Hi guys. I’m trying to use FMOD here but I’m having a crashing problem… I’m using gcc so the code is written in C-like way. The code compiles but when it runs, crash! I’m linking the fmod64.lib and fmod64\_vc.lib and have the dll’s on the .exe file paste. Someone have any ideas? Thanks. The code: ` #include “FMOD/inc/fmod.h” #include “iostream” using namespace std; int main() { FMOD_SYSTEM* system; FMOD_System_Create(&system);` ``` cin.get(); return 0; ``` } ---

It should be just a matter of telling GCC “-lfmod64” which links against the 64bit DLL. > [@linking with MinGW g++ 64bit on win7](https://qa.fmod.com/t/linking-with-mingw-g-64bit-on-win7/11998): > > Hi, i read a lot postings regarding linking issues with mingw and also a lot of workarounds. But the official statement is, that i should be able to use fmod also in mingw. I am using fmodstudioapi10607win-installer What have i done to test this so far? I copied the play\_stream.cpp, common.h and common\_platform.h into a testfolder changed the function name to int main(int argc, char \*\*argv) copied all .h and .hpp from the inc-folder to c:\fmod\inc copied fmod64.dll from the l… ---

Hi. I know everybody here is just using Unity, but I really need to do it with DevC++ and I’m having problems when the program runs (although it compiles fine) The steps I did till now: 1 - included the “fmod.h” file 2 - included the “fmod64\_vc” lib 3 - put the “fmod64.dll” file in the same directory of the program 4 - code: FMOD\_SYSTEM\* system; // I’m using c++ compatible functions (otherwise it doesn’t runs) 5 - code: FMOD\_System\_Create(&system); //here makes it crash when run Can someone give me some tip? My PC config: windows 10, intel, x64 Thanks!
