shared_sources repository

This folder is a repository of shared source code : all other samples might need to cherry-pick some code from here

It means that you must clone this repository prior to trying samples.

Folders

• cmake: contains the 'find' files to search for cmake packages
• nv_helpers: contains various helpers to simplify the code of samples.
• nv_helpers_gl: contains various helpers for OpenGL
• (TODO) nv_helpers_d3d: contains various helpers for D3D
• (TODO) nv_helpers_cuda: contains helpers for CUDA
• nv_math: math library used by almost all the samples
• glew: the samples do take the glew.c prior to linking with its library. Easier and good enough. Taken from http://glew.sourceforge.net/ if you want to take one from somewhere else, specify its base directory with GLEW_LOCATION

files

• CMakeLists_include.txt: common file that every samples CMakeLists.txt will include
• main.h: no matter the kind of sample, the main part is shared. This is the include for all
• main_glfw.cpp: main file for samples building with glfw (option in cmake)
• main_win32.cpp: main file for samples building for win32
• resources.h; resources.rc; opengl.ico: typical Windows stuff
• (TODO)download_all script: run this script if you want to clone all the available samples

shared_external folder

The samples do rely on few external tools in order to compile. You can find them here
