15 [T] ClanLib is a medium level development kit. At its lowest level, it
16 [T] provides a platform independent (as much as that is possible in C++)
17 [T] way of dealing with display, sound, input, networking, files,
18 [T] threadding and such.
20 [T] On top of that, ClanLib builds a generic game development framework,
21 [T] giving you easy handling of resources, network object replication,
22 [T] graphical user interfaces (GUI) with theme support, game scripting
25 [T] The goal of ClanLib is to allow the game developer to focus on stuff
26 [T] that matters, avoiding all those nasty (and boring) lowlevel trivials
27 [T] like setting up a directdraw window, sound mixing, reading image
28 [T] files, etc. All those things are simplified into object oriented
29 [T] classes and function calls, making it a joy to write your game.
31 [T] ClanLib uses a resource system to keep track of images, fonts, samples
32 [T] and music. It supports Targa, PCX, JPEG, PNG and BMP for images. Wave
33 [T] files for sample. Ogg Vorbis (open sound format that has same sound
34 [T] quality as mp3) and MikMod for music. By using a resource system,
35 [T] you cleanly seperate the physical data formats from your code, and
36 [T] makes it easy to make themes and other plugins for your game. The
37 [T] resource system is written in a manner that allows you to add your
38 [T] own custom resources.
40 [T] WARNING: this lib is very huge, but unfortunately needed by games like
41 [T] methane brothers or pingus
