Why wont it compile? Should i make it a dos application, or windows?

If you''re using MSVC do the following:

Make a Win32 application.

Go to Project->Settings.

Make "Settings For" All Configurations.

Click on the "Link" tab.

Check "Ignore all default libraries."

Add sdl.lib, sdlmain.lib, msvcrt.lib and (possibly) libc.lib and libcp.lib to the "Object/library modules" textbox.

Instead of another variety of main you must use "int main(int argc, char *argv[])"
That should be all you need to do .

Also, make sure you put your libraries and include files in the correct places.

What if i am useing Dev C++?

I tried to get it to work with Dev C++ to explain how to someone a while ago and failed. I know it is possible, since I''ve used SDL with GCC (what Dev C++ uses) before. If you want to do it from a makefile or from the command line it is easy (see this page). However, I still haven''t figured out why it won''t work in the Dev C++ IDE .
