The purpose of this assignment was to set up our Linux environment and experiment with the SFML demo code. Once we got the SFML demo code to run successfully, we were asked to draw our own sprite and make it respond by moving via keystrokes. We were also asked to add one additional feature, and I chose to have my sprite change colors when it collided with the edge of the window. One of the key algorithms of the test code was the nested while loop for window.isOpen and window.pollEvent(event). This was immediately familiar to me because it is very closely related, if not identical, to “the game loop”, used in game development. The algorithm is essentially an infinite loop used for updating sprite positions, variables, or anything you want to change in your program every frame. By having the sprite coordinates increment by 2 in a direction depending on the key pressed every time the loop executes, I can make the sprite move across the window. I hadn't had experience with SFML at all before this assignment, so I learned how to create sprites, textures, and shapes as well as how to display them in an SFML window.

Winaso registry optimizer 4.8.6 serial key. Open Codeblocks. Go to Project-Build Options-LinkerSettings tab. Click on the Add button and go to the bin folder of SFML and select all the files present there. Now go to the Search Directories tab and add the 'include' folder of SFML. Undefined symbols for architecture x8664: CMMotionManager with SFML. The problem ended up being that I did not include the dependencies of libsfml-window-s.a in my project. One of the required dependencies was CoreMotion.framework.

  2. Setting up SFML. This short tutorial will guide you through downloading the SFML files that allow us to include the functionality contained in the library in our projects. In addition, we will see how we can use the SFML DLL files that will enable our compiled object code to run alongside SFML. To set up SFML, follow these steps.
  3. SFML is used heavily in making games and even game engines. And even though SFML doesn’t support 3D rendering yet it is used for context creation. Since OpenGL can’t create a window, 3D graphics programmers use SFML (at least most of the time) for the task. Setting up Environment. Before we program in SFML we must set up the environment!
  4. In case you installed SFML to a non-standard path, you'll need to tell the compiler where to find the SFML headers (.hpp files): g -c main.cpp -I /include Here, sfml-install-path is the directory where you copied SFML, for example /home/me/sfml.
This tutorial series is aimed at beginners or intermediate programmers who want to get started with integrating Box2D and SFML into one project. The Setup tutorials are skip-able if your confident in what your doing.
In the first lesson we will set up an SFML project. The next section will add in the Box2D library (which is a little harder to do than SFML). This tutorial uses Visual Studio 2015. However, SFML has a good tutorial on their site if your using another IDE. If you still aren't too confident, download Visual Studio (Community version, it's free) and follow my set up tutorials.
I can provide a template if requested if anyone can't get it working for whatever reason. (though I advise beginners to try to learn to link libraries manually). Let's get started.

Step 1: Download SFML

Download here: http://www.sfml-dev.org/download.php
Answer

I am using Visual Studio 14 (2015) for this tutorial but any version will be fine if you want to follow along. Do download the 32 bit version (even if your PC is 64 bit) so your application can run on multiple systems.

Once you download the correct version, extract your zip somewhere you will remember.

Step 2: Create Visual Studio Project


Choose Win32 Console Application. The console can be coded out later but is helpful during development. I named my project 'SetupFun' (though name in this picture is 'setup').

Use these options then click finish.

Step 3: Create include and lib directories for the project


Find your project (SetupFun is my project name) directory. Should look like this.
We are going to add 2 folders to the project, an include folder and a lib folder. These folders will be used to include both Box2D and SFML (and can even be used to include more libraries in the future). Name the folders exactly how I did (ie all lowercase).
Okay now open your SFML folder that you downloaded and unzipped in step 1.
Notice this folder also has an include and lib folder. copy and paste the contents in sfml include (should be one folder called SFML) into your include folder and do the same for lib. When all is done your project folders should look as such:
project include folder contents

projects lib folder contents


Just a simple copy and paste!

Step 4: Linking SFML in Visual Studio

Go back into Visual Studio where your project is. Create main.cpp file under source files (right click add new file) and write a simple main function as such:







Press control+shift+b to build this program. (Note for beginners: doing this allows VS to display the correct settings in our next step).
Now we can right click on our solution and go to properties.

Go to C/C++ (this was created by building our simple program) and go to general. Under Additional Include Directories type: $(SolutionDir)include
To briefly explain the meaning of this (for those curious), $(SolutionDir) is a macro that tells the computer to 'look for a folder that is in the same directory as my .sln file.' Since we built the project in the last step, you should have a .sln file now.
Another method would be to simply just add your include folder to the project. However using the macro makes things easier if you need to move files around. Anyways here's what things should look like.


We are now going to apply this same macro for our library files. Go to linker, then general and type: $(SolutionDirlib)


Okay now we got to actually link the SFML library and we should be good to go. Go to linker and then input.


Under additional dependencies, click the drop down bar and press 'edit.' Include the following libraries:
sfml-audio-d.lib
sfml-graphics-d.lib
sfml-window-d.lib
sfml-system-d.lib
sfml-system has to be at the 'bottom' because the other 3 libraries depend on it (this is just the way VS does linking). Just copy and paste exactly what I have. the '-d' will link the libraries dynamically which is usually the better option when developing programs. Anyways, here is what your screen should look like.
Once done hit OK. Then don't forget to hit the apply button at the bottom!

Step 5: Copy and paste the .dll files (last step)

Open your project folder again. There should be a folder called 'Debug' that is created when we built the project. If there isn't one, go ahead and rebuild the project.
In another tab, go to your SFML download (Wherever you extracted it). Go to your bin folder
In your bin folder you will see a bunch of .dll files.These stand for 'dynamic link libraries' and we will need them since we linked dynamically.

Anyways, just copy and paste all these .dll files into you debug folder in your project and call it a day. (We technically don't need all of these but being lazy is cool). Do note that we may have to include more .dll files in the future (like the openal32.dll most likely). But the ones in the SFML bin should do for now.
Your debug folder should look something like this:
And we are done. Let's go ahead and test our project.

Testing our project

Open your project in visual studio.
Let's make sure SFML works now. Go ahead and copy and paste this code:
You should just have a window pop up. The next tutorial will be on setting up Box2D in the same project as this SFML one we created.
