Why does this link chain not work (SFML static link)
« on: October 22, 2022, 02:50:51 pm »
I'm having issues statically linking a program on windows 10.
I have built SFML with cmake and now need to statically compile my code.
To do this I am using a Makefile that looks like this:

all:
    g++ main.cpp -o wampus.exe -DSFML_STATIC -I C:\lib\SFML\include -L C:\lib\SFML\lib -lsfml-window-s -
    lsfml-system-s -lopengl32 -lwinmm -lgdi32 -lsfml-graphics-s -lfreetype -lsfml-audio-s -lflac -lvorbisenc
    -lvorbisfile -lvorbis -logg

When I run mingw32-make all,  I get a pretty massive chain of errors, presumably because this link chain is not in the correct order. It there a way I can fix this?

Error snippet:

C:/msys64/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/12.2.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: C:\lib\SFML\lib/libsfml-audio-s.a(AudioDevice.cpp.obj):AudioDevice.cp:(.text$_ZNSt8auto_ptrIN2sf4priv11AudioDeviceEED1Ev[_ZNSt8auto_ptrIN2sf4priv11AudioDeviceEED1Ev]+0x11): undefined reference to `__imp_alcMakeContextCurrent'

Ah thank you!
Still the same issue however.
Though this time the error is shorter and only talks about graphics and audio.
