I recently restarted a project I put on hold for about a year and I'm having problems compiling part of the code that uses the FreeType2 library posted here. The code compiled flawlessly with a previous version of the SDK (about a year old...), but I get a linking error with a recent update (26/06/09) of the SDK. Unfortunately I did not keep a copy of the older SDK.

I recompiled the FreeType2 library against the newer SDK without any problems, but the problem still persists. It seems that using the FT_Init_FreeType( ... ) function causes the error that I can't seem to fix.

For simplicity, this code reproduces the same error. FT_New_Face( ... ) is included to show that the rest of the program compiles "fine" but the FT_Init_FreeType( ... ) causes an error, and is hopefully the only one that does so. Could anyone with the FreeType2 library test this out for me and see if it compiles?

Code: Select all

#include <ft2build.h>
#include FT_FREETYPE_H

int main&#40; int argc, char **argv &#41;
&#123;
	FT_Library ft2Library;
	FT_Face ft2Face;

	// Comment this and voila... no compile-time error &#58;-$
	FT_Init_FreeType&#40; &ft2Library &#41;;

	// Source parameter is left NULL intentionally.
	FT_New_Face&#40; ft2Library, NULL, 0, &ft2Face &#41;;

	return 0;
&#125;

I suggest to use ps2sdk-ports/freetype from SVN.

Perfect! The code snippet compiled! I can't believe I did not look through the SVN. Thanks a lot Mega Man! Now let's hope everything else works fine :-)
