[SDL] compile error under vc++ - unresolved external symbol

[Albert Ridolfi]

I found a tutorial that told me to add to the code:
#ifdef WIN32
#pragma comment(lib, "SDL.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "SDLmain.lib")
#endif

Now it's working. Thanks for the help

Hello Albert,
the better way to work in vs2005 with the SDL is:

1 - Make a empty project
2 - copy all the precompilated libraries under
    \Programmi\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\lib
3 - copy all the headers files under
    \Programmi\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\include\SDL
4 - copy all the dll under:
    C:\Windows\System32
5 - Set the project with the libraries that you will use:
    Right-click on the project -> Options -> Linker -> Input:
    SDLmain.lib SDL.lib etc.lib

Where you must insert SDLmain.lib SDL.lib, and the etc.lib are, for example,
SDL_image.lib, SDL_mixer.lib.
