Using SDL with Dev-C++ 5

Can anyone tell me how to do it?
A place to get the SDL stuff, and how to make it work with Dev.

JSL, help the poor lad. He isn't just another know-nothing n00b. He's seriously knowledgable.

I can't recall where to get the SDL libraries. But you have to link sdl.lib and sdlmain.lib if I recall correctly.
sdl homepage
sdl "dev-c++" - particularly (seems as if it may be date though)

Actually, I had found the SDL libraries and stuff already, I was just making sure there wasn't some perfect site to get updated SDL stuff. I guess what I have is fine. I don't really understand where I link the .libs. In the compiler options or the project options?

I think it'd be in Project Options, not compiler.
MarauderIIC and I don't settle for Dev-C++, so we won't be of much use to you.
JSL checks the forums once a day when he's at school. By tomorrow, he'll have an explanation.
He'd better, or this is his penis:
Any questions?

Gah! You sick freak.
Ok, yeah, go to project options. I believe the first text box thing is where you type in the -lib thingys. I'm at skoo now so I can't check. Also, you have made a fine choice using Dev-C++, you don't have to settle for Vc++6's stupid required .dll's. If that doesn't work, tell me and I'll try at home.

Okay, I linked the SDL.a and SDLmain.a in the project options. It got rid of most the errors, but there is one left.

.a? It was supposed to be .lib. Also, don't forget you need to:
Code: Select all
#include "sdl.h"

I've never heard of that kind of build error..... what did you type in that lib box?
Posted: Thu Dec 09, 2004 9:57 pm
.a? Linux libraries? No.. those are .so... Find .libs.

I found a tutorial and got it working. Turns out .a files work as libraries.

#include <sdl/sdl.h>
#include <sdl/sdl.h>

Heh Heh, I don't think dinosaur sniper is around anymore. This topic is ancient. He probably won't see that.
