How to contribute

Installation

To use this as a dependency, add the following code to your Cargo.toml file:

    [dependencies.pistoncore-sdl2_window]
    git = "https://github.com/PistonDevelopers/sdl2_game_window"

How to create a window

let mut window = Sdl2Window::new(
    shader_version::opengl::OpenGL_3_2,
    WindowSettings {
        title: "My application".to_string(),
        size: [640, 480],
        fullscreen: false,
        exit_on_esc: true,
        samples: 4,
    }
);

How to set up Gfx

After you have created a window, do the following:

let mut device = gfx::GlDevice::new(|s| unsafe {
    transmute(sdl2::video::gl_get_proc_address(s))
});
let (w, h) = window.get_size();
let frame = gfx::Frame::new(w as u16, h as u16);
