Build instructions

Clone this repo with submodules:

$ git clone https://github.com/quyykk/plugin-editor --recursive

This guide assumes you have at least CMake 3.21.

Install the following, depending on your OS:

Windows

If you're planning on using Visual Studio, make sure to install the [clang/LLVM components](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/clang-support-msbuild) and the CMake component as well.

If you want to use MinGW (select the MSVCRT runtime; get it from here), I'd recommend using Visual Studio Code as IDE, because it provides pretty good CMake integration and MinGW support (including debugging).

MacOS

Install [Homebrew](https://brew.sh). Once it is installed, use it to install the tools you will need:

$ brew install cmake ninja pkg-config nasm

Debian distros

``` g++ cmake ninja-build pkg-config libgl1-mesa-dev libxmu-dev libxi-dev libglu1-mesa-dev tar zip unzip curl ```

Fedora distros

``` gcc-c++ cmake ninja-build mesa-libGL-devel autoconf libtool libXext-devel mesa-libGLU-devel ```

A lot of IDEs have built-in CMake integration (VS, VSCode, CLion, ...). For those, you can simply open the folder in the IDE and build.

There are a couple of presets to choose from before you build. Select the appropriate one. For example, if you want to build with MinGW select the mingw preset. (You can execute cmake --preset help to get a list of presets that are available).

If you want to build from the command line:

$ cmake --preset <preset>
$ cmake --build --preset <preset>-debug

where <preset> is your chosen preset. You can also specify release instead of debug to get a release build. The built files are located in the build/ folder.
