hi

i’m having trouble compiling my project using SDL_image 1.2.2.

visual C says this:

d:\programme\devstudio\vc98\include\sdl\sdl_image.h(46) : error C2146:
Syntax error : Missing ‘;’ before identifier ‘IMG_LoadTyped_RW’

and so on blah blah, 24 errors in all. how do i get rid of this? my
project settings should be correct.

thx
eik

What do you have before your “#include “SDL_image.h”” ?

looks like this:

#include <GL/glut.h>
#include <GL/gl.h>
#include <GL/glext.h>
#include <SDL/SDL.h>
#include <SDL/SDL_image.h>> > i’m having trouble compiling my project using SDL_image 1.2.2.

aha got it: if i remove the SDLCALL statement everywhere in the
SDL_image header everything works fine… what’s that used for?

It explicitly states that SDL uses the C API stack-based calling
convention, so that you can use the distributed SDL libraries in
applications that use other calling conventions (like fastcall).

More to the point: Upgrade your SDL installation, so SDLCALL will be defined.
