The document provides a step-by-step guide on installing FLTK on Windows 10 using Visual Studio 2017 or 2019. It includes instructions on downloading FLTK, creating a build directory, using CMake to generate the solution file, and building the solution in Visual Studio. The author mentions potential confusion regarding folder copying and hints at a future part two for additional guidance.
Fltk on win10 with visual studio
- 1. Install FLTK onWindows 10 with Visual Studio 2017,2019 Made by Alejandro Colomer
- 2. Download FLTK fromGithub, latest version is 1.4
- 3. Choose a pathto unzip or git clone
- 4. Now open theDeveloper Command Line Prompt from Visual Studio 2019
- 5. Type cd +“Your Path where fltk folder is”
- 6. Then create afolder named “build” Then move inside the folder
- 7. Time to useCmake to build the “Solution File” for Visual Studio 2019/2017. Type the following Noticethat “Visual Studio15” representssome sortof installation folder in“Program Files(x86)” forMS Visual Studio2017. If youhave MS VisualStudio2015 installed, then you shouldtype“Visual Studio 14”, you get the idea. For some reason it worked inVS2019.
- 8. Now that youbuild the Solution file, it’s time to it! Double click , FLTK.sln!!
- 9.
- 10. Now, just right-clickany of the files and select Debug -> Start new instance
- 11. What sorcery isthis?! Definitely it Works
- 12. When you clickedBuild Solution, notice you were in Debug mode, you also want to build the Solution for Release Mode too! I guess?
- 13. I guess I’llmake a part 2 later on… •Thanks for following up till now. •After building your Solution folder you might to copy the useful folders to your MS Visual Studio 2017/2019 installation folders in C:Program Files(x86)Microsoft Visual Studio2019etc… •I haven´t done the step above because it’s kind of confusing for me since I’m not a Visual Studio guy, I’m more of Java related developer. •In part 2 I’ll show what to include in Visual Studio path for ease of access to create GUI using the book of Bjarn Stroup, Principles and Practicess of Cpp 2nd Edition. •Farewell!!
