graphics.h in CodeLite?

It was a header that was available in old Borland compilers. Used strictly for graphics in MS-Dos apps. You are at least 7 operating systems, 16 bits, 20 years and untold compiler versions removed from using it.

Yes, I know that <graphics.h> is gone. I am new to C/C++ and my knowledge is confined to the computer graphics being taught to us in college.

Is there some way I can use graphics.h in CodeLite to study the programs?

Solution

  • The similar level of abstraction in C can be easily reached with SDL You will want SDL_Surface to put points of Bresenham to.

    I'd also recommend ClanLib for use with C++, as more convenient to start with.

    Both libraries are cross-platform (and can use OpenGL as engine)
