EPOC – Experimental Platform for Object Oriented C++
EPOC
Introduction
EPOC is short for Experimental Platform for Objectoriented C++
EPOC is a object oriented wrapper for Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL). I originally designed it to be used as a learning platform in university courses teaching beginner level C++ at Blekinge Institute of Technlogy.
With EPOC you can create visual applications/games even with little programming experience. It is very simple to create images, animations, text, sound, and music with EPOC. EPOC is although very flexible and allows the user to dig deep if he wants to, or keep it very simple if that’s needed!
Features
EPOC is based on SDL, SDL image, SDL Mixer, SDL TTF and somewhat on OpenGL. Hence EPOC supports loading of the following resource formats and the use of any SDL functionality that exists in the SDL libraries listed above.
- Graphics
- Bmp, gif, jpeg, lbm, pcx, png, pnm, tga, tiff, xcf, xpm and xv
- Sound
- Wave, aiff, riff, ogg and voc
- Music
- Wave, mod, midi, ogg and mp3
- Font
- TrueType
