Unable to add SDL_gfx library into Dev C++...

Hi,

I've been trying to add SDL_gfx library to Dev C++ project.

I add the SDL_gfx.lib file to the project
and call a SDL_gfx function in the project
but on building the source I get the following error message:

---

[Linker error] undefined reference to `_imp__rotozoomSurface'

(function rotozoomSurface is part of SDL_gfx)

I have been working on this for several days and am alittle frustrated.
If someone can help the please do!

Please help us by posting your Basic 3 - they are covered in the link titled
"Please Read Before Posting a Question"

In addition, where did you get your SDL package? Is it a dev-pack? Is
it build for GCC/MinGW? I suspect not, as the library you quote is named
something.lib, which is usually a tipoff that the library was compiled
by and for Microsoft compilers, which will probably not work with GCC.

You also do not add a library to your project, you link it. Some directions
on doing such activities can also be found in the "Please Read" thread
under the section on the compile log, including headers, and linking libraries.
