Help me using ginput library in C++ Visual Studio
Posted: Sat Jan 11, 2020 7:04 pm
Hi all 
Thx to the wiki (https://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=De ... on_Windows) I build gimx on my local machine. I was able to change functions mainly for debugging purposes to understand how gimx works. I could build and use gimx.exe successfully.
The next step for me is to use some of the gimx libraries (https://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=Gasync) in a simple c++ demo program. I included GIMX\shared and SDL\include as additional include paths and set preprocessor defintions for WIN32. My source code is just what is demonstrated in ginput_test.c file.
In the visual studio editor my source looks good. However when I try to build a release I get errors from the compiler:
For me it looks like visual studio tries to compile the gimx library as well. Why doesn't it take the gimx as a library and instead tries to compile it?
How can I build gimx so I can use it as a library for my own app?
My c++ code is avaiable here: https://pastebin.com/UFnCSs62
Please guide me
