About

dropMath is a single header C++ math library with a primary focus on ease of use.

The main target audience for this library are game developers who want to have a modern C++ interface for the math library they are using.

Installation

Using CPM.cmake

The preferred method of installing this library is through the cpm package manager that you can find here:

https://github.com/cpm-cmake/CPM.cmake

Once you have CPM "installed" you can use dropMath like so:

CPMAddPackage("gh:Erarnitox/dropMath#main")
target_link_libraries(your_executable PRIVATE dropMath::dropMath)

Using CMake FetchContent

You can also install the library using the CMake built in function FetchContent directly, without using a package manager like so:

include(FetchContent)

FetchContent_Declare(
    dropMath
    GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/Erarnitox/dropMath.git 
    GIT_TAG main
    GIT_PROGRESS TRUE
)

FetchContent_MakeAvailable(dropMath)

target_link_libraries(your_executable PRIVATE dropMath::dropMath)

If you are not using CMake

To install and use dropMath, and you are not using CMake, you only need to include the header (header/dropMath) in this repository.

Download the header

In your project directory run:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DropSoftCommunity/dropMath/main/dropMath.hpp

You should now have the header file dropMath.hpp in your project directory.

Using dropMath

You should now be able to include the header from the same directory in your source files like this:

#include "dropMath.hpp" //include dropMath

int main(){
	/*Drop Math can now be used.
	  As an example I just created a Vector3 here
	*/
	drop::math::Vector3 vec{ 1.f, 2.f, 3.f };

	//...
	return 0;
}

Examples

You can find some example usage of the library in the examples directory of this repository.
