Weird console issue

Wait, so I do this: I go to Project > Properties > Build targets and for "Type" I choose "GUI application". I then press "Rebuild". App displays window but seems to hang. Then, I go to properties again, and choose "Console application". I *only* press "Run". App works.

Thus, at least the linker executed as well the second time?

Edit: I noticed that the problem seems to be that when setting type to GUI application, "SDL_Flip(Surface)" does not return.

Ok, another test. If I make a shortcut on my KDE desktop to my app, it also runs fine without console. So now I really feel convinced this is a codeblocks issue.

Jenna:
You can try to create a test sdl app with the wizard, and look for difference(s) in the setup, because it works out of the box.

The setups are the same, but the example application from the wizard runs fine.

I guess I'll leave it like that. The problem exists only when running from within codeblocks so it does not really matter in the end user version...
