Hi there,

I'm just trying to get my SFML setup working properly so I can get started on a project and I've spent the past day trawling through forum posts old and recent but none of the fixes suggested before have worked for me.

I have built SFML myself using static libraries with the CMake GUI. I am using the CLion IDE.

Here is the contents of my CMakeLists.txt file:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.17)
project(SFML_test)

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -static")
set(CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE ON)

file(GLOB SOURCES "./*.cpp")
add_executable(SFML_test ${SOURCES})

# SFML
set(SFML_STATIC_LIBRARIES TRUE)
set(SFML_DIR "C:/Program Files (x86)/SFML/lib/cmake/SFML")
find_package(SFML 2.5 COMPONENTS system graphics window audio REQUIRED)
target_link_libraries(SFML_test sfml-system sfml-graphics sfml-window sfml-audio)
 

Here is the full build log with the error when I try and build:

I've tried switching around the linked libraries with no luck. I'm sure there's something very simple that I'm missing. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

What does the file CMakeFiles\SFML_test.dir\linklibs.rsp contain?

Have you tried find_package(SFML 2.5 COMPONENTS graphics window audio system REQUIRED) instead?
