Issue building with Visual Studio 2015

[odensc]

I am using Visual Studio 2015 on Windows 8.1 32-bit, trying to build the DSFML libraries. I am getting a lot of errors like:

c:\users\ieuser\documents\dsfml-c\src\dsfml\network\http.cpp(114) : error C4716:
 'sfHttpResponse_getMajorVersion': must return a value
c:\users\ieuser\documents\dsfml-c\src\dsfml\network\http.cpp(121) : error C4716:
 'sfHttpResponse_getMinorVersion': must return a value

in various files in network, graphics, etc. The only libraries that build correctly are system and window. It seems those methods are missing a return. For some reason, the exact same source builds fine on Linux.

Try this repository. It's the one I'm currently pushing to.

It goes along with this branch of the binding.

Some names of libs produced are a little different, but it's mostly the same. Let me know if you need any help. Actual docs are being worked on. :P

[odensc]

That fixes up the return value errors, now I'm getting this error:

It doesn't seem like its linking freetype and jpeg correctly?

I found this. After replacing the binaries in extlibs/libs-msvc/x86 with the ones included in that zip file, it now builds. Yay! :+1:

Awesome. I will make a note of that. Glad you got it working!
