Building
Build instructions are available for Ubuntu Linux and Microsoft Windows
Windows (64-bit) CMake
Included in the repository is a CMake lists file along with a configure batch script. The script is setup to run cmake and output a Visual Studio 2015 x64 solution with project files for each subsystem of Vixen Engine.
All you need to do is run the configure script and locate the generate solution in the _build directory.
NOTE: All dependencies have been included prebuilt targeting x64 with VC++14 compiler in the repository for building on Windows.
Linux CMake
Vixen Engine is being developed on Linux using CMake.
All you need to do to setup development for Linux is navigate into the Linux directory of the repo, and run the supplied configure shell script. It will run cmake and output the Makefile to the _build directory which will function as your testbed for development.
NOTE: All Vixen libraries will output to /usr/local/lib as specified in Makefile.
