## Using GLFW
|
|
|
|
|
|
-There are two aspects to using GLFW:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- - Using the GLFW API
|
|
|
- - Compiling and linking programs using the GLFW library
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The first point is covered in the WIP
|
|
|
-[reference manual](http://www.glfw.org/TEMP/3.0/).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-### Include the GLFW header file
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-In the files of your program where you use OpenGL or GLFW, you should include
|
|
|
-the GLFW 3 header file, i.e.:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- #include <GLFW/glfw3.h>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This defines all the constants, types and function prototypes of the GLFW API.
|
|
|
-It also includes the chosen client API header files (by default OpenGL), and
|
|
|
-defines all the constants and types necessary for those headers to work on that
|
|
|
-platform.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-For example, under Windows you are normally required to include `windows.h`
|
|
|
-before including `GL/gl.h`. This would make your source file tied to Windows
|
|
|
-and pollute your code's namespace with the whole Win32 API.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Instead, the GLFW header takes care of this for you, not by including
|
|
|
-`windows.h`, but rather by itself duplicating only the necessary parts of it.
|
|
|
-It does this only where needed, so if `windows.h` *is* included, the GLFW header
|
|
|
-does not try to redefine those symbols.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-In other words:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- - Do *not* include the OpenGL headers yourself, as GLFW does this for you
|
|
|
- - Do *not* include `windows.h` or other platform-specific headers unless you
|
|
|
- plan on using those APIs directly
|
|
|
- - If you *do* need to include such headers, do it *before* including
|
|
|
- the GLFW one and it will detect this
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-If you are using an OpenGL extension loading library such as
|
|
|
-[GLEW](http://glew.sourceforge.net/), the GLEW header should also be included
|
|
|
-*before* the GLFW one. The GLEW header defines macros that disable any OpenGL
|
|
|
-header that the GLFW header includes and GLEW will work as expected.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-#### GLFW header option macros
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-These macros may be defined before the inclusion of the GLFW header.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-`GLFW_INCLUDE_GLCOREARB` makes the header include the modern `GL/glcorearb.h`
|
|
|
-header (`OpenGL/gl3.h` on Mac OS X) instead of the regular OpenGL header.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-`GLFW_INCLUDE_ES1` makes the header include the OpenGL ES 1.x `GLES/gl.h` header
|
|
|
-instead of the regular OpenGL header.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-`GLFW_INCLUDE_ES2` makes the header include the OpenGL ES 2.0 `GLES2/gl2.h`
|
|
|
-header instead of the regular OpenGL header.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-`GLFW_INCLUDE_ES3` makes the header include the OpenGL ES 3.0 `GLES3/gl3.h`
|
|
|
-header instead of the regular OpenGL header.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-`GLFW_INCLUDE_NONE` makes the header not include any client API header.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-`GLFW_INCLUDE_GLU` makes the header include the GLU header. This only makes
|
|
|
-sense if you are using OpenGL.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-`GLFW_DLL` is necessary when using the GLFW DLL on Windows.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-### Link with the right libraries
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-#### Using GLFW from CMake
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The `GLFW_LIBRARIES` cache variable contains all link-time dependencies of GLFW
|
|
|
-as it is currently configured, so to link against GLFW simply do:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- target_link_libraries(myapp glfw ${GLFW_LIBRARIES})
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Note that this does not include GLU, as GLFW does not use it. If your
|
|
|
-application needs GLU, you can add it to the list of dependencies with the
|
|
|
-`OPENGL_glu_LIBRARY` cache variable.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-#### Windows static library
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The static version of the GLFW library is named `glfw3`. When using this
|
|
|
-version, it is also necessary to link with some libraries that GLFW uses.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-When linking a program under Windows that uses the static version of GLFW, you
|
|
|
-must link with `opengl32`. If you are using GLU, you must also link with
|
|
|
-`glu32`.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-#### Windows DLL
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The link library for the GLFW DLL is named `glfw3dll`. When compiling a program
|
|
|
-that uses the DLL version of GLFW, you need to define the `GLFW_DLL` macro
|
|
|
-*before* any inclusion of the GLFW header. This can be done either with
|
|
|
-a compiler switch or by defining it in your source code.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-A program using the GLFW DLL does not need to link against any of its
|
|
|
-dependencies, but you still have to link against `opengl32` if your program uses
|
|
|
-OpenGL and `glu32` if it uses GLU.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-#### Unix library
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-GLFW supports [pkg-config](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config/),
|
|
|
-and `glfw3.pc` file is generated when the library is built and installed along
|
|
|
-with it. You can use it without installation using the `PKG_CONFIG_PATH`
|
|
|
-environment variable. See the documentation for pkg-config for more details.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-A typical compile and link command-line when using the static may look like this:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- cc `pkg-config --cflags glfw3` -o myprog myprog.c `pkg-config --static --libs glfw3`
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-If you are using the shared library, simply omit the `--static` flag.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-If you are using GLU, you should also add `-lGLU` to your link flags.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-#### Mac OS X static library
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-GLFW on Mac OS X uses the Cocoa, OpenGL and IOKit frameworks.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-If you are using Xcode, you can simply add the GLFW library and these frameworks
|
|
|
-as dependencies.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-If you are building from the
|
|
|
-command-line, it is recommended that you use pkg-config
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-GLFW supports [pkg-config](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config/),
|
|
|
-and `glfw3.pc` file is generated when the library is built and installed along
|
|
|
-with it. You can use it without installation using the `PKG_CONFIG_PATH`
|
|
|
-environment variable. See the documentation for pkg-config for more details.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-You can find pkg-config in most package systems such as
|
|
|
-[Fink](http://www.finkproject.org/) and [MacPorts](http://www.macports.org/), so
|
|
|
-if you have one of them installed, simply install pkg-config. Once you have
|
|
|
-pkg-config available, the command-line for compiling and linking your
|
|
|
-program is:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- cc `pkg-config --cflags glfw3` -o myprog myprog.c `pkg-config --static --libs glfw3`
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-If you do not wish to use pkg-config, you need to add the required frameworks
|
|
|
-and libraries to your command-line using the `-l` and `-framework` switches,
|
|
|
-i.e.:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- cc -o myprog myprog.c -lglfw -framework Cocoa -framework OpenGL -framework IOKit
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Note that you do not add the `.framework` extension to a framework when adding
|
|
|
-it from the command-line.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-The OpenGL framework contains both the OpenGL and GLU APIs, so there is no need
|
|
|
-to add additional libraries or frameworks when using GLU. Also note that even
|
|
|
-though your machine may have `libGL`-style OpenGL libraries, they are for use
|
|
|
-with the X Window System and will *not* work with the Mac OS X native version of
|
|
|
-GLFW.
