Build Status

Helium Core

Helium Core aspires to be a fully-featured C++ platform abstraction and standard library:

  • Permissively licensed (BSD-style)
  • Designed to scale to desktop, console, and mobile applications
  • Implement patterns like Reflection, IPC, and RPC that help build sophisticated, modern applications

Building

Helium is built using premake5. Premake interprets lua script and generates platform-specific IDE project files.

Prerequisites

Windows

OSX

XCode Command Line Tools (install from within XCode preferences):

xcode-select --install

Prerequisites can be installed via:

sudo Dependencies/install-packages-macos.sh

Linux

GCC 6

Prerequisites can be installed via:

sudo Dependencies/install-packages-linux.sh

Compile

First, grab our source tree from git and ensure that you fetch all the submodules by doing:

git submodule update --init --recursive

Next, generate the project files using premake. An appropriate build of premake is includedin the repository.

On Windows, generate Visual Studio 201x projects (replace 2015 with your desired version):

cd Dependencies
..\premake vs2015
start Build\Dependencies.sln

In Visual Studio to go Build > Batch Build > Click Select All then Build

cd ..
premake vs2015
start Build\Helium.sln

On OSX and Linux, use premake to generate makefiles (Xcode support inside premake is on hold as of late):

cd Dependencies
../premake.sh gmake
make -C Build -j8

cd ..
./premake.sh gmake
make -C Build -j8
