My SDL problem
Author
Ok, i have just installed the SDL pack with the bloodshed dev c++ compiler and am trying to start using SDL. It has been sucssesfully installed with no problems.
I went to cone3d and got a tutorial for SDL. When i tried to run the completed source code i got these errors:
- [Linker error] undefined reference to `SDL_LockSurface'
- [Linker error] undefined reference to `SDL_UnlockSurface'
- and loads of other things that begin with SDL_...
whats going wrong and how do i fix it?
You must link to the SDL lib file (can't remember its name SDLMain.lib?).
I can't tell you exactly how to do this, because I don't know which compiler you are using.
Good luck,
Pat.

Now in Dev-C++ start a new console project. Now go to the project options dialog (found in the menu Project). The thing we need to set here is the field that says "Further object files or linker options:". Type in "-lmingw32 -lSDLmain -lSDL" (w/o the quotes) inside it. Now click OK.
Are you sure you did that? [edit]I mean the bold part[/edit]
