STB_Image KOS Port for easy loading of common image types #49

Closed OniEnzeru closed 7 months ago

OniEnzeru commented 7 months ago

STB_Image is a single header library that makes loading for many common images types as simple as a single line of code. This removes the need for users, especially new ones, to go through the hassle of writing texture loading boiler plate.

Was talking w/ @gyrovorbis about this and we feel it would be a great addition to KOS.

As I post this, it's 4AM my time so I still need to work a few things out such as the verification SHA256 hash etc. but that being said, I was able to make install clean the port, and get it working in my PNG example ( PR'd for KOS as a draft ). That PR doesn't have the latest code for that but changing the header to <stb_image/stb_image.h> and adding -lstb_image in the make file linker flags should allow it to work.

The checksum and such aren't terribly important here, since the hacky way of building the tarball might screw with that anyway... Like I said in the other comment, I think that this type of thing should probably be handled in a more graceful way, but it will probably require changes to the kos-ports setup that I don't want to necessarily deal with right now...

Yeah no worries- just glad to have something in for this, hopefully we find a more graceful solution in the future but for now it gets things rolling. Thanks!
