Tutorial Contents

This time, I will explain the tutorial on how to make a home object in 2 dimensional form using C ++ programming language.To generate a 2 dimensional object, you must know about the coordinate point of the object to be created. 2D has 2 point coordinates are often called horizontal and vertical dots. The coordinate format is (x, y). Where point x is the horizontal point, and point y is the vertical point. A line is formed from the relationship between the coordinates, while the object is formed from a collection of lines. So, that's the 2D concept.

To make this tutorial, I use Visual Studio Code application. And this application is open source, so you can download it here. And to create a 2d home object, you can note the syntax below. Not only syntax, I also include an explanation of the syntax.

#include <stdio.h>

The above command is to declare the header used C ++. It is a function for input and output operations.

#include <stdlib.h>

The above command is a functions used for mathematical operations.

#include <GL/glut.h>

That command serves to call the interface function and graphics purposes.

typedef struct{

float x,y;

} point2D_t;

Serves as a declaration for 2D objects.

void userdraw(void);

It is to call the userdraw function

void drawDot(point2D_t p)
{

glBegin(GL_POINTS);

glVertex2f(p.x,p.y);

glEnd();

}

The above command has a function to draw a points.

void drawLine(float x1,float y1,float x2,float y2)
{

glBegin(GL_LINES);

glVertex2f(x1,y1);

glVertex2f(x2,y2);

glEnd();

}

The above function is useful for drawing lines.

void drawLine(point2D_t p1,point2D_t p2)
{

drawLine(p1.x,p1.y,p2.x,p2.y);

}

The above command serves to connect the dots to form a line.

void drawPolyline(point2D_t pnt[],int n)
{

int i;

glBegin(GL_LINE_STRIP);

for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{

    glVertex2f(pnt[i].x,pnt[i].y);

}

glEnd();

}

The above command serves to form a polyline or open curve.

void drawPolygon(point2D_t pnt[],int n)
{

int i;

glBegin(GL_LINE_LOOP);

for(i=0;i<n;i++)

{

    glVertex2f(pnt[i].x,pnt[i].y);

}

glEnd();

}

The above command serves to form a polygon or closed curve.

void setColor(float red,float green,float blue)

{

glColor3f(red,green,blue);

}

The above command serves to declare the RGB (Red, Green, Blue) color.

void userdraw(void)

{

point2D_t rumah[5]={{40.,40.},{110.,40.},{110.,90.},{75.,120},{40.,90.}};

point2D_t pintu[4]={{50.,40.},{50.,70.},{70.,70.},{70.,40}};

point2D_t jendela[4]={{80.,65.},{80.,80.},{95.,80.},{95.,65.}};

point2D_t cerobong[4]={{50.,100.},{50.,120.},{60.,120.},{60.,108}};


setColor(0.,0.,1.);

drawPolygon(rumah,5);

setColor(1.,0.,0.);

drawPolygon(pintu,4);

setColor(1.,0.,1.);

drawPolygon(jendela,4);

setColor(0.,0.,1.);

drawPolyline(cerobong,4);

}

Are the syntaxs to draw a house-shaped object. For simplicity, I use 4 pieces of arrays, where each array will produce one form of polygon. Like a array rumah[5] will produce the shape of the house. Array pintu[4] will produce the shape of a door. Jendela[4] will produce a window shape. And cerobong[4] will produce a chimney shape.

Each form generated from the array is based on the coordinate points within the array. For example like a rumah[5] has 5 pieces of coordinates, which means it will form 5 dots. Then the 5 points will be connected to form a house shape. So did the other arrays.

Color selection is also done on this userdraw function, line staining is done based on each array. Like rumah[5] the color is blue, pintu[4] is red, jendela[4] is violet(mixing of red and blue color), and cerobong[4] is blue.

void display(void)

{

glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

userdraw();

glFlush();

}

Are the syntaxs to display the result of the userdraw function.

void main (int argc,char **argv)

{

glutInit(&argc, argv);

glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);

glutInitWindowSize(640,480);

glutInitWindowPosition(100, 150);

glutCreateWindow("Rumah 2 Dimensi");

glClearColor(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0);

gluOrtho2D(0., 640., 0.0, 480.0);

glutDisplayFunc(display);

glutMainLoop();

}

It is a main function, this command serves to set the display mode, window size, windows position, title, display color, and display function calling.

So the result will look like the picture below.
