Linker Errors from SDL2 in my project

Question

I used CMake and Code::Blocks to build SDL2 from source, and attempted to link my own project source to the following static libraries:

libSDL2.a
libSDL2main.a
O         


        

Answer 1

If you link with static SDL, you need to manually pull all libraries it uses:

imagehlp dinput8 dxguid dxerr8 user32 gdi32 winmm imm32 ole32
oleaut32 shell32 version uuid

Or just use dynamic SDL2.
