Weird delay in launching SFML applications
« on: July 22, 2011, 02:47:05 am »
When I start any NEW sfml project, compiling and everything goes fine but when I try to launch the executable there is about a 15 second delay until the application actually launches and the window pops up on my screen.

If I launch an old SFML app (one that I had worked on a while ago) such as the pong example, it launches right away with no hicups.

I've double, triple, quadruple checked and all the project settings are the same between the old pong project file and any new project files.

Could it be that something has changed in the way Code::Blocks creats a new project now? (i'm not using the sfml wizard). Since I am probably using a new version of CB now, that's really the only thing I can think of.

Any suggestions?

Bizarrely, I have this exact problem on my desktop system, when running a Release build on Win 7.

When I run it on an XP machine, there are no problems. It is wierd.
SFML 2.1

Someone i know also has this problem on Win7, never experienced it myself in XP. There is no delay now tho, he reinstalled windows and now all sfml apps is working fine.
