LNK4098 warning for LIBCMT while building graphics DLL

[iwn]

When compiling SFML2 using Visual C++ 2010 Express I receive the following warning:

Code: [Select]


Linking CXX shared library ..\..\..\lib\sfml-graphics-2.dll
 Creating library ..\..\..\lib\sfml-graphics.lib and object ..\..\..\lib\sfml-graphics.exp
 LINK : warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'LIBCMT' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library


Is it harmless in this instance? Why does it appear here?

Is it harmless in this instance?

It is. The MSDN can tell you more about this warning, if you're interested.

Basically, one or more libraries that SFML links is using a different version of the C runtime libraries ("CRT").

Have a read of this thread, here.

Laurent and slotdev, thanks for the clarification.
