Compiling for windows/code::blocks, but crashing at startup about ofxbullet

Oh, and debugging output isn't very helpful (to me?) too

Hmm. I can't make much sense of that either. So the SimpleExample compiles without any ofxBullet calls in there?

[danieldormann]

yep. I'm almost sure now, that there's some trouble with linking to the bulletlib.a, for the simple matter, that it's showing the same behaviour when removing it from the linker. Is there some way I could test for that?

[NickHardeman]

What ofxBullet code causes it to crash? What code do you have in there?
(Sorry not too familiar with windows)

[danieldormann]

As far as I tested: any. world.setup() or just initializing a new ofxBulletSphere. I think this might be a more general problem than specific for your addon :/

[danieldormann]

Tried again with of080 and most recent version of ofxBullet, but still the same. Pretty sure now it's not a bug in your addon. Sorry for bothering.

[danieldormann]

Ok, I finally got it working. It has to be something odd with linking the library. Instead of that I included the bullet sources and compiled them directly in my project. Might not be the smoothest solution, but it works.

[NickHardeman]

Glad you got it working. Were you able to compile a static lib for code::blocks? Could you send a PR with the working code::blocks project? It would be a great addition to the addon.

Thanks
Nick

Sorry for the late response. I made a pull request for the Example. If you need anything tested on C::B/Windows feel free to always contact me

[danieldormann]

Uh sorry, I just noticed I misread. No I didn't try linking it again. I just compiled it with the source. Of course this makes a big overhead for a hack.
