Compiling framework consists to build :
- Third-party libraries (amalgamated to a single GPlay-deps static library)
- GPlay engine library (GPlay static library)
- Samples
- Tools
Cmake is necessary to build third-party libraries but by default it build the entire framework.
QtCreator can be used as alternative to build the engine, samples and tools. But you need to use cmake before, to build thirdparty libraries.
Some thirdparty libraries are registered as submodules, you need to install them before compiling.
git submodule init
git submodule update
Included in the project repository are the following notable folder and files:
| Folder/Files | Description |
|---|---|
| /thirdparty | External dependency libraries |
| /res | The resources data folder |
| /src | The gplay3d library sources |
| /samples | Game samples |
| /tools | Content authoring encoder and lua binding generator |
Cmake will create and populate the output directory, this directory is organized as follow:
| Folder | Description |
|---|---|
| /bin | The output directory for samples binaries |
| /include | The GPlayEngine include directory that contains engine headers to add to your project |
| /lib | Contains the GPlay and GPlay-deps libraries to link to your projects |
Listed below are the basic setup instructions for downloading and installing the supported platform and development environments for gameplay.
