Can't get even an example program to run

[7cardcha]

I have codeblocks 10.05 and Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.

I defined SFML_DYNAMIC and put

-lsfml-system
-lsfml-window
-lsfml-graphics
-lsfml-network
-lsfml-audio
-lopengl32
-lglu32

In the linker settings.


and added C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\SFML\include to  Search directories -> compiler and added


C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\SFML\lib to Search directories -> linker.


I then put all the dll's in the project folder and built and run this example.

#include <SFML/System.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    sf::Clock Clock;
    while (Clock.GetElapsedTime() < 5.f)
    {
        std::cout << Clock.GetElapsedTime() << std::endl;
        sf::Sleep(0.5f);
    }

    return 0;
}
 

All I get is program.exe has stopped working.

I searched this on google first.

I've no idea why it doesn't work but I'd suggest you to use SFML 2.

Do you get that error as soon as you start the application or only after a while? Does it happen when you run it from inside Code::Blocks or also when you just double click the exe file? Do you get any warnings when compiling? Can you set a break point in your source somewhere and let the debugger jump in at that position or does it crash before reaching the breakpoint?

It takes like .7 seconds to crash. Doesn't matter if I run it in codeblocks or not. No compile warnings. I'll try some of your suggestions as soon as I have time. Thanks.

With the same code here is the gdb debug.

You should not mix debug (sfml-xyz-d.so) and release (sfml-xyz.so) libraries.

And I still advice you to use SFML 2.

isn't that wrong linking order btw? I believe it should be:
-graphics
-network
-window
-system

Correct me if I'm wrong
