Visual C++ version expecting libgcc DLL?
« on: August 02, 2017, 12:14:57 am »
I'm fairly new to C++ development, so please forgive me if this is an obvious mistake but I didn't see any threads about this. I downloaded the Visual C++ 14 (2015) - 32-bit version of SFML, but when I compile my project and run the exe I get the following error: "the program can't start because libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is missing". I would expect that error if I was using the GCC version, but it seems strange that I am getting it with the Visual C++ version of SFML? Just making sure I really *do* need to link this library. Thanks

Sounds like you're not running the VS compiled exe, but some other one. No, VS doesn't work with libgcc.
