I'm having a problem with SDL (currently using SDL 2.0 but the same problem occurs when using SDL 1.2) when linking to it in Windows. I'm currently using Code::Blocks 12.11 and the code surely isn't the problem, I could write the same code before on different operating systems\computers without a problem it's just that SDL will not link properly and I'm thinking it may have to do with the way I built it with MSYS, so if that's the problem let me know.
Here's what I get:

I've asked on the SDL forums, I got nothing, and when I look it up all I see is people saying to link winmm which I shouldn't have to do, and it doesn't work anyway. I can't figure it out. Any help?
