# SMELT
_SMELT -- The engine behind BLR3+._
_Now has its own repo._
## Building
Building the SDL/GLFW version of SMELT is now officially tested
on debian sid, debian jessie, Arch Linux and Gentoo Linux.
Theoretically both versions should work on Windows
with little modification :) (actually I have already produced
a Windows build successfully).
Building dependencies on debian-based systems:
>libfreetype6-dev libopenal-dev libsdl2-dev libpng-dev
>libjpeg62-turbo-dev libvorbis-dev libogg-dev
Additional building dependencies for the GLFW version on a debian-based system:
>libglfw3-dev libglew-dev
With the GLFW version, you are now allowed to choose the OpenGL version
to use (at compile time). Refer to `smelt_config.hpp` in the
implementation folder for details. The OpenGL 3.2 port is still
experimental and buggy. Use with caution.
Please also note that minor differences exist across different versions.
To build a module, just run make in the corresponding folder.
Please note that CxImage is also a module.
The example must be built last.
SMELT and applications that uses SMELT *REQUIRES* C++11 to build.
## Using SMELT:
Till now SMELT can only be built as a static library, which may make using SMELT
a bit clumsy...
0. Build SMELT. Running "make" should do the trick for you. Sorry, MSVC users!
1. Add the include folder in the source tree to the C++ header search folder of you project.
2. Add the libraries dependencies. Library dependencies are listed as following:
for the SDL2 version:
> -lsmeltext -lsmelt[-dumb] -lCxImage [-lvorbis -lvorbisfile -lopenal] -ljpeg -lpng -lSDL2
for the GLFW version:
> -lsmeltext -lsmelt[-dumb] -lCxImage [-lvorbis -lvorbisfile -lopenal] -ljpeg -lpng -lglfw -lGLEW -lGL
...and start coding!
## Customizing SMELT
Each implementation of SMELT has a file called smelt_config.hpp in its folder.
Modifying this file allows you to customize the functionality of SMELT. See the
comments in the file for details.
## TODOs:
* Example code.
* Better documentation.
* Sane way to build.
* Unify OpenGL versions.
* ~~D3D version.~~
* Better tools?
