InstantCG

A port of QuickCG by Lode Vandevenne to SDL2

InstantCG aims to be as backwards compatible as possible with QuickCG. Ideally you should only need to change the include line and convert using namespace QuickCG to using namespace InstantCG.

Using InstantCG

Copy instantcg.h and instantcg.cpp into your project directory, make sure you are linking with SDL2, and compile.

To do this from the command line on mac or linux would look something like this:

clang++ *.cpp -lSDL2

There are a few ways you could install SDL2. On linux it should be availble from your package manager, on mac or windows you can grab the .framework or .lib/.dll files from the github releases page, altenatively on mac you can use homebrew brew install sdl2.

The example folder in this repo also bundles the SDL2 libs which you could also use to get started, although they are probably not up to date.

Building The Examples

Both SDL2 and premake have been bundled with the repo so you can quickly build the exmaples.

Windows from Git Bash

cd examples
./premake vs2019
start build/vs2019/InstantCG.sln

In the solution explorer, right click the example you want to run and select 'Set as Startup Project', then press F5 to build and run.

Mac from Terminal.app

cd examples
./premake xcode4
open build/xcode4/InstantCG.xcworkspace

Select the project by clicking the current project name in the top bar in Xcode, run by pressing the play button in the top left.
