I'm starting out on SDL using CodeBlocks IDE. I got an error undefined reference to 'SDL_main'. I researched and found out that you need to have the parameters
int argc, char* args[]
in the main(). I added those and the code compiled and worked. My question is, how important are the parameters for the linker to be able to work?
Main parameters have to be there because SDL defines main internally as ......SDL_main(int argc, char *argv[])... depending on the system and does some initialization.
Just include main parameters, it doesn't matter if you're not using them.
