Hello! I made this document for anyone trying to setup an enviroment for SDL2 on Windows using VS Code for building and debugging.
This is just a basic setup to test everything works and compiles correctly. This is adapted from this guide by Adam Richardson, made to work with the UCRT enviroment.
So, let's get to it.
| // Quick test of environment variable passing | |
| // $ cc -nostartfiles -o testenv testenv.cpp | |
| // $ cl testenv.cpp /link /subsystem:console kernel32.lib | |
| // | |
| // Spawns a copy of itself with a custom-built environment block, and | |
| // the spawned child examines/probes that block. | |
| // | |
| // This is free and unencumbered software released into the public domain. | |
