[CLOSED] Error when trying graphics.

So I got all the stuff I need to make graphics in C++, but whenever I run the code an error shows up. "Drawing operation was attempted when there was no current window." How do I fix this?

It would be hopefull if you posted the code. When you say you got all the stuff i need i assume that the error is because it wasnt set up properly.

~ swim ~ I did forget... Lol. Thanks. Ole113 Thank you for your help. Sorry for not posting code. It went right over my head. It was literally just circle(300, 300, 50) along with the header files and stuff. I did forget to call initwindow() so I've realized my mistake. THANK YOU BOTH!! 😁

Ian Moore If you want C++ graphics, I reccommend. SDL2 or SFML ( if you do not want to use an engine) Sdl2 - What I use : https://www.libsdl.org/ SFML https://www.sfml-dev.org/index.php

~ swim ~ I thought we were done with this but we're not. RIP. So now it's saying "warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*' [-Wwrite-strings]". Here's my code: #include<graphics.h> #include <conio.h> int main() { int gd = DETECT, gm; initgraph(&gd,&gm, "C:\\tc\\bgi"); circle(300,300,50); closegraph(); getch(); } I've tried all I can... It still doesnt work. The error seems to be inside the initgraph().
