I am having difficulty understanding how to properly link prebuilt libraries during the linker process. I am trying to link several SFML libraries in order to build and execute a simple example taken from SFML’s tutorial page:
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
int main() {
sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(200, 200), "SFML works!");
sf::CircleShape shape(100.0f);
shape.setFillColor(sf::Color::Green);
while (window.isOpen()) {
sf::Event event;
while (window.pollEvent(event)) {
if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed) {
window.close();
}
}
window.clear();
window.draw(shape);
window.display();
}
return 0;
}
I have constructed my build.gradle file accordingly:
apply plugin: 'cpp'
model {
repositories {
libs(PrebuiltLibraries) {
sfml {
def libDir = '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/'
headers.srcDir '/usr/include'
binaries.withType(SharedLibraryBinary) {
sharedLibraryFile = file(libDir + 'libsfml-graphics.so')
}
binaries.withType(SharedLibraryBinary) {
sharedLibraryFile = file(libDir + 'libsfml-window.so')
}
binaries.withType(SharedLibraryBinary) {
sharedLibraryFile = file(libDir + 'libsfml-system.so')
}
}
}
}
}
model {
components {
helloSFML(NativeExecutableSpec) {
binaries.all {
cppCompiler.args '-std=c++14', '-Wall'
}
sources {
cpp {
source {
srcDir "src"
include "**/*.cpp"
}
exportedHeaders {
srcDir "include"
}
lib library: "sfml"
}
}
}
}
}
task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
gradleVersion = '2.11'
}
When linking, I get the following error:

:linkHelloSFMLExecutable FAILED
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
I’ve double-checked that path for the headers and dynamic libraries directory (/usr/include and /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu, respectively), and those appear to be correct. The only other thing I can think of is the withType method is overwriting the value of sharedLibraryFile (not sure which scope this is declared in) and so only one dynamic library file is getting set.
Linking via the command line would be done like so: g++ main.o -o sfml-app -lsfml-graphics -lsfml-window -lsfml-system
But I am not sure how to translate this into gradle/groovy
