hi,
in visual studio 2015 when i import the libraries (the libraries which are available on the sdl's website), when i import sdl2main.lib, SDL_main() gets exported which shouldn't (my game is an executable, not a dll).
as a result, a .lib and .exp file is made beside the executable.
i think SDL_Main() is declared as DLLEXPORT
although i declare my SDL_main as follows:
int SDL_main(int argc, char** argv)
but, it is exported
note that i've tested this on vs2015 with windows 10 64 bit (the application is compiled for 32 bit with SSE support)
thanks
