03 Building SFML

Building SFML

(Simple and Fast Multimedia Library)

This is a rather new library for multimedia tasks. Probably cannot rival FFmpeg and OpenCV yet, but the documentation is very clear and easy for newbies.

To build, just run ./bld_sfml[32|64][d].sh

Static libs (in ./lib) and examples (in ./examples) will be built. For headers, they are inside the source folder <UserHome>/sfml/include.

Unlike OpenCV, SFML will not generate 7-zip archive by default.
