Extended-Cpp-Module

A library to extend the Cpp functionalities. It is intended to provide simple use of larger systems, such as creating windows and integrating graphic APIs. It uses some open source libraries and encapsulates them in its own code.

Libraries

Library	Main header	Description
ecm.dll	ecm.h	Provides the basic types and functions.
ecm.math.lib	ecm_math.hpp	Provides mathematic functions.
ecm.algorithm.dll	ecm_algorithm.hpp	Provides some algorithms.
ecm.window.dll	ecm_window.hpp	Provides types and functions for managing windows and their events.
ecm.graphics.dll	ecm_graphics.hpp	Provides the basic types and functions for the graphics system.

Examples

Window and graphics context

int main()
{
  ecm::GraphicsAPI gApi{ ecm::GRAPHICSAPI_OPENGL };
  ecm::Window window = ecm::CreateWindow("Test window", { 800, 600 },
    ecm::WINDOWFLAG_RESIZABLE, ecm::WINDOWMODE_SHOWN, gApi);

  ecm::ContextBase* context = nullptr;
  if (gApi == ecm::GRAPHICSAPI_OPENGL)
    context = new ecm::gl::OpenGLContext();
  else context = new ecm::SDLRendererContext();

  context->Initialize(window);
  context->SetColor(ecm::ColorF(0x1A304Cff));
  context->SetVSyncMode(ecm::VSYNC_ENABLED);

  while (!window.IsClosed())
  {
    ecm::Event e{};
    while (ecm::PollEvent(e));

    context->ClearBuffers();
    context->SwapBuffers();
  }

  context->Shutdown();
  delete context;
  ecm::DestroyWindow(window);
}
