How to build freeglut with CMake on Windows (MS Visual Studio)
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
1. Download CMake (http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html).
|
||
|
|
Get one of the releases from the binary distribution section.
|
||
|
|
2. Run the CMake installer, install wherever you like.
|
||
|
|
3. Launch CMake via Start > Program Files > CMake 2.8 > CMake (GUI)
|
||
|
|
(note that the shortcut put by the installer on your desktop does NOT
|
||
|
|
point to the CMake GUI program!)
|
||
|
|
4. In the "Where is the source code" box, type or browse to the root
|
||
|
|
directory of your freeglut source (so that's /freeglut, not
|
||
|
|
/freeglut/src).
|
||
|
|
5. In the "Where to build the binaries" box, type or browse to any
|
||
|
|
folder you like - this will be where the Visual Studio solution will be
|
||
|
|
generated. This folder does not have to exist yet.
|
||
|
|
6. Hit the Configure button near the bottom of the window.
|
||
|
|
7. Pick your target compiler, make sure that its installed on your
|
||
|
|
system of course!
|
||
|
|
8. Answer Ok when asked if you want to create the build directory.
|
||
|
|
9. Wait for the configure process to finish.
|
||
|
|
10. The screen will now have some configuration options on it, for
|
||
|
|
instance specifying whether you want to build static and/or shared
|
||
|
|
libraries (see below for a complete list). When you've selected your
|
||
|
|
options, click the Configure button again.
|
||
|
|
11. The Generate button at the bottom will now be enabled. Click Generate.
|
||
|
|
12. The build files will now be generated in the location you picked.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can now navigate to the build directory you specified in step 5.
|
||
|
|
Open the freeglut.sln file that was generated in your build directory,
|
||
|
|
and compile as usual

How to build freeglut on UNIX
|
||
|
|
-----------------------------
|
||
|
|
- Make sure you have cmake installed. Examples:
|
||
|
|
- Debian/Ubuntu: apt-get install cmake
|
||
|
|
- Fedora: yum install cmake
|
||
|
|
- FreeBSD: cd /usr/ports/devel/cmake && make install
|
||
|
|
Or directly from their website:
|
||
|
|
http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
|
||
|
|
- Make sure you have the basics for compiling code, such as C compiler
|
||
|
|
(e.g., GCC) and the make package.
|
||
|
|
- Also make sure you have packages installed that provide the relevant
|
||
|
|
header files for x11 (including xrandr) and opengl (e.g.,
|
||
|
|
libgl1-mesa-dev, libx11-dev and libxrandr-dev on Debian/Ubuntu).
|
||
|
|
- Install XInput: libxi-dev / libXi-devel
|
||
|
|
- Run 'cmake .' in the freeglut directory to generate the makefile.
|
||
|
|
- Run 'make' to build, and 'make install' to install freeglut.
|
||
|
|
- If you wish to change any build options run 'ccmake .'

|
FREEGLUT_BUILD_STATIC_LIBS [ON, OFF] Build freeglut as a static library
|
