Hello.
I am having problems with SDL and VC++ 6.0
I followed the instructions for using SDL in VC6, but I still get unexplained errors. I can't see what i'm doing wrong, has anyone else got any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
Did you make your project a console app?
No matter what I do I still get the same error. I've tried all the console and Win32 application types that are available in my VC6. The SDL VC++ page says that you should make your project a multithreaded DLL.
That gets rid of the errors, but the program doesn't execute then. No console window comes up and, from what I can gather, no code gets executed.
Hmm looks like you should make a console app, and add:
#include <stdlib.h>
Try that
Ok I got mine to compile by doing the following:
Copying all the includes and libs in to the include and lib directories under MSVC.
Created a new console win32 app
Copied the dll into my project folder
Changed the compile option to multi-threaded DLL
The used this code:
And it compiles and a window pops upPHP Code:#pragma comment (lib, "SDL.lib")
#pragma comment (lib, "SDLmain.lib")
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "SDL.h"
int main( int argc, char* argv[] )
{
// Body of the program goes here.
return 0;
}
Thanks. I'll try that
It worked! Thanks a million!
Glad to help
