I've downloaded, built and added to the project the {fmt} 6.2.1 library on c++. I'm using Windows.
Problem is, the headers are recognized(Code:Blocks give me the auto-completion for them) but any function I try to use results in errors.
For example this code:
#include <iostream>
#include<fmt-6.1.2/include/fmt/core.h>
#include<fmt-6.1.2/include/fmt/format.h>
int main()
{
auto msg1 = fmt::format("The answer is {}", 42);
return 0;
}
produces this error

and the compiler points me to this section of core.h, in the second line
FMT_CONSTEXPR bool is_integral_type(type t) {
FMT_ASSERT(t != named_arg_type, "invalid argument type");
return t > none_type && t <= last_integer_type;
}
It is the first time for me to use a library so I could have mistaken something while adding it. The procedure I've followed is to go on project->build options->linker settings and there I added the .lib files.
Thank you.
