I am attempting to make a Pong game using SDL. I'm trying to render text on the screen, but segfaults prevent the code from running. I ran it in gdb, and found that the segfaults occur because SDL_QueryTexture doesn't give the ints passed into it any values. I put a statement to print SDL_GetError() after SDL_QueryTexture, and it says: "Failed loading SHCORE.DLL: The specified module could not be found." This wasn't happening after I made some adjustments to my code, so I believe the code is causing this problem. The relevant code is below:
In case the rest of the code has a part in this, the entire .cpp file is attached.
void loadText(string s) {
SDL_Color color = {255,255,255};
SDL_Surface* textsurface = TTF_RenderText_Solid(font, s.c_str(), color);
if(textsurface == NULL) {
cout << "Could not rendertext onto surface" << endl;
}
texture = SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(r,textsurface);
if(texture == NULL) {
cout << "Could not make texture" << SDL_GetError() << endl;
}
SDL_QueryTexture(texture, NULL, NULL, w, h);
cout << SDL_GetError() << endl;
SDL_FreeSurface(textsurface);
textsurface = NULL;
//cout << "Texture query error" << SDL_GetError() << endl;
}
void textRender(int x, int y) {
destinationrect = {x,y,*w,*h};
if (SDL_RenderCopy(r,texture,NULL,&destinationrect) < 0) {
cout << "Rendercopy error" << SDL_GetError() << endl;
}
}
