PLIB for Windoze.
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Let me first say that I (Steve Baker) don't own a copy
|
||
|
|
of Windoze - so I have little or no ability to help
|
||
|
|
Windoze owners with PLIB problems. It's especially
|
||
|
|
important therefore that you direct problems and
|
||
|
|
queries to the PLIB mailing lists. Subscription
|
||
|
|
information is on the PLIB homepage:
|
||
|
|
|
||

CygWin:
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
The simplest way to build PLIB for Windoze is to
|
||
|
|
use the CygWin compiler and toolset. Since that
|
||
|
|
environment is pretty close to UNIX/Linux, the
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
./configure
|
||
|
|
make
|
||
|
|
make install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
...mechanism works perfectly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
MingW32:
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
A couple of people have asked about doing a MingW32 port - but
|
||
|
|
as far as I can tell, the "configure/make/make install" approach
|
||
|
|
*should* work.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Microsoft Visual C++:
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
All you need to do is open the workspace "plib.dsw" in MSVC++,
|
||
|
|
select the "plib" project (using Set Active Project in the Project
|
||
|
|
menu), and build it (using "Rebuild All" in the Build menu).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the examples folder, open the workspace "plib_examples.dsw".
|
||
|
|
Each example has a seperate project in the workspace. Select
|
||
|
|
the one you want and build it. Then you should be able to hit
|
||
|
|
the Go icon on the toolbar and try it out.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For your own application, please note that the plib workspace
|
||
|
|
leaves all the necessary includes (*.h) and libraries (*.lib)
|
||
|
|
in the plib root directory (same as workspace). The debug
|
||
|
|
libraries are given a '_d' suffix. Where ever you put those
|
||
|
|
files, make sure #include <plib/ul.h> works so your code is
|
||
|
|
more portable.
