Hello ladies and gents,

Just as a note, I've came across this issue before and was able to resolve it by using Visual Studio (rather than mingw), but I don't know that this should be necessary.

I've written an SDL2 based library, and created a make file:

Quote:

CC=mingw32-g++
CFLAGS=-O2 -Wall `sdl2-config --cflags` -I./include
LDFLAGS=`sdl2-config --libs` -lSDL2_ttf -lopengl32 -lglu32
OTHERFLAGS=-static
SOURCES=application.cpp event.cpp exceptions.cpp thread.cpp window.cpp
EXECUTABLE=sdlui

all:
$(CC) $(OTHERFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(SOURCES) -o $(EXECUTABLE)

clean-executable:
rm -f $(EXECUTABLE)

clean: clean-executable

rebuild: clean all

The output I get, however, is quite bad:

Quote:

mingw32-g++ -static -O2 -Wall `sdl2-config --cflags` -I./include `sdl2-config --libs` -lSDL2_ttf -lopengl32 -lglu32 application.cpp event.cp

mingw32-make: *** [all] Error 1

So, first thing I thought was the sdl2-config was giving bad output, so I did sdl2-config --libs --cflags and got this:

Quote:

$ sdl2-config --libs --cflags
-L/usr/local/lib -lmingw32 -lSDL2main -lSDL2 -mwindows
-I/usr/local/include/SDL2 -Dmain=SDL_main

The directories and libraries are all correct.

So, now I'm down to a few options. Either I broke my mingw/msys config (which is possible), or SDL2 broke mingw32 builds.

Anyone else with experience with the latest SDL2 from hg (just pulled this morning) and mingw32? If anyone else has built it, then I'll try re-installing mingw32 to see if that fixes it.

Thanks,
-Alex

Can you try running mingw32-g++ -static -O2 -Wall `sdl2-config --cflags` -I./include -lSDL2_ttf -lopengl32 -lglu32 application.cpp event.cpp exceptions.cpp thread.cpp window.cpp -o sdlui `sdl2-config --libs`

That is with the SDL2 libraries at the end of the command line, if you updated MingW32 recently it's possible they've switched GCC versions and the dependency solving "feature/bug" is causing those unresolved symbols.

That gives me a bunch of different errors, but it does link to SDL:

Not sure how to fix this either, but we're moving in the right direction Smile

The solution is to start rearranging your command so libraries that depend on others appear first (in a left to right order) in the command line...

So, as SDL2_ttf depends on SDL2, you'd put it first. After SDL2 you'd put opengl32 because SDL2 will be using it,etc. It may be even possible you'll need to list a library twice.

Just a note to other people who come across this thread, what I ended up doing was reverting to an older version of gcc and g++ by doing the following in the msys shell:

$ mingw-get install gcc-v3-core
$ mingw-get install gcc-v3-c++

Note: This will change the default gcc version on your system - if you want to return to gcc 4.x (I think the names may change in the eventual future of gcc 5.x), do:
$ mingw-get install gcc-core
$ mingw-get install gcc-c++

Then, I was originally trying to build a static library, which was still giving me issues in gcc 3.x, so I tried building with -shared rather than -static, and everything built fine.

Gabriel, thanks for the troubleshooting - I've been doing a lot of windows development for work lately and haven't touched gcc in a while. I'm sort of surprised at how messed up the linker is in gcc 4.5.x, but maybe that's intentional in some sense? I don't know, but anyway, thanks for the help!

Hope that helps someone else down the road, too,
-Alex

The SDL forums have moved to discourse.libsdl.org. This is just a read-only archive of the previous forums, to keep old links working.
