Allegro

You’re assignment today is to begin reading and working through these Allegro C++ tutorials:Allegro Basics 

• I/O 
  
• Drawing Primitives 
  
• Drawing Graphics From Files 
• Animation 
  
• Backgrounds 
  
• Mouse 
  
• Animation II

You can access each tutorial by using the menu in the upper left hand corner; under "Allegro Lessons". 

When you begin an Allegro Project, after you start a new project, and add a piece of source code, you must link the allegro library.

To do this, you must go to the menu bar and click "Project", "... Properties", then add "alleg.lib" to the "Additional Dependancies" field under "Input" under "Linker" under "Configuration Properties". Check out the following screenshot.

 

For each section, you must upload your main.cpp file; make sure that you include the tutorial section (Allegro Basics, I/O, Drawing Primitives, Drawing Graphics From Files, Animation, Backgrounds, Mouse, Animation II) in the description field when you upload. I expect you to actually READ these. 

Be prepared to answer questions about Allegro tomorrow. I expect you to get all of these read, compiled, and uploaded.
