[solved] error: ‘sf::Time’ has not been declared

[nietaki]

I am using the latest 2.0 version and everything works fine except for the sf::Time class, which isn't getting imported

Code: [Select]

#include <SFML/System.hpp>
class Widget {
  public:
    //...
    virtual void repaint(sf::RenderTarget *renderTarget, sf::Time sinceLastFrame) = 0;
};

and during compilation i get the following error:

[100%] Building CXX object renderer/CMakeFiles/renderer.dir/Widget.cpp.o

I'm sure it has something to do with the SFML_SYSTEM_API macro, but despite looking through the code I don't really understand how it works.

Any thoughts?

I'm using the latest 2.0 version from github under Linux, building shared libs.

Does it work if you include <SFML/System/Time.hpp> directly?

I'm sure it has something to do with the SFML_SYSTEM_API macro

No it doesn't, "xxx has not been declared" is a compiler error, the export macro would cause linker errors ("unresolved symbol").

I'm sorry, I don't know why I ever doubt your work....

I was using and older version of SFML from the system path instead of the one I installed elsewhere.

Sometimes I need a bonce over the head instead of technical help
