Unhandled exception on window creation
« on: November 02, 2012, 09:06:52 pm »
#include <SFML\Graphics.hpp>
#include <SFML\System.hpp>
#include <SFML\Window.hpp>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
        int x=0,y=0;

        sf::VideoMode myMode(640,480,32);
        sf::RenderWindow myWindow(myMode,"board test");

        sf::Texture myTexture;
        if(!myTexture.loadFromFile("C:\\Users\\Voldy\\Documents\\Blue Tile.png"))
        {
                cout << " Could not load image" << endl ;
                return 0;
        }
        sf::Sprite mySprite(myTexture);
        sf::Event event;

        while (myWindow.isOpen())
        {
                while (myWindow.pollEvent(event))
                {
                        if(event.type == sf::Event::Closed || event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::Escape)
                        {
                                myWindow.close();
                        }
                        sf::IntRect myRect(x,y,32,32);
                        mySprite.setTextureRect(myRect);
                        myWindow.clear();
                        myWindow.draw(mySprite);
                        myWindow.display();
                }
        }


}

This is the code i am trying to run everything works fine
but when I try to run it i get an error saying "Unhandled exception at 0x75a6f7cc in board render tes.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x65742064.".
previously i was able to run the projects of sfml
no such error occurred.
now also i use the old projects and just write the code in them and works perfectly fine but if i make any new project i get this error.
please help me to solve this error

event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::Escape
Try removing that first. Did you step through code with debugger to see where exactly it crashes?

Are you sure you're not using .dlls and .libs compiled with other version of your compiler?

As far as creating at creation of window, i'm not 100% sure.
but there is ONE problem with your code.

You have these lines:

            sf::IntRect myRect(x,y,32,32);
            mySprite.setTextureRect(myRect);
            myWindow.clear();
            myWindow.draw(mySprite);
            myWindow.display();
 

inside the second while loop, when it should be under :)

so it'll be this:
#include <SFML\Graphics.hpp>
#include <SFML\System.hpp>
#include <SFML\Window.hpp>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
        int x=0,y=0;

        sf::VideoMode myMode(640,480,32);
        sf::RenderWindow myWindow(myMode,"board test");

        sf::Texture myTexture;
        if(!myTexture.loadFromFile("C:\\Users\\Voldy\\Documents\\Blue Tile.png"))
        {
                cout << " Could not load image" << endl ;
                return 0;
        }
        sf::Sprite mySprite(myTexture);
        sf::Event event;

        while (myWindow.isOpen())
        {
                while (myWindow.pollEvent(event))
                {
                        if(event.type == sf::Event::Closed || event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::Escape)
                        {
                                myWindow.close();
                        }

                }
                        sf::IntRect myRect(x,y,32,32);
                        mySprite.setTextureRect(myRect);
                        myWindow.clear();
                        myWindow.draw(mySprite);
                        myWindow.display();
        }


}


As FRex said, make sure your linker and includes are correct.

Maybe rebuild SFML lib, and remove all old SFML (if any)
