For this I am basically just trying to print the letter A onto a window and I am getting the error posted. I am really not sure where to start with this one.
#include
#include <SDL.h>
#include <SDL_ttf.h>
int main(int argc, char ** argv) {
bool exit_window_input = false;
SDL_Event event;
SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING);
TTF_Init();
SDL_Window * window = SDL_CreateWindow("Sorting Algorithms Visualized", SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED, SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED, 640, 480, 0);
SDL_Renderer * renderer = SDL_CreateRenderer(window, -1, 0);
TTF_Font * font = TTF_OpenFont("arial.ttf", 25);
SDL_Color color = { 255, 255, 255 };
SDL_Surface * surface = TTF_RenderText_Solid(font, "A", color);
SDL_Texture * texture = SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(renderer, surface);
//loop forever waiting to quit
while (!exit_window_input) {
SDL_WaitEvent(&event);
switch (event.type) {
//If the user presses the x (SDL_QUIT) the loop is broken
case SDL_QUIT:
exit_window_input = true;
break;
}
//If it does not close display
SDL_RenderCopy(renderer, texture, NULL, NULL);
SDL_RenderPresent(renderer);
}
//close and shutdown the window, the renderer, and the program itself
SDL_DestroyRenderer(renderer);
SDL_DestroyWindow(window);
SDL_DestroyTexture(texture);
SDL_FreeSurface(surface);
TTF_CloseFont(font);
SDL_Quit();
return 0;
}
