The errors read in this continuous format:



And it goes on doing that for every single function.

There are no reports of these functions being declared more than once, which I find to be very odd.

I'm not even sure if that particular variable (optimized _image), is the problem.

I know that, but if I change to an actual pointer (optimized_image), all my functions become invalid because of "multiple definitions" which they aren't.

"*optimized_image", this is the one giving me trouble.

Yeah, it doesn't make sense to me either, all I know is that a simple pointer operator on that variable (or any other for that matter), solves the multiple definition issue, but then there is the...

The preprocessor loads didn't really change much, and if I change the variable to a pointer it reports all the functions as multiple definitions. Neither of these things did much.

I'm using MinGW...

This is probably amateur-ish, but I've been going through the Lazy Foo Productions tutorials to learn how to use SDL, but since I'm such a stubborn programmer I decided to write my code in C rather...

I'm enjoying this argument, but we should move to a more appropriate thread:

I've been debating with a few people lately whether or not C can still be properly used in the modern programming world. I say that still is still useful and still is powerful (despite it only being...

Huh. Well what do you know, it worked, I actually tried it the way Salem suggested, but I forgot to exclude "lib" from the name, thanks for writing it out, now I see what was the issue.

say I put in the following compilation command when writing an SDL program:



I get a heap of error messages due to the libraries failing to be referenced. I try it again, this time manually...

All of those, but mostly curiousness, considering things such as Unix, Linux, lots of GNU programs, SDL and OpenGL are built from C, I'd gather it will get any job done, when done right.

yes, they are in the lib directory, but they aren't being recognized by the compiler for some reason.

But worth it from what I've seen.

Like I said, some people would argue that. Though I am just a deviant.

Extension or not, it doesn't work on my windows system, I know for fact that the rules are different, but I can't figure them out.

Well now that was a duh issue, the passing worked like a charm. Thanks for the help.

And for the guy asking about why I would want to learn C, I just like the simplicity of the language and it...

I wrote a simple calulator in C, trying to teach myself the language because I'm accustomed to C++, but the program crashes once user inputs the second number for calculation. I'm wondering if...

I've been trying to get SDL to work with my MinGW GCC compiler but when I try to link the libs from the command line, it searches through all the default search paths and misses the libraries that I...
