C++/SFML Window creation fail - c++

Question

Well, I tried to do everything as shown in tutorial, but it just shows console and nothing more. Tried this clock program and it works just fine. I connected all libs, and copied all .dll files, so really don't know where I'm wrong. Please tell me what to do to show make it show window. I'm using VS2010, SFML 1.6 and here's my code.
#include <SFML\Window.hpp>
int main()
{
sf::Window App(sf::VideoMode(640, 480, 32), "wut");
while (App.IsOpened())
{
sf::Event Event;
while (App.GetEvent(Event))
{
// Window closed
if (Event.Type == sf::Event::Closed)
App.Close();
// Escape key pressed
if ((Event.Type == sf::Event::KeyPressed) && (Event.Key.Code == sf::Key::Escape))
App.Close();
};
App.Display();
}
};

Answer 1

Try this:
#include <SFML/Window.hpp>
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
int main()
{
// Create the main rendering window
sf::RenderWindow App(sf::VideoMode(800, 600, 32), "SFML Graphics");
// Start game loop
while (App.IsOpened())
{
// Process events
sf::Event Event;
while (App.GetEvent(Event))
{
// Close window : exit
if (Event.Type == sf::Event::Closed)
App.Close();
}
// Clear the screen (fill it with black color)
App.Clear();
// Display window contents on screen
App.Display();
}
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Do you link against sfml-main library? If not, try that, if that fails, try to do a WinMain instead of main() function. Also, make sure that Visual Studio has not set your project to a console program.

I have been using SFML a lot recently. Try these suggestions in order, keeping each previous change:
#include <SFML/System.hpp>
#include <SFML/Window.hpp>
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
It should be sf::RenderWindow, not sf::Window
It should be while (App.isOpen()) not IsOpened()
If it doesnt seem to have the function "isOpen" on your RenderWindow , you probably don't have SFML2, which I recommend getting immediately.
Did you rebuild the libraries for your computer, or did you just try and use the .dll's they provide? You may need to rebuild them using Cmake, and whatever your compiler is. I know I did.
Finally, I also recommend using the latest Code::Blocks as your IDE instead, but I guess only switch as a last resort.

Old question.. but here is my answer: When you sayed; "I'm using VS2010, SFML 1.6...", in the download page says that for sfml-1.6 in Windows, it is possible to use VScode 2005 and VScode 2009. Try to use a different version of Vscode (and link everything to test) and see if it works.
(For me your code looks fine for SFML-1.6, so i don't think that's the problem)
