Odin

Auto-generated Odin bindings for the sokol headers.

To include sokol in your project you can copy the sokol directory.

BUILD

Supported platforms are: Windows, macOS, Linux (with X11)

On Linux install the following packages: libglu1-mesa-dev, mesa-common-dev, xorg-dev, libasound-dev (or generally: the dev packages required for X11, GL and ALSA development)

  1. First build the required static link libraries:

    cd sokol
    # on macOS:
    ./build_clibs_macos.sh
    # on Linux:
    ./build_clibs_linux.sh
    # on Windows with MSVC (from a 'Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt')
    build_clibs_windows.cmd
    cd ..
    
  2. Create a build directory and cd into it:

    mkdir build
    cd build
    
  3. Build and run the samples:

    odin run ../examples/clear -debug
    odin run ../examples/triangle -debug
    odin run ../examples/quad -debug
    odin run ../examples/bufferoffsets -debug
    odin run ../examples/cube -debug
    odin run ../examples/noninterleaved -debug
    odin run ../examples/texcube -debug
    odin run ../examples/shapes -debug
    odin run ../examples/offscreen -debug
    odin run ../examples/instancing -debug
    odin run ../examples/mrt -debug
    odin run ../examples/blend -debug
    odin run ../examples/debugtext -debug
    odin run ../examples/debugtext-print -debug
    odin run ../examples/debugtext-userfont -debug
    odin run ../examples/saudio -debug
    odin run ../examples/sgl -debug
    odin run ../examples/sgl-points -debug
    odin run ../examples/sgl-context -debug
    

    By default, the backend 3D API will be selected based on the target platform:

    • macOS: Metal
    • Windows: D3D11
    • Linux: GL

    To force the GL backend on macOS or Windows, build with -define:SOKOL_USE_GL=true:

    odin run ../examples/clear -debug -define:SOKOL_USE_GL=true
    

    The clear sample prints the selected backend to the terminal:

    odin run ../examples/clear -debug -define:SOKOL_USE_GL=true
    >> using GL backend
    

    On Windows, you can get rid of the automatically opened terminal window by building with the -subsystem:windows option:

    odin build ../examples/clear -subsystem:windows
