I have an SDL program, or at least a fragment of one, and my friend wants to try it. When I sent it to him, however, he could not run it. I have never had a problem running SDL programs on my own computer, but obviously my own computer has all the proper libraries and files and such. I sent him SDL.dll, and he tried both putting that in his system32 folder and the folder that the program was in. Neither worked, however. It just flashed the program with a black screen the quit. What all is necessary to accompany an SDL program so that it will run on other computers?

Did you link the library correctly with a "static" link? This may be the problem.
Sorry for my delayed response...I was at school.

What would it mean to like the library with a "static" link? I have used google, and am getting some ok things, but nothing that clearly explains it.
Its just a way you setup your project for compiling I belive its under the general tab in the project properties area.
