The errors:
C:\VulkanSDK\1.0.17.0\Bin/vulkan-1.lib: error adding symbols: File in wrong format
or
C:\VulkanSDK\1.0.17.0\Bin32/vulkan-1.lib: error adding symbols: File in wrong format
I using Eclipse Version: Neon Release (4.6.0) Build id: 20160613-1800
Compilers:
Cygwin 2.5.2(0.297/5/3)
MinGW-w64 gcc (x86_64-posix-seh, Built by MinGW-W64 project) 6.1.0
flags: -m64 or -m32
Can someone point me what I am doing wrong, or send me a example workspace with correct setup?
It is my first cross-platform project, so I probably doing something wrong.
I chose Eclipse from simple reason, it is almost same on Windows and Linux.
1) Update your SDK (latest ATMOW is 17)
2) That vulkan-1.lib in $VULKAN_SDK/Bin is MSVC++ library and there's no guarantee, it will work in gcc (doesn't for me - Cygwin is supposed to have some support, but it simply doesn't work for me).
Try to link directly to the vulkan-1.dll ( that is supply -L$WINDIR/System32 (x64 on x64 os) or -L$WINDIR/SysWOW64 (32 on 64) instead of the SDK paths ).
Otherwise you will need to build The Loader from source, which will be pain for Cygwin/MinGW (don't think there is official support yet). Or, you know, abandon Eclipse and join us on the dark side.
