Visual Studio 2005 & SFML-1.6

[mitchgc]

I've set up SFML with VS2005 successfully before, but have now come back to it and can't get it to work.

I'm using the sample on the tutorial page:

Code: [Select]

#include <SFML/System.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    sf::Clock Clock;
    while (Clock.GetElapsedTime() < 5.f)
    {
        std::cout << Clock.GetElapsedTime() << std::endl;
        sf::Sleep(0.5f);
    }

    return 0;
}

My additional include directories under C++ -> General:

"$(DEV_DIR)\SFML-1.6\include"

Additional library directories:

"$(DEV_DIR)\SFML-1.6\lib"

In my linker dependencies:

sfml-system-s-d.lib

When I run from within VS, I get the message:

"The system cannot execute the specified program."

I also get some warnings, which as I understand it, mean that I'm not using the correct debug .lib? But I'm using sfml-system-s-d.lib, and my Code Generation settings are Multi-threaded Debug DLL (/MDd). Here are the warnings:

1>sfml-system-s-d.lib(Platform.obj) : warning LNK4099: PDB 'vc80.pdb' was not found with 'E:\Dev\SFML-1.6\lib\sfml-system-s-d.lib' or at 'e:\dev\projects\sfml test2\debug\vc80.pdb'; linking object as if no debug info
1>sfml-system-s-d.lib(Clock.obj) : warning LNK4099: PDB 'vc80.pdb' was not found with 'E:\Dev\SFML-1.6\lib\sfml-system-s-d.lib' or at 'e:\dev\projects\sfml test2\debug\vc80.pdb'; linking object as if no debug info

I'm using a fresh, out of the box SFML-1.6 package. I haven't rebuilt the projects in the build directory, and from what I can see I'm using all the right project settings.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here...

I downloaded the 2008 package of SFML 1.6 and it worked fine.

C++ settings:

Code: [Select]

/Od /I "E:\Dev\SFML-1.6\include" /D "WIN32" /D "_DEBUG" /D "_CONSOLE" /D "_MBCS" /Gm /EHsc /RTC1 /MDd /Fo"Debug\\" /Fd"Debug\vc90.pdb" /W3 /nologo /c /ZI /TP /errorReport:prompt

Linker settings:

Code: [Select]

/OUT:"E:\Dev\Projects\SFML Test4\Debug\SFML Test4.exe" /INCREMENTAL /NOLOGO /LIBPATH:"E:\Dev\SFML-1.6\lib" /MANIFEST /MANIFESTFILE:"Debug\SFML Test4.exe.intermediate.manifest" /MANIFESTUAC:"level='asInvoker' uiAccess='false'" /DEBUG /PDB:"e:\Dev\Projects\SFML Test4\Debug\SFML Test4.pdb" /SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE /DYNAMICBASE /NXCOMPAT /MACHINE:X86 /ERRORREPORT:PROMPT sfml-system-s-d.lib sfml-window-s-d.lib sfml-graphics-s-d.lib  kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib winspool.lib comdlg32.lib advapi32.lib shell32.lib ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib odbc32.lib odbccp32.lib

I just downloaded the 2005 package of SFML 1.6 again to be sure, but it still won't work. What the hell?

Edit: Just pointed my VS2005 project to use the SFML package for VS2008 and it works fine... that's retarded. Edit: Until I included anything but System... when I tried an example with Windows it gives me:

I built the VS 2005 SFML 1.6 solution in both debug static and release static and it works fine now. Why won't it work using the precompiled libs?

[Laurent]

Maybe your version of VS 2005 is not compatible with mine (yes, it happens sometimes). What is your version?

[Laurent]

I can't compare (I uninstalled mine recently) but it looks ok.

[mitchgc]

Hm. I'd really love to know what I was doing wrong then, as it was as much of a barebone installation as possible, I'd thought.

[slotdev]

I use SFML 1.6 and VS 2005 under Win 7 64 bit, and everything works just fine. What can I send you to compare settings?

Did you recompile the SFML libs yourself?

Ed

Edit: Sorry I didn't see you had it working already!

Did you get it working without rebuilding the SFML projects?

[slotdev]

Yes I used the binaries from the site, set it all up and it was fine.
