Compiling SDL for Windows (CodeBlocks) [Need Help]

I am receiving the following errors when trying to compile.

I have added the bundled libraries for CodeBlocks found here: http://dev.narc.ro/cataclysm/cdda-win64-codeblocks.7z to my Cataclysm source folder.

It seems that the program is not recognizing the SDL libraries but I don’t know why.

Please help me, thank you!

I am experiencing the same issue.

I can’t quite recall, but you might have to link SDL to your toolchain in codeblocks.

It’s about the same effort required to set up a dualboot with linux for the sole purpose of cross compiling back to windows.

You probably have wrongly mixed 32 and 64 bit versions of libraries/compiler.
