Irrlicht without the console

[Guest]

can we use the engine without the console(in windows) popping out?

on Dev-cpp compile as a windows application instead of a console application. VC++ has a similar option, I forget exactly what it is.

for vc++ 6 its a win32 application as opposed to console application but you have to run int main() like this:

Code: Select all

INT WINAPI WinMain( HINSTANCE hInst, HINSTANCE, LPSTR strCmdLine, INT )
{

take a look at the source for guice it'll show you a working example and guice is designed to compile fresh out of the rar.

In MSVC you have to use WinMain instead of main like Midnight said PLUS you need to set the SUBSYSTEM to WINDOWS instead of CONSOLE in the project settings (Linker/System).
