http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_Ori ... put_System i think this is "pure" io. I have never used it directly, but it was a dependency for something i worked on. Maybe this is what you are looking for.Milch wrote:I think SDL and SFML is what you're looking for, but unfortunately there is no "pure" I/O and window creating lib that I know of.
SDL/SFML have soo much unnecessary stuff in it that you simply don't use if you just want I/O and window creating.
As long as whatever your targetted platform/architecture is has a proper implementation of the C and C++ standard libraries, both of those are "platform independent."MadPumpkin wrote:Does anyone know what probably the best I/O is to use with OpenGL that is NOT OS dependent?

I'm pretty sure he means user I/O, not file I/O.GyroVorbis wrote:As long as whatever your targetted platform/architecture is has a proper implementation of the C and C++ standard libraries, both of those are "platform independent."MadPumpkin wrote:Does anyone know what probably the best I/O is to use with OpenGL that is NOT OS dependent?

Use either the fscanf(), fprintf(), etc series with C or fstreams with C++.

I'm quite familiar with SDL but not at all with SFML. I've heard lots of good things about SFML though. What are the differences between SFML and SDL?Milch wrote:I think SDL and SFML is what you're looking for, but unfortunately there is no "pure" I/O and window creating lib that I know of.

To be honest, not many. I'd recommend SFML over SDL to a newbie, but if you're familiar with SDL already the benefits are minimal. SFML's 2D rendering capabilities are superior, and it has a few helper classes (ie. Sprite) similar to XNA.MadPumpkin wrote:What are the differences between SFML and SDL?
Oh alright, any rendering is pointless then actually xD I'm using OpenGL for rendering anyways.dandymcgee wrote:To be honest, not many.

No it's not because he's using OpenGL for rendering.Milch wrote:Actually, SFML uses OpenGL to render stuff and SDL only uses software.
So thats a big difference!
