CodeBlocks installation trouble
« on: August 27, 2011, 01:47:46 pm »
Hello,

I'm having trouble installing SFML for use with my code::blocks IDE. When choosing "create a new project" -> SFML project, the SFML project wizard pops up, but I cannot make it see where I've installed the SFML lib and include folders.

The paths are:

C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\MinGW\lib
C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\MinGW\include\SFML

It seems that codeblocks cannot cope with the \SFML part of the include path. Could someone please help mne fix this? Simply copy-pasting the content of the SFML folder into the include folder does not work. Also, is this primarily a SFML-related or CodeBlocks-related problem? The two are clearly intended to be able to work together.

Cheers,
Mike

Laurent

Don't use "SFML project", it's buggy. Create an empty project and follow the tutorial.

And don't forget to save that empty sfml project as a template!
