Vcpkg

Overview

Vcpkg helps you get C and C++ libraries on Windows. This tool and ecosystem are currently in a preview state; your involvement is vital to its success.

For short description of available commands, run vcpkg help.

Quick Start

Prerequisites:

  • Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 or
  • Visual Studio 2017
  • git.exe available in your path

Clone this repository, then run

C:\src\vcpkg> powershell -exec bypass scripts\bootstrap.ps1

Then, to hook up user-wide integration, run (note: requires admin on first use)

C:\src\vcpkg> .\vcpkg integrate install

Install any packages with

C:\src\vcpkg> .\vcpkg install sdl2 curl

Finally, create a New Project (or open an existing one) in Visual Studio 2015 or Visual Studio "15" Preview. You can now #include and use any of the installed libraries.

Examples

See the docs\EXAMPLES.md document for specific walkthroughs, including using a package and adding a new package.

See a 4 minute demo in video.
