Dependencies

• A version of g++ with C++11 support. Tested on g++-4.9
• libSDL2
• libSDL2_image
• libSDL2_mixer
• libSDL2_ttf
• libphysfs
• libfmt
• libboost (only needed for compiling)
• libboost-program-options

Building

The only supported build method is using the CMake
To build do:

./packdata.sh
cmake .
# or
# cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug .
# or
# cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .
make

The result should be in the "Game"-folder. To run

./Game/blockattack

You can also choose to install it with

sudo make install

Windows build uses MXE (mxe.cc) and Docker. See "Building with Docker".

Building using Docker

As getting a C++ project with many dependencies to compile can be a daunting task then I have provided a couple of Docker images that can perform a build. Both for Windows and Linux.

The project should at all time be able to compile on the oldest and latest supported version of Ubuntu. This is tested with Docker.

On a fresh checkout you can use:

docker build -f source/misc/docker/Dockerfile.Ubuntu18.04build . -t blockattack_test

and

docker build -f source/misc/docker/Dockerfile.WindoesBuild . -t blockattack_test

Source Structure

This project is a bit unconventional because I didn't know any better at the time.

• Game - The output is placed here
• man - The manual file and the script to generate it. May be moved to source/misc at some point
• source/code/ - The source code
• source/code/Libs - External libs that are compiled into the project because they are either header only (Cereal) or not designed for use as a shared library.
• source/code/sago - Source code. Not designed to be specific to Block Attack - Rise of the Blocks
• source/assets - Source for the assets if relevant. For instance svg source for the graphics.
• source/misc - Misc stuff. Code related tool that are used for development but not part of the final product.
• source/misc/astyle - Helper script that enforces code style using the "astyle"-program
• source/misc/docker - Docker files used by Travis CI (but can just as well be used for local testing and release builds)
• source/misc/embedded_libs - Contains dependencies not present on all supported systems
• source/misc/icons - Icons for the installer
• source/misc/screenshots - Screen shots like the one in this README file.
• source/misc/translation - Translations and related tools and scripts
• windows installer - Information needed to Windows installer. May be moved to source/misc at some point
