Hi! Using Lasarus 1.4.4 I'm following the SDL tutorial at http://www.freepascal-meets-sdl.net/ and get problems very fast.
looking at http://www.freepascal-meets-sdl.net/chapter-5-drawing-primitives/ I have the code starting like this program Chapter5_SDL2; uses SDL2; var i : integer; sdlWindow1 : PSDL_Window; sdlRenderer : PSDL_Renderer; sdlRect1 : PSDL_Rect; sdlPoints1 : array[0..499] of PSDL_Point; begin //initilization of video subsystem if SDL_Init( SDL_INIT_VIDEO ) < 0 then HALT; sdlWindow1 := SDL_CreateWindow( 'Window1', 50, 50, 500, 500, SDL_WINDOW_SHOWN ); if sdlWindow1 = nil then HALT; writeln('1'); sdlRenderer := SDL_CreateRenderer( sdlWindow1, -1, 0 ); writeln('2'); if sdlRenderer = nil then HALT; and so on However it crashes with runtime error 217 on line sdlRenderer := SDL_CreateRenderer( sdlWindow1, -1, 0 ); I get '1' on the screen but not '2' C:\bnl\svn\trunk\pascal\sdl-stuff>chapter5_sdl2.exe 1 Runtime error 217 at $000007FEFD28ADAD $000007FEFD28ADAD $000007FEF9417F69 $0000000000002D6E if run from Lazarus, I get some assembler listing .....

Downloaded the latest 64 bit for win at sdl.org (2.0.4) searching throught the disk gives exactly 1 sdl2.dll C:\>dir /s sdl2.dll Directory of C:\bnl\bin 2016-01-02 11:59 1 230 336 SDL2.dll 1 File(s) 1 230 336 bytes Total Files Listed: 1 File(s) 1 230 336 bytes 0 Dir(s) 122 686 066 688 bytes free Anyone has some ideas what to do. Needless to say, google runtime error 217 gives no clear indication on why it is complaining. I had Lazarus 1.6 before, but downgraded because of bug in databse interface reagrding floats.
