FindSFML for CMAKE

[Laurent]

The static libraries have the -s suffix (sfml-system-s, sfml-window-s, etc.).

Not in my folder, they are just normal..... Can you help me outwith the cmake part? I think i have failed there. And i havent been able to test anything for the past 4 days..

So you compiled the dynamic libraries.

Can you help me outwith the cmake part?

Sure. Tell me exactly what you did, and I'll tell you what's wrong.

Here
I generated that and got the normla libs. I only used the two things i circled

Well, what about reading the tutorial first?

PS: you could make your image less large, it makes some of the forum buttons go outside the visible area. We don't need all that empty space.

Sorry about the image but where in the tutorial does it say how to build it statically in cmake? Visula studio doesn't give me all the options like you said it would btw

[Laurent]

where in the tutorial does it say how to build it statically in cmake?

There:

BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
This boolean option controls whether you build the dynamic (shared) libraries of SFML, or the static ones.

Visula studio doesn't give me all the options like you said it would btw

Where did I say that?

I tried that just now and when i opened up the project it said that only system and main loaded

[Laurent]

Do you mean that other projects contain errors? Which ones?

No i generated the project for sfml and i tried both of the projects and the solution. (ALL_BUILD, INSTALL, and SFML solution) When i tried to open them in visual c++ 2010 it said it could not load these four things and here is the error:

Code: [Select]

Do you use the latest revision of SFML? This kind of problem was fixed a few weeks ago.

Ok I did everything and now when I try to run it in a program i get this:

I know i missed some stuff but this code should work.
Here is my code:

Code: [Select]

#include <SFML\Graphics.hpp>



int main()
{

sf::RenderWindow App;
App.Create(sf::VideoMode(800,600,8),"Hello");




// Start game loop
    while (App.IsOpened())
    {

App.Clear();
App.Display();
}
}

I did that and now its's not building the dll's in vc++

Can you give more details when you have a new error? It's not easy to help you if I have to guess what you did and what happens.

Look above at my edited post

You have to define SFML_STATIC to work with static libraries.
