Am recieving the following errors within Visual Studio 2010 C++ and need to know which lib files are required…

Build FAILED.
I am trying to build the sine scroller effect from the demo effects collection which is written in C and meant to be compiled under linux.
I am attempting to build it under windows 7 using visual c++ 2010. If anyone has already managed to convert these for visual studio it would save me a lot of time and effort as i`m a newbie to c++.[/b]

Just need the lib files for the above missing symbols… Someone must know?

Sorry im confused.. I need a missing .lib file as far as i know and your saying compile the library in common. SDL_image.lib is the only lib file in there and its already added to my project. Please explain im a newbie to C++
This is where it gets potentially difficult, if you’re new to the
Visual Studio environment. You’re on windows. The library you want
doesn’t even have a visual studio project file.
But lucky for you, the projects only dependency is on SDL. To port
the library all you have to do is add the files to a new c++ project,
give it a name, compile it and add the lib to your own project.> Sorry i`m confused… I need a missing .lib file as far as i know and yourr

i know all that which brings me back to my original request… Im missing a lib file and i dont know which… Its not sdl.lib or sdlmain.lib or sdl.dll as they are already added.
Ok i managed to compile the library in common as tdec.lib i then added this missing lib file to my original sinus scroller project and hey presto after months and months of being stuck on this 1 problem it compiles!!
Sadly upon launching it i`m presented with a window and nothing happens apart from a blank screen… sigh, who knows what next could be anything. I give up…
Well, you probably won’t like this. The tdec library is looking pretty
aged. By years.
You may have to downgrade your copy of SDL.
This could mean recompiling everything, just so it can work in VS2010.On Wed, Aug 18, 2010 at 7:29 PM, tcn31 wrote:

Yeah your probably right although why I cant find any modern examples of scrolling texts or sine scrollers really is a pain.. I guess ill start researching direct2d/3d/x and start from scratch my own personal project. With little c++ experience though its tough… I was much happier playing around with other peoples examples and learning that way. The problem I have with going it alone is I never know in which order code must be programmed in and very often i`m lost in code.
