[SFML] errors when compiling a blank window

[mekkatorqu]

Hi,

First I wanna warn you that my english little sucks, so don't judge me please :)

I've just started to learn 2D programming, and I have little problem, I did everything like it says in this tut; http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/1.6/start-vc.php

console and that timer was working good, then I wanted to do this:

http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/1.6/window-window.php

and then I was getting error, so I googled something (I can't remember it) and found this video: http://vimeo.com/12544814 I did everything like he did + copied new libs and includes to VC folder, then I tried to make new blank window again (http://www.sfml-dev.org/tutorials/1.6/window-window.php )

I've tried it with empty win32 project, and windows forms application

win32 empty project (no stdafx included)

source code:

#include <SFML/Window.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::Window App(sf::VideoMode(800, 600, 32), "SFML Window");

    bool Running = true;
    while (Running)
    {
        App.Display();
    }

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

and in win forms app this:

almost same code, but included stdafx and form1.h

I'm really just beginner :)

+ I really don't understand this part:

Under Windows operating systems, you may have created a "Windows Application" project, especially if don't want the console to show up. In such case, to avoid replacing main by WinMain, you can link with SFML_Main static library and keep a standard and portable main entry point.

I've tried int WinMain but I was getting error too...
I'm using microsoft visual studio 2010 express, and please, don't tell me to link with SFML_Main static library cuz I have no idea what does it means :(

edit:

I have this: linker > input > add depen: sfml-system-s.lib;sfml-main.lib;%(AdditionalDependencies)

C/C++ > general > add includes > C:\Users\Mekkatorqu\Desktop\SFML-1.6\include;%(AdditionalIncludeDirectories)

linker > general > add libs > C:\Users\Mekkatorqu\Desktop\SFML-1.6\lib\vc2010;%(AdditionalLibraryDirectories)

and I'm still getting that first error in empty win32 application

I'm pretty sure your problem is that you haven't linked the SFML libraries, I don't know how to do that in Visual Studio though.

nvm,, I got it, I needed to include sfml-window-s.lib :P btw is there any way to include ALL libs automatically without writing them there?
