Common Requirement Python
- Python-3.7+
- Enter
axmol
root directory - Run
python setup.py
, restart the console after it has finished for environment variables to take effect
Using a console window, an example of a command to generate a new project is as follows:
axmol new -p YOUR.UNIQUE.ID -d PROJECT_PATH -l [cpp|lua] [--portrait] PROJECT_NAME
Type axmol new --help
at the command line for more options you can pass to axmol new
Examples:
- Cpp:
axmol new -p org.axmol.hellocpp -d D:\dev\projects\ -l cpp --portrait HelloCpp
- Lua:
axmol new -p org.axmol.hellolua -d D:\dev\projects\ -l lua --portrait HelloLua
-
Install CMake 3.22.1+
-
Install Visual Studio 2019/2022 (it's recommended that you only use these versions)
-
Create a new project as shown here
-
In a console window, navigate into the root directory of the project you created in the previous step
-
Generate the relevant Visual Studio project using the cmake command:
cmake -S SOURCE_DIR -B BUILD_DIR -G VISUAL_STUDIO_VERSION_STRING -A [Win32|x64]
For example, say
SOURCE_DIR
is the current path"."
, andBUILD_DIR
(out-of-source build directory) is named"build"
:a) C++ 20:
- for 32 bit Visual Studio 2019:
cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A Win32
- for 64 bit Visual Studio 2019:
cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64
- for 32 bit Visual Studio 2022:
cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A Win32
- for 64 bit Visual Studio 2022:
cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64
b) C++17 - add
-DCMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=17
for C++17 on your command line like: cmake -S . -B build-DCMAKE_CXX_STANDARD=17
-G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64 - for 32 bit Visual Studio 2019:
-
Use Visual Studio to open the newly created solution file. For example,
./build/ProjectName.sln
cmake -B build_uwp -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=WindowsStore "-DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=10.0" "-DAX_VS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.0.17763.0"
- Perform steps 1.-6. or the Windows UWP step above (if not done)
- Open the solution (".\build\axmol.sln" or ".\build_uwp\axmol.sln") in Visual Studio and build any of the test projects via the IDE.
- Install Android Studio 2021.1.1+
- When starting Android Studio for the first time, it will guide you to install the SDK and other tools, so ensure that you do install them.
- Start Android and choose [Open an existing Android Studio Project] and select your project. For example, the existing cpp-test project located in
axmol\tests\cpp-tests\proj.android
- Start Android Studio and Open [Tools][SDKManager], then switch to
SDK Tools
, check theShow Package Details
, choose the following tools and click the buttonApply
to install them:- Android SDK Platform 33
- Android Gradle Plugin (AGP) 7.4.2
- Android SDK Build-Tools 30.0.3 match with AGP, refer to: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin
- Gradle 8.1
- NDK r23c+
- CMake 3.22.1+
- Wait for
Gradle sync
finish. - Note: If you use non-sdk provided CMake edition, you will need to download
ninja
from https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja/releases, and copyninja.exe
to cmake's bin directory
- Download command-tools from https://developer.android.com/studio#command-tools, for example: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/commandlinetools-win-9477386_latest.zip
- Install Android devtools (for example in windows)
# unzip command-tools at D:\dev\adt\
# Install android devtools
cd D:\dev\adt\
mkdir sdk
.\cmdline-tools\bin\sdkmanager.bat --verbose --sdk_root=D:\dev\adt\sdk "platform-tools" "cmdline-tools;latest" "platforms;android-33" "build-tools;30.0.3" "cmake;3.22.1" "ndk;23.2.8568313"
set ANDROID_HOME=D:\dev\adt\sdk
# Goto xxx\proj.android
.\gradlew.bat assembleRelease -PPROP_BUILD_TYPE=cmake -PPROP_APP_ABI=arm64-v8a --parallel --info
-
Ensure xcode12+ & cmake3.21+ are installed, install cmake command line support:
sudo "/Applications/CMake.app/Contents/bin/cmake-gui" --install
-
Create a new project as shown here
-
In a console window, navigate into the root directory of the project you created in the previous step
-
Execute the following command
sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
-
Generate the relevant xcode project using one of the following commands:
- for ios arm64:
cmake -S . -B build -GXcode -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$AX_ROOT/cmake/ios.toolchain.cmake -DPLATFORM=OS64
- for ios armv7,arm64 combined:
cmake -S . -B build -GXcode -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$AX_ROOT/cmake/ios.toolchain.cmake -DPLATFORM=OS
- for ios simulator x86_64:
cmake -S . -B build -GXcode -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$AX_ROOT/cmake/ios.toolchain.cmake -DPLATFORM=SIMULATOR64
- for tvos arm64:
cmake -S . -B build -GXcode -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$AX_ROOT/cmake/ios.toolchain.cmake -DPLATFORM=TVOS
- for tvos simulator x86_64:
cmake -S . -B build -GXcode -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$AX_ROOT/cmake/ios.toolchain.cmake -DPLATFORM=SIMULATOR_TVOS
- for macos x86_64(Intel)
cmake -S . -B build -GXcode -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=x86_64
- for macos arm64(M1)
cmake -S . -B build -GXcode -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=arm64
- for ios arm64:
-
After cmake finishes generating, you can open the xcode project at
build
folder and run cpp-tests or other test targets. -
Notes
- The code signing is required to run the ios/tvos app on your device, just change the bundle identifier until the auto manage signing is solved
- axmol only provides aarm64, x86_64 prebuilt libraries for ios/tvos
