Setting up a HGE project

To use HGE you must first tell your compiler where to find the required headers and import libraries. All the headers are common and they're located in the "include" folder. You should use the libraries from the appropriate folder for your compiler:

  • For Visual C++ and Intel C++ use the libraries from the "lib\vc" folder.
  • For Borland C++ and C++ Builder use the libraries from the "lib\bc" folder.
  • For MinGW32 use the libraries from the "lib\gcc" folder.
  • For Metrowerks Codewarrior use either Visual C++ or Borland C++ libraries.

Examples of how to set up various compilers and create a blank HGE project:

Visual C++ 6.0
Visual Studio .NET
Borland C++ Builder 4
Dev C++ 5
