Segmentation fault in al_draw_filled_rectangle


I created a simple program that just draws a black square on a blue background to make sure everything works and is installed correctly:

// g++ -I "C:\msys64\mingw64\include\" test.cpp -o test.exe -g -lallegro -lallegro_primitives
#include <allegro5/allegro5.h>
#include <allegro5/allegro_primitives.h>

#include <iostream>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    al_init();
    
    ALLEGRO_DISPLAY* d = al_create_display(256, 256);
    
    if (d == NULL)
        std::cout << "Error in initializing display" << std::endl;
    
    al_clear_to_color(al_map_rgb(0, 0, 255));
    al_draw_filled_rectangle(64, 64, 192, 192, al_map_rgb(0, 0, 0));
    al_flip_display();
    
    al_rest(30);
    
    al_destroy_display(d);
    al_uninstall_system();
    return 0;
}

...but when I try to run it with gdb .\test.exe it returns this error:

Thread 1 received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Here's the full stack trace:

I'm guessing there's some sort of step I missed in the setup process of mingw, but I don't know how to fix it. Anyone have any answers?


Solution

  • On my Linux system, your program works fine, but for Windows you might need to call (as said in comment):

    al_init_primitives_addon();
    

    before you can use a function such as al_draw_filled_rectangle.
