I stuck with this Problem sind 2 Months now…
searched myself through Articles, Communities, Boards…etc, and i can´t find any successful Solution to this Problem.
I want to add SDL2 to a Cmake Project, using C++ in VSCode on Windows, but using Mingw64 from Msys2 (g++).
This is my current CMakeLists.txt:
CmakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)
project(TileGameStudio_Runtime LANGUAGES CXX)
set(CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR ON)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 20)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)
set(PROJ_SRC
${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/src
)
add_subdirectory(${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/SDL2)
include_directories(${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/SDL2/include)
file(GLOB PROJECT_SOURCES CONFIGURE_DEPENDS
${PROJ_SRC}/*.cpp
)
set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY "${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}\\Game")
set(EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH "${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}\\Game")
# add the executable
add_executable(TileGameStudio_Runtime
${PROJECT_SOURCES}
)
target_link_libraries(TileGameStudio_Runtime PRIVATE
SDL2-static
SDL2main
)
set_target_properties(
TileGameStudio_Runtime
PROPERTIES
OUTPUT_NAME "Game"
SUFFIX ".exe"
)
This is my current Project Structure (png image)
As you can see. i cloned the Repo from https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL as a subdirectory to my Project. And this, i added via cmake add_subdirectory.
My Main.cpp is simply this:
Main.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <string>
#include <SDL.h>
#ifdef main
# undef main
#endif /* main */
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
SDL_Window *win = NULL;
SDL_Renderer *renderer = NULL;
int posX = 100, posY = 100, width = 320, height = 240;
SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO);
win = SDL_CreateWindow("Hello World", posX, posY, width, height, 0);
renderer = SDL_CreateRenderer(win, -1, SDL_RENDERER_ACCELERATED);
//================================================ Draw a Text
//this opens a font style and sets a size
TTF_Font* Sans = TTF_OpenFont("Sans.ttf", 24);
// this is the color in rgb format,
// maxing out all would give you the color white,
// and it will be your text's color
SDL_Color White = {255, 255, 255};
// as TTF_RenderText_Solid could only be used on
// SDL_Surface then you have to create the surface first
SDL_Surface* surfaceMessage = TTF_RenderText_Solid(Sans, "put your text here", White);
SDL_Texture* Message = SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(renderer, surfaceMessage);
SDL_Rect Message_rect; //create a rect
Message_rect.x = 0; //controls the rect's x coordinate
Message_rect.y = 0; // controls the rect's y coordinte
Message_rect.w = 100; // controls the width of the rect
Message_rect.h = 100; // controls the height of the rect
SDL_RenderCopy(renderer, Message, NULL, &Message_rect);
//================================================ Draw a Text End
while (1) {
SDL_Event e;
if (SDL_PollEvent(&e)) {
if (e.type == SDL_QUIT) {
break;
}
}
SDL_RenderClear(renderer);
SDL_RenderPresent(renderer);
}
SDL_DestroyRenderer(renderer);
SDL_DestroyWindow(win);
SDL_Quit();
return 0;
}
Which should create a Window… and perhaps draw a text to it.
But, SDL.h can´t be found… so i can´t build the Stuff here…
Perhaps someone has the same Problem and can help me out here…
