linker error :'(

Hey everyone! spark is really great and I'm just implementing it into my game now... or at least attempting to haha. ANYWAYS.... It compiled smoothly on code blocks with the gcc compiler, but I have this one linker error. I'm using the irrlicht .a file and the core .a file that I compiled myself by downloading your lovely project. This is the linker error:

Code:

..\Spark\lib\mingw\static\libSPARK_IRR.a(SPK_IRR_ALL.o)(.text$_ZN3irr5scene10ISceneNode11getMaterialEj[irr::scene::ISceneNode::getMaterial(unsigned int)]+0x4):SPK_IRR_ALL.cpp||undefined reference to `_imp___ZN3irr5video16IdentityMaterialE'|

Thanks for your time!

Hi,

Are you using the static lib of Irrlicht ? If so, try to define _IRR_STATIC_LIB_ when compiling the irrlicht module of SPARK.

It's an irrlicht codeblocks project... so I guess it should've been, but I tried linking the static irrlicht file after the spark files and now it works fine... strange. Thanks

Glad it works !

Regarding the order of linking, it is the normal behaviour with gcc. Dependancies have to be linked always after.
