Visual Studio 2010 Can't Link!!!
« on: March 22, 2011, 10:02:59 pm »
I am having incredible difficulty getting the linkers set up.  I normally use devc++ and decided to switch to VC, but the tutorial on this site shows how libraries are linked in 2008, whereas I'm using 2010.

I have no idea what to configure where.  Please help me D:

My code
Code: [Select]
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <SFML/Audio.hpp>

void PlaySound()
{
 
    sf::SoundBuffer Buffer;
    if (!Buffer.LoadFromFile("blueschip.mp3"))
        return;

    sf::Sound Sound(Buffer);
    Sound.Play();

    while (Sound.GetStatus() == sf::Sound::Playing)
{
        sf::Sleep(0.1f);

   
        std::cout << "\rPlaying";
    }
}

int main()
{
PlaySound();
std::cout << "Press enter to exit...";
std::cin.ignore(10000, '\n');
return 0;
}


My error message:

Code: [Select]

You should link to sfml-main(-d), unless you declare a WinAPI style main() function.

If I'm correct, SFML1.6 doesn't work with VS2010.

If you really want to use SFML with VS2010 you'll have to download SFML2.0 and build the SFML libs/dlls yourself with Cmake.

SFML works with VC2010, but must be recompiled as there's no pre-compiled release for this compiler.
