compiler problem

Post by TheNewGuy »

hello, i just started using SDL this week and for some reason my compiler wont make the window appear. No errors come up when i run it, it just doesn't show up. i followed the tutorials from lazyfoo twice and i even downloaded the code from the link at the bottom of his tutorials. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :bow:

Post your code any maybe we will find a problem.

If not, make sure you've linked the libraries correctly.

Also what IDE and compiler are you using?

Make sure you have the latest version of SDL.
