Author Topic: SFML Static libraries and /NODEFAULTLIB (Read 1942 times)

I built the static SFML binaries in Visual Studio. However, when I try to link them get a warning:
warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'LIBCMT' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library

Having done a bit of research, I checked the runtime libraries used in each case. However both the SFML projects and my project use multithreaded debug DLL for debug config, and multithreaded DLL for release config.

So the used runtime libraries match and yet I still get this error. Does anyone have any idea why?

Thanks in advance for your help, and sorry if this has been asked before and I missed the answer: I did look around, but nowhere did there seem to be a straightforward solution...

I've never really understood this warning, like you said everything use the same version of the standard library. You can just ignore it, like many people do.

Okay I'll do that then. Thanks for the quick reply

Even SFML's external libraries?

Yes.
