# Porting Dethrace to other systems

## Operating Systems

See: xxx

Assuming an operating system called _foo_, follow the steps to add support for it.

1. Add a new file `os/foo.h` and implement the required functions defined in `os.h`:
- `OS_GetTime`
- `OS_Sleep`
- `OS_Basename`
- `OS_GetFirstFileInDirectory`
- `OS_GetNextFileInDirectory`
- `OS_IsDebuggerPresent`
- `OS_InstallSignalHandler`

2. Update `src/harness/CMakeLists.h` and add a new conditional section for "os/foo.h", based on existing conditions for Windows, MacOS etc.

For example:

```
...
elseif( _FOO_ )
target_sources(harness PRIVATE
os/foo.c
)
...
```

## IO Platform (windowing / input / rendering)

An `IOPlatform` in _dethrace_ implements windowing and input handling, and points to a _renderer_.

The default IO platform is `SDL_OpenGL`, which uses SDL for windowing and input, and OpenGL for rendering. See `io_platforms/sdl_gl.c`.

To add a new `IOPlatform`:

1. Create `io_platforms/my_platform.c` file and implement the required functions defined in `io_platform.h`:
- `Window_Create`
- `Window_PollEvents`
- `Window_Swap`
- `Input_GetKeyMap`
- `Input_IsKeyDown`

`Window_Create` returns a `tRenderer*`, which must implement the interface defined in `renderers/renderer.h`. See `renderers/gl` for an example.

2. Add a new conditional section in `src/harness/CMakeLists.txt` for your new platform

For example:
```
if (IO_PLATFORM STREQUAL "My_Platform")
target_sources(harness PRIVATE
io_platforms/my_platform.c
)
endif()
```

3. Run cmake to update your build with the new platform
```sh
cd build
cmake -DIO_PLATFORM=My_Platform ..
```

4. Build
```
cmake --build .
```
