Building using cmake and conan

This instruction is for Linux users. Windows user should do naturally same things. Instructions for Mac users can be found below.

You need to install Conan package manager to build the project.

Step 1. Clone.

git clone https://github.com/JorgenPo/blackengine.git 
cd blackengine

Step 2. Download Conan dependencies.

First, create building directory. You could create it outside sources if you want.

mkdir build
cd build

Second, we need to download project dependencies using conan:

conan install ..

If you created the build folder in different location, then you need to change ".." to your blackengine source directory

Step 3. Generate build files

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<installation directory> ..

Don't forget to change "installation directory" to directory where you want to install blackengine

Step 4. Make and make install

make -j2 install

After this step blackengine will be installed at .

Build using Xcode on MacOS

Step 1 - 2 same as on Linux and Windows (see above)

Step 3. Generate Xcode project

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<installation directory> -G Xcode..

If you get following error

No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be found
No CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER could be found.

try run this command

sudo xcode-select --reset

then repeat step

Step 4. Open project in Xcode

Now you can work with project like with any other Xcode project.

Examples

There is examples of using blackengine in /examples folder of installation directory. Look for it.

Why

This is a study project for learning game engine development
