at 2014/4/27 add the GLFW3WindowManager; add example 08curves2d;

at 2014/4/27 This project is forked and initialized from https://github.com/jonparrott/PhoenixCore Thank you very much for the original author for sharing:-) thx

below is the context of the original readme.md

PhoenixCore

PhoenixCore is an experimental 2D rendering framework based on OpenGL and written in C++. It is a fairly abstract library for rendering 2D geometry. PhoenixCore's features include:

  • Setting up an OpenGL Context.
  • Processing user Input (Keyboard, Mouse).
  • Managing OpenGL Context (swapping buffers, etc).
  • Provides abstract math classes for Vectors and Matrices.
  • Provides interface to loading and manipulating Textures.
  • Provides methods to modify the View Port and Transformation Matrix.
  • Provides classes for representing geometric primitives.
  • Provides methods for drawing geometric primitives.
  • Provides abstract class for Color representation and manipulation.
  • Provides access to high-precision timers.
  • Provides high-level threaded resource management.
  • Implements an experimental automatic optimizing batch renderer.

Goals

Phoenix's main goal is to provide and abstract interface for drawing 2d geometry with OpenGL. Phoenix is very basic, and does not provide features such as physics, sound, collision, or even a high level sprite class. However, phoenix is designed to integrate with other systems very easily

What Phoenix Is Not

Phoenix is not a complete library for game development. It does not provide many of the needed libraries for game development. However, Phoenix is a good base and integrates very well with other libraries such as OpenAL, Box2D, etc.

Building

Requirements

  • Cmake 2.8 or newer
  • Boost C++ Libraries (1.37 or newer)
  • Boost Threads
  • Boost Datetime
  • Boost Signals 2
  • GLFW (2.7 or newer)

Boost and GLFW are usually available via the package manager on many Linux distributions.

On Windows you can download GLFW from their website and I highly suggest you use the Boost Installer from Boost Pro Consulting.

Linux/Unixes

  • mkdir build && cd build
  • cmake ..
  • make

Windows

  • mkdir build

  • cd build

  • Invoke CMake with the generator and paths to the libraries, should be similar to:

    cmake -G"Visual Studio 10" -DGLFW_PATH="J:\Development\glfw-lite" -DPHOENIX_PATH="J:\Development\phoenixgl" -DBOX2D_PATH="J:\Development\Box2D" -DBOOST_ROOT="D:\boost_1_47" ..

  • A Visual Studio solution should be generated that will allow you to build the core library, tests, and examples.

Special Thanks

There are a couple of brave souls that made PhoenixCore possible, among these are:
