Allegro C++ Code::Blocks error.

Posted 08 February 2013 - 01:59 PM

Hello, I'm new here.
I'm trying to develop my version of Snake Game in C++ (with Allegro)
and I was using DevC++ in Windows 7. However, now, I'm
using Code::Blocks, with MINGW compiler.
I installed manually Allegro 4.22, but when I try to build
the program, there is an ERROR:

ld.exe||cannot find -lalfont|

I would like to know if someone knows where I can
download this file and where I should put it.

Rodrigo

Thank you for reply, but

I know that it is a link error,
but I could not find where I can
download...

Another thing, I created a Console
Project with Code::Blocks and I en-
countered the same link error.

Well,

ALFont is broken apparently and should be replaced according to the instructions here

http://opensnc.sourceforge.net/alfont/

Your Welcome...

However simply googling libalfont.a would have provided you with the solution.
