Build

This is the MinilibX, a simple X-Window (X11R6) programming API in C, designed for students, suitable for X-beginners.

Contents

  • source code in C to create the mlx library
  • man pages (in man/ directory)
  • a test program (in test/ directory) is built with the library
  • a public include file mlx.h
  • a tiny configure script to generate an appropriate Makefile.gen

Requirements for Linux

  • MinilibX only support TrueColor visual type (8,15,16,24 or 32 bits depth)
  • gcc
  • make
  • X11 include files (package xorg)
  • XShm extension must be present (package libxext-dev)
  • Utility functions from BSD systems - development files (package libbsd-dev)
  • e.g. sudo apt-get install gcc make xorg libxext-dev libbsd-dev (Debian/Ubuntu)

Requirements for MacOS

~ Brew install Xquartz
➜  ~ reboot
➜  ~ xeyes # run an hello world X11 app

MlX Color Opacity / Transparency / Alpha (32 bits depth)

  • 0xFF (fully transparent) or 0x00 (fully opaque)

Compile MinilibX

  • run ./configure or make both will make a few tests, create Makefile.gen and then automatically run make on this generated Makefile.gen . libmlx.a and libmlx_$(HOSTTYPE).a are created. test/mlx-test binary is also created.

Install MinilibX

  • no installation script is provided. You may want to install
    • libmlx.a and/or libmlx_$(HOSTTYPE).a in /usr/X11/lib or /usr/local/lib
    • mlx.h in /usr/X11/include or /usr/local/include
    • man/man3/mlx*.1 in /usr/X11/man/man3 or /usr/local/man/man3
