After installing Code::Blocks 12.11 (with MinGW 4.7.1 in distributive) on Windows 7 I try to compile simple Allegro 5 example. The only (official?) tutorial (a bit old) about it:
http://wiki.allegro.cc/index.php?title=Allegro_5_Tutorial
http://wiki.allegro.cc/index.php?title=Windows_Vista,_Code::Blocks_10.05_and_Allegro_5
Question 1:
I've found allegro-5.0.8-mingw-4.5.0.7z. Is there a version for MinGW 4.7.1?
Question 2:
Error:
mingw32-g++.exe: error: unrecognized command line option '-static-libstdc++'
Question 3:
If I remove linking option -static-libstdc++, another error occurs:
c:/program files (x86)/codeblocks/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.1/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lgcc_eh
Question 4:
Is liballegro-5.0.8-monolith-static-mt.a a single replacement for all allegro .a files? Does it contain extern mingw .a dependencies, too? "Gameplay" of finding all these 30 .a files and configuring the right order is something horrible. It reminds anti-pattern http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_coupling :)
Thanks for your answers.
