OGLplus port of OpenGL SuperBible 7th Edition Source Code

This is an OGLplus port of the example source code for the 7th edition of the OpenGL SuperBible. This port was done for the purpose of becoming more familiar with OGLplus and modern OpenGL, while also creating a rosetta stone for mapping between the two.

Please note that I have no affiliation with either OGLplus or the SB7 examples, nor has either project endorsed this effort. With that said, I think you'll find OGLplus greatly streamlines OpenGL code, making it a worthwhile addition to most OpenGL projects.

For the original example source, see:

Note the Quickbook docs are particularly useful. The tutorials are also worth a look, however the Doxygen is currently out-of-date and significantly hampered by all the macro-driven template instantiation and specialization):

Porting Status

For a list of files that have been ported, open CMakeLists.txt and see the EXAMPLES_PLUS variable.

Other Changes & Differences

In porting these examples, I have taken care to change as little as possible. This was done primarily to facilitate a side-by-side comparison of how OGLplus does things vs. plain OpenGL. As such, there are potential improvements and non-critical errors I've not addressed.

The fixes I have applied are mostly from pull-requests submitted (but not applied) to the original project:

• openglsuperbible#5
• openglsuperbible#7

Other changes include:

• Changed output directory of example programs from being relative to the CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR to being in CMAKE_BINARY_DIR.
• Removed extern/glfw-3.0.4/ - users are now responsible for providing glfw3.
• Removing Khronos header files, in order to ensure system-supplied versions are used instead.
• CMake cleanup: Changed project name, enabled C++11 using the proper method.
• Added snapshot of internal files from oglplus-0.71.0 needed to build its examples & borrowed to build the OGLplus ports of the SB7 examples.

Building

Please read HOWTOBUILD.txt. It tells you how to build and run the examples.

Running

Note that to run these examples, you need the associated media files which are available from http://openglsuperbible.com/files/superbible7-media.zip.
