I know that there is already a high volume of linking issues, but after reading through as many as I could which are similar to my problem I decided to post myself.
So I'm trying to link to the SFML static libraries (graphics, window, system) on Visual Studio 2017. I've downloaded the "Visual C++ 15 (2017) - 32-bit" package. After reading through the tutorial multiple times I'm still left with 1 linking error (after a copy+paste of the tutorial code):
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error LNK2019 unresolved external symbol ___std_swap_ranges_trivially_swappable_noalias referenced in function "unsigned char * __cdecl std::_Swap_ranges_unchecked<unsigned char,0>(unsigned char * const,unsigned char * const,unsigned char * const)" (??$_Swap_ranges_unchecked@E$0A@@std@@YAPAEQAE00@Z) Project1 C:\Users\user\source\repos\Project1\Project1\sfml-graphics-s-d.lib(Image.cpp.obj) 1
I've added "
C:\SFML-2.5.0\include" to C++ -> General -> Additional Library Dependencies, as well as "
"C:\SFML-2.5.0\lib" to Linker->General.
Also linked to the debug and static libraries in Linker->Input->Additional Dependencies.
Release:
sfml-graphics-s.lib;sfml-window-s.lib;sfml-system-s.lib;opengl32.lib;winmm.lib;gdi32.lib;freetype.lib;Debug:
sfml-graphics-s-d.lib;sfml-window-s-d.lib;sfml-system-s-d.lib;opengl32.lib;winmm.lib;gdi32.lib;freetype.lib;As well as adding SFML_STATIC; To C++->Preprocessor->Preprocessor Definitions for both Release and Debug.
Any help would be much appreciated. I have tried this on two separate machines and have only used SFML when I was running Linux. I know its a long post but after searching for a solution I've seen many posts often lack information so I decided to be as thorough as possible.
Thanks in advance!
