Debian Games C, C++ and D development packages

This package is needed to build programs using the Allegro 5 library. Contains header files.

Allegro is a cross-platform library intended for use in computer games and other types of multimedia programming. Allegro 5 is the latest major revision of the library, designed to take advantage of modern hardware (e.g. hardware acceleration using 3D cards) and operating systems. Although it is not backwards compatible with earlier versions, it still occupies the same niche and retains a familiar style.

ALURE is a utility library to help manage common tasks with OpenAL applications. This includes device enumeration and initialization, file loading, and streaming.

The purpose of this library is to provide pre-made functionality that would otherwise be repetitive or difficult to (re)code for various projects and platforms, such as loading a sound file into an OpenAL buffer and streaming an audio file through a buffer queue. Support for different formats is consistent across platforms, so no special checks are needed when loading files, and all formats are handled through the same API.

Currently ALURE includes a basic .wav and .aif file reader, and can leverage external libraries such as libSndFile (for extended wave formats and several others), VorbisFile (for Ogg Vorbis), and FLAC (for FLAC and Ogg FLAC), and others. External libraries can also be dynamically loaded at run-time, or individually disabled outright at compile time.

This package contains the files necessary for development.

freealut is a free implementation of OpenAL's ALUT standard. ALUT is a set of portable functions which remove the annoying details of getting an audio application started. It is the OpenAL counterpart of what GLUT is for OpenGL.

This package contains libraries and headers suitable for software development with ALUT.

The Boost web site provides free, peer-reviewed, portable C++ source libraries. The emphasis is on libraries which work well with the C++ Standard Library. One goal is to establish "existing practice" and provide reference implementations so that the Boost libraries are suitable for eventual standardization. Some of the libraries have already been proposed for inclusion in the C++ Standards Committee's upcoming C++ Standard Library Technical Report.

This metapackage provides the complete Boost development environment, including all separately-packaged libraries.

This package is a dependency package, which depends on Debian's default Boost version (currently 1.83).

2D rigid body simulation library for games. Programmers can use it in their games to make objects move in believable ways and make the world seem more interactive. From the game's point of view a physics engine is just a system for procedural animation. Rather than paying (or begging) an animator to move your actors around, you can let Sir Isaac Newton do the directing.

This package contains the development libraries and headers.

ClanLib is a multi-platform software development kit, with an emphasis on game development.

On one side, it tries to provide a platform independent interface to write games with, by taking over the low-level work from the game and providing wrappers around toolkits such as OpenGL, Vorbis, X11, etc., so that if a game is written with ClanLib, the game should compile on any platform supported by ClanLib without changing its source code.

On the other hand, ClanLib also tries to be a service-minded SDK. In other words, the developers have put great effort into designing the API, to ensure ClanLib's ease of use - while maintaining its power.

This is the development part of the ClanLib SDK, which is needed to build applications with it.
