Build system

[karimnaaji]

Build-system with the corresponding Android/iOS/OS X toolchains cmake files, mainly architecture changes with new CMake build files.

Architecture changes

• CMake : The project now uses CMake, inside the build/ folder there are the toolchain and utilities cmake files. The first called and used CMake file is in the root /CMakeLists.txt and then runs the different platform-dependent cmake files, which then run the CMakeFiles of the dependent libraries if needed (like Core/GLFW/JSon/GLM). Added two toolchains file, one for android grabbed from here, and one for iOS grabbed from here; these files define all the pre-required variables in order to use CMake for the corresponding platform.
• Core : is now used as a static library, and has its own CMakeLists.txt.
• Json : is now used as a static library as a dependency of the Core static library.
• GLFW : is now used a a git submodule.
• Changed somehow the architecture of the project : iOS/OS X platforms has now an src/ folder where to put the sources, an include/ folder for dependency headers and a lib/ folder to put libraries if needed.
• Removed old Makefile
• Further improvements/work :
  • Use CMake to build the UnitTests
  • It could be a good idea to modify a bit the CMake toolchain for Core in order to be able to generate an executable for it; for test purposes.
  • Check which files are still needed inside the android/ folder considering the new toolchain for this platform
  • GLM : could also be used as a submodule from here
  • Curl : use the same headers/static fat library for both OS X and iOS

Source code changes

• Fixed some missing inclusions
• Fixed some compiler/standard library issues to fit for g++/clang++ at the same time
• Curl : used headers from this project

Hey @karimnaaji, is there a reason for using c++0x and not c++11?

c++11 was formally named c++0x.

The only reason is I used to use this flag, we should definitely update it to c++11.
