Building the source

Serge van Keulen

On Windows

Make sure to have cmake installed with the command-line binaries in the PATH

After downloading the source, unpack the file "Externals.zip" to "externals" at the source level.
Now create a new directory at the source level, for example "build".
Open a console and go to the "build" directory.
Now run
> cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" ..
at the prompt.

There will now be a Visual Studio 2008 solution in the build directory which you can open to build the SuperShaper project.

To generate other project files, please see the cmake documentation.

Note1:
When building the Debug configuration, a number of files are generated (ending with .obfuscated). These are required for the release build. So before building the Release configuration, build the Debug configuration first.

Note2:
The binaries in "externals.zip" are build with VisualStudio 2008 for use with that version of the Runtime Libraries.
