Disabling the CMD window that opens when creating a window

[Rubenknex]

Sorry if this is already discussed but I couldn't find it.

Every time I create a RenderWindow it also opens a CMD window. When distributing my game I don't want it to open. I'm sure there is a very simple solution for this but I have not found it yet.

Maybe you should create a Win32 Project not a Console Win32 Project.

When I set the SubSystem to SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS instead of SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE it gives me this error:

1>MSVCRT.lib(crtexew.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _WinMain@16

I think it means that I must change main to WinMain but I don't really know how  :? .

From my memory it should be something like this:

Code: [Select]


int WINAPI CALLBACK WinMain(
  HINSTANCE hInstance,
  HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
  LPSTR lpCmdLine,
  int nCmdShow
)
{
    // do sfml stuff


   return 0;
}

Thanks it worked!

Or you can link to sfml-main to keep main() and thus a portable code
