VC 6.0 --> Irrlicht.dll

Post by Luxar »

Hello,

i´m a newcomer with VC and irrlicht. My problem is:

i make a new project with the main.cpp from the original hello-project.
the (most) adjusts in VC are correct (i think so) and the compiling is correct.

But if i want start the programm, it says to me: could not find irrlicht.dll

Okay, i can put these dll into the project-folder, but the original hello-program does not have it too into the folder. So i think, there is a forgotten thing inside my VC 6 -project.

please can you helpe me where i can say to VC6: Look in that folder to find irrlicht.dll?

Thank you

You have to copy Irrlicht.dll from irrlicht-1.x.x\bin\Win32-VisualStudio\ to your project path.

Hello ucoskun,
thank you for your replay.

Exactly this is my problem: i don´t want so ;-) I don´t want to copy the irllicht.dll into my own project folder.
And when i look into then folder of the example "01.HelloWorld" there is no irrlicht.dll inside.

Thanks anyway ucoskun

Hello ucoskun,

of course, you are right !!!
The trick is, that the examples taken the exe-files into the bin-folder of irrlicht. And THERE is the irrlicht.dll inside.

Okay, thank you. You bring me to the right way.
