SDL error LNK1120 & LNK2019 - c++

Question

I'm trying to compile a simple SDL example from a book and I'm getting these errors. I'm near positive everything is linked correctly, because I was able to get other SDL examples to compile fine. I'm using Visual Studio 2013.
This code was intended for use with SDL 2.0 and links to SDL.lib, while I'm using SDL 2.0.3 and linking to SDL2.lib. However, I don't see any reason why that affect anything here.
Game.cpp
#include "Game.h"
#include <iostream>
Game::Game()
{
}
bool Game::init(const char* title, int xpos, int ypos, int width,
int height, int flags)
{
// attempt to initialize SDL
if (SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING) == 0)
{
std::cout << "SDL init success\n";
// init the window
m_pWindow = SDL_CreateWindow(title, xpos, ypos,
width, height, flags);
if (m_pWindow != 0) // window init success
{
std::cout << "window creation success\n";
m_pRenderer = SDL_CreateRenderer(m_pWindow, -1, 0);
if (m_pRenderer != 0) // renderer init success
{
std::cout << "renderer creation success\n";
SDL_SetRenderDrawColor(m_pRenderer,
255, 255, 255, 255);
}
else
{
std::cout << "renderer init fail\n";
return false; // renderer init fail
}
}
else
{
std::cout << "window init fail\n";
return false; // window init fail
}
}
else
{
std::cout << "SDL init fail\n";
return false; // SDL init fail
}
std::cout << "init success\n";
m_bRunning = true; // everything inited successfully,start the main loop
return true;
}
void Game::render()
{
SDL_RenderClear(m_pRenderer); // clear the renderer to the draw color
SDL_RenderPresent(m_pRenderer); // draw to the screen
}
void Game::handleEvents()
{
SDL_Event event;
if (SDL_PollEvent(&event))
{
switch (event.type)
{
case SDL_QUIT:
m_bRunning = false;
break;
default:
break;
}
}
}
void Game::clean()
{
std::cout << "cleaning game\n";
SDL_DestroyWindow(m_pWindow);
SDL_DestroyRenderer(m_pRenderer);
SDL_Quit();
}
Game.h
#ifndef __Game__
#define __Game__
#include "SDL.h"
class Game
{
public:
Game();
~Game();
bool init(const char* title, int xpos, int ypos, int width, int
height, int flags);
void render();
void update();
void handleEvents();
void clean();
bool running() { return m_bRunning; }
private:
SDL_Window* m_pWindow;
SDL_Renderer* m_pRenderer;
bool m_bRunning;
};
#endif /* defined(__Game__) */
Main.cpp
#include "Game.h"
// our Game object
Game* g_game = 0;
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
g_game = new Game();
g_game->init("Chapter 1", 100, 100, 640, 480, 0);
while (g_game->running())
{
g_game->handleEvents();
g_game->update();
g_game->render();
}
g_game->clean();
return 0;
}
And the following are the errors/warnings I recieve:

Answer 1

You're calling Game::update() from your main(), however it seems that you didn't actually implement it.
As for the warning, refer to this question for more info. It's likely that you're trying to link with a version of SDL (or some other lib) that was built with a different C runtime.
