Latest COCOS2D-X 3.2 Development environment Setup (under Windows environment)

This article is based on cocos2d-x-3. 2 and vs2012 in the context of the configuration.

1. Download the cocos2d-x-3.2 file from the official website (www.cocos2d-x.org) first.

2, because cocos2d-x more than 3.0 of the version requires the system Windows7 above, vs2012 above. Search and download the VS2012 image and key on the Internet, install the vs2012.

3. Locate "Cocos2d-win32.vc2012.sln" in the build file in the cocos2d-x-3.2 file, and then double-click Run.

4, set the "Cpp-empty-test" as the startup item in the VS2012 interface, then wait for vs auto-generation, it may take some time, depending on the machine performance. (Operations such as)

5. After the build succeeds, run. Direct Ctrl-f5 or as the operation, if all goes well, you will see the "Cpp-empty-test" program run up the interface.

The interface after the program runs

At this point, Cocos2d-x's vs2012 development environment is configured, and the next step is to create a new Cocos2d-x project.

Because of the high version like Cocos2d-x 3.2, official files are created with Python scripts to make it easier.

1, first we want to download the latest version of Python 2.7 (2.7.8,ps. I used 2.7.6 when the problem, so I changed the latest version), after installation. Add the Python root directory to the system's environment variable path.

2, then we need to "cocos.py" the full path of this script (cocos2d-x-3.2 root directory "\tools\cocos2d-console\bin",) add to the environment variable path inside, or CD to this file to create also line, I use the former.

3, we ctrl-r, open cmd, enter "Cocos" return, you can see the new parameter is "Creates a new project", then we enter "Cocos new" carriage return to see which parameters to take. [- h] [-P package_name]-l {CPP,LUA,JS} [-D DIRECTORY].

Example.

"Yew1eb" is the package name, "CPP" is the development language used (Coco2d-x supports three languages cpp,lua,js), "F:\cocos2d-x-test" is the project's storage path.

4, then we open the project storage file "F:\cocos2d-x-test\MyCppGame", you can see the project of each platform.

5, then we double-click "Proj.win32" folder inside the "MyCppGame.sln" can open vs2012 for development.

The entire environment configuration process is complete.
