I have searched the forums for my solution, but the problem has not yet been fixed. I am receiving a LNK 2019 error and I am including all the necessary libraries (sdl.lib and sdlmain.lib) in my project. It is set to use a multi-threaded DLL. The environment has been set up to use the SDL include directories as well. Here''s the error: error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _SDL_main referenced in function _main When I comment out SDL.h, the program compiles (although i can''t run sdl code obviously). Can anyone help? Thanks, Justin
