Day 77/100 100 Days of Code

Hey! I figured out what I should name the project. The original name was "jumping_physics" but I didn't really like it. Jumping Ball is much better.

I made a lot of changes to the project and removed every line of code that was relative to C++. Now, the Project is C only.

I started working on the main components of the application and started building the Initialise , FindResource, and ExitApplication functions and created a Resource struct.

The initialise function will be used to handle the initialisation of every component the application needs.

bool InitApp()
{
    if (SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) != 0)
    {
        printf("%s", SDL_GetError());
        return false;
    }

    appWindow = SDL_CreateWindow(    "Jumping Ball", screenwidth,
                                     screenheight, SDL_WINDOW_MAXIMIZED);

    if (appWindow == NULL)
    {
        printF("Failed to create window %s", SDL_GetError());
        return false;
    }
    appRenderer = SDL_CreateRenderer(    appWindow, NULL, 0);

    if (appRenderer == NULL)
    {
        printf("Failed to create rendenrer %s", SDL_GetError());
        return false;
    }

    return true;                                                                                                                                            
}

The ExitApplication function will be used to remove and deactivate every component.

void ExitApplication()
{
    SDL_DestroyRenderer(appRenderer);
    SDL_DestroyWindow(appWindow);        
    mainWindow = NULL;
    appRenderer = NULL;                                                                                            
    SDL_Quit();
}

The Resource struct will be used to handle resource loading with the help of FindResource() function.

typedef struct Resource
{
    char *location;
};

char* FindResource(char *fileLocation)
{
    char *execPath; 
    getBundlePath(execPath);

    strcat(execPath, fileLocation);
    return execPath;
}

And last but not least, I updated the CMakeLists.txt file to include some missing components.
