,  sf::Color(255, 170, 170), sf::Color(0, 128, 128));
        Polygon.AddPoint(0, 100,  sf::Color(255, 255, 255), sf::Color(0, 128, 128));
        Polygon.AddPoint(-50, 50, sf::Color(255, 170, 170), sf::Color(0, 128, 128));
        Polygon.AddPoint(-50, 0,  sf::Color(255, 85, 85),   sf::Color(0, 128, 128));

        // Define an outline width
        Polygon.SetOutlineWidth(10);

        // Disable filling and enable the outline
        Polygon.EnableFill(false);
        Polygon.EnableOutline(true);

        // We can still use the functions common to all SFML drawable objects
        Polygon.SetColor(sf::Color(255, 255, 255, 200));
        Polygon.Move(300, 300);
        Polygon.Scale(3, 2);
        Polygon.Rotate(45);

        // Draw it
        App.Draw(Polygon);

        // Finally, display the rendered frame on screen
        App.Display();
    }

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Compile in debug mode, then run the debugger (F5). It will tell you where exactly the crash happens.

Many thanks, Laurent!

The line which is the error is : App.Clear();

I don't have idea of what can be.

Thanks again,
Nicolas.

Are your drivers up-to-date?

Hi Laurent,

I am not very sure I have the latest ATI drivers. Independently of that I found very strange the error, I run a lot of software at my computer without that crashes.

Do you think that it can be a Driver issue?

Thanks in advance,
Nicolas.

Have you tried to run the precompiled samples from the SFML SDK?

Hi,

Now I tried running the precompiled samples and work fine :).
Do you think I should recompile the libraries with my Visual 2008 version?

Thanks in advance!
Nicolas.

Ok, now you can try to recompile those samples and test them again. :)

When something crash with my Visual Studio projects and SFML is because I update from SVN and dont compile the dlls or libs.
