An application that wants to run in the JUCE framework needs to declare a subclass of JUCEApplication and implement its various pure virtual methods. It then needs to use the START_JUCE_APPLICATION macro somewhere in a cpp file to declare an instance of this class and generate a suitable platform-specific main() function. e.g. @code class MyJUCEApp : public JUCEApplication { // NEVER put objects inside a JUCEApplication class - only use pointers to // objects, which you must create in the initialise() method. MyApplicationWindow* myMainWindow; public: MyJUCEApp() : myMainWindow (0) { // never create any Juce objects in the constructor - do all your initialisation // in the initialise() method. } ~MyJUCEApp() { // all your shutdown code must have already been done in the shutdown() method - // nothing should happen in this destructor. } void initialise (const String& commandLine) { myMainWindow = new MyApplicationWindow(); myMainWindow->setBounds (100, 100, 400, 500); myMainWindow->setVisible (true); } void shutdown() { delete myMainWindow; } const String getApplicationName() { return T("Super JUCE-o-matic"); } const String getApplicationVersion() { return T("1.0"); } }; // this creates wrapper code to actually launch the app properly.

Likewise don't put ANY code in the constructor that could call Juce functions.
