This covers how to use pntr.
Add these defines prior to including pntr.h to modify how it functions.
| Define | Description |
|---|---|
PNTR_IMPLEMENTATION |
Define this in one of your .c or .cpp files before including pntr.h |
PNTR_PIXELFORMAT_RGBA |
Use the RGBA format |
PNTR_PIXELFORMAT_ARGB |
Use the ARGB pixel format |
PNTR_ENABLE_DEFAULT_FONT |
Enables the default font |
PNTR_ENABLE_TTF |
Enables TTF font loading |
PNTR_DISABLE_ALPHABLEND |
Skips alpha blending when rendering images |
PNTR_ENABLE_MATH |
Enables use of C's standard math.h library, rather than using the built in math functions |
PNTR_LOAD_FILE |
Callback to use when asked to load a file in pntr_load_file(). By default, will use stdio.h. |
PNTR_SAVE_FILE |
Callback to use when asked to save a file in pntr_save_file(). By default, will use stdio.h. |
PNTR_LOAD_IMAGE_FROM_MEMORY |
Callback to use when loading an image from memory in pntr_load_image_from_memory(). By default, will use cute_png |
PNTR_SAVE_IMAGE_TO_MEMORY |
Callback to use when saving an image to memory in pntr_save_image_to_memory(). By default, will use cute_png |
PNTR_NO_CUTE_PNG_IMPLEMENTATION |
Skips defining CUTE_PNG_IMPLEMENTATION. Useful if you're using cute_png elsewhere. |
PNTR_NO_STB_TRUETYPE_IMPLEMENTATION |
Skips defining STB_TRUETYPE_IMPLEMENTATION. Useful if you're using cute_png elsewhere. |
PTNR_NO_STB_IMAGE_RESIZE_IMPLEMENTATION |
Skips defining STB_IMAGE_RESIZE_IMPLEMENTATION. Useful if you're using stb_image_resize elsewhere. |

To build the tests and examples, use CMake:
# Set up the build files.
cmake -B build
# Build the tests and examples.
cmake --build build
# Run the tests
ctest --test-dir build -V- cute_png.h by Randy Gaul
- font8x8 by Daniel Hepper provides the 8x8 monochrome font
- stb_image.h by Sean Barrett
- stb_truetype.h by Sean Barrett
- tester from zpl provides the unit testing framework
- raylib inspired some of the design patterns
