Anybody using 1.6 and devcpp?

Post by Chet »

I have been using devcpp with v1.6 for a while now based on the project setup that was used in the examples.
Now I need to move things around a bit and whenever I try to move or have the compiler save the executable in a different dir I get the following windows error when I try to run it:

procedure entry point _ZN3irr5video16IdentityMaterialE could not be located in dynamic link library Irrlicht.dll

I have tried various obvious things like making sure there is a copy of the dll in the same dir as the executable. I assume there is a compiler setting somewhere I just can't find, any clues would be much appreciated.

No. No one is using devcpp anymore. It's dead since four years or so. Switch to an up to date IDE like Visual Studio 2008 Express or Code::Blocks.

However the error says that the program is loading the wrong dll. (I guess the vs one instead of the gcc one)
Software documentation is like sex. If it's good you want more. If it's bad it's better than nothing.
