Conventions used in this book

• auto is used for creating local variables.
• using namespace cocos2d; is used to shorten types.
• each chapter has a compilable source code sample to demonstrate concepts.
• each chapter should subclass Ref
• each chapter should do as much work in the constructor. no need for ::init()
• model the code design after chapter 2's example code. Follow these same conventions.

Prerequisites

• make sure to drop in the pre-built libraries into libs/. For iOS you should have:

libs/libcocos2d iOS.a

For Android you should have everything if you have the Cocos app installed. If you do not, you can drop the pre-built libraries into libs/ and edit your projects config to reflect this.
