BMP problems

Greetings. I come to you, again, to tell you tales of BMP loading errors.
Once again, when I use the function SDL_LoadBMP(“testing.bmp”) i will always
get a null value returned to my surface. I have sent my code in, and it
works for you guys, but I still have problems. I have extensively looked at
permissions and such, but even SDL_LoadBMP(“testing.BMP”),
SDL_LoadBMP("./testing.BMP"), and a full pathname will not work. Can anyone
give me any help? I compile like normal, no problems there.

Try tracing the process. If that doesn’t help, try single stepping in
a debugger.–

You could also provide the output of SDL_GetError() and tell us what system
and library version you are using.> ----- Original Message -----

Are you sure your compiler can find the bitmap?On 1/23/04 10:39 PM, “Brian Kropf” wrote:
