Window Border in Windows

[Noxivs]

Hi,
It's me again. I'm glad that sfml works properly on windows seven but the border window of the example is like a windows 98 (aero theme not loaded ?). We're in 2014, and i hope you know how i can forget this old border...

Regards.

i found this : https://github.com/LaurentGomila/CSFML/blob/master/src/SFML/Main/SFML_Main.cpp

is it taken into account by the ffi ?

Hi,

Sorry to not answer the first time, i've completely forgotten.

As i have no windows to test, i'm not sure that i can help a lot. However i don't think that bind SFML_Main in the binding is needed, it's just used to abstracted the WinMain and don't have to use some defines depending of the platform when you make a program with SFML.

I think this can help rust-lang/rust#8510 (comment), this comment seems say that you need to pass some arguments to rustc when you build a gui application on Windows.
As --link-args doesn't exist anymore, I think the arguments should be: rustc main.rs -C link-args="-Wl,--subsystem,windows".

I hope this can help. Tell me if it solve your problem.

I already tried, it doesn't work.
One thing is weird, when i start the app from .exe, i have this classic visual style.

But if i start from the msys console it's work.

i can use rsfml but if we can fix it,it would be nice :)

As said before i really don't know windows environnement.

But it seems that @klutzy is quite an expert with Rust and Window stuff. So maybe I can try to contact him with IRC, or github, he may have an idea about this issue.

Moreover i agree, it would be nice to fix this problem.

Reproduced on win7; seems like rust-lang/rust#13259.
unsafe { ::std::rt::stack::record_sp_limit(0); } fixes the phenomenon, but the workaround may cause problems if stack overflows.

Indeed, it works

With rust-lang/rust#13259 fixed, this should be fixed too.
Closing, feel free to reopen if this issue still persists.
