Irrlicht cannot start on VC++ 2008[SOLVED]
Posted: Fri Jul 31, 2009 1:26 am
A few problems that i am facing after updating to VC++ 2008
i made a new console game project to start a game, i set up the IDE VC++ 2008 to look for my library files and everything like the irrlicht manual says. but some ugly messages pop out saying "The application cannot start because irrlicht.dll was not found" or something else. i don't know if its a code error or IDE error.
when i compile nothing comes up, i tried fixing or changing my code but an error message box comes up saying link error 104:cannot find irrlicht .lib or sometimes irrlicht.dll,or sometimes compiles but nothing shows up. or a message saying that cout is not defined even though it was.Now yes i am not an expert on irrlicht but before this happened i was doing well tweaking my games.This is just a basic code that i tried. Does it mean that irrlicht is not compatible with VC++ 08

Code: Select all
#include <irrlicht.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace irr;
using namespace std;
using namespace core;
using namespace scene;
using namespace video;
using namespace io;
using namespace gui;
#ifdef _IRR_WINDOWS_
#pragma comment(lib, "Irrlicht.lib")
#pragma comment(linker, "/subsystem:windows /ENTRY:mainCRTStartup")
#endif
int main()
{ cout<<"hello world"<<endl;
return 0;
