Title: Why glfw needs sfml
Post by: smithon on September 05, 2012, 10:04:21 pm

In Windows, I have realized that my glfw-glew projects doesn't work without sfml. I use mingw. In other words, when I remove my c:\sfmlxxx directory, I get this: cannot find -sfml-system! I am confused, since I haven't at all used any aspect of sfml in my project!

Why are you asking this here? This has nothing to do with codeblocks and will likely get locked or removed.

The reason I am posting it here is that it is related to the project that I have created using codeblocks. Codeblocks has wizard to create opengl with glfw and in Windows, it works with mingw. Why this is not a right place?

If you really have no sfml related settings in the project, there must be some gobal compiler settings remaining.
Look into the settings for MinGW in "Settings -> Compiler", if there is anything related to it.

Thanks Jens, it was the case. I cleaned up global settings and build log now shows a clean compile.  :)
