Configuration

This section provides information on how to configure the Raylib VScode Extension to work properly with your development environment. Follow these instructions to set up the necessary paths and settings for the extension.

You can access the extension settings by opening Visual Studio Code, clicking on the gear icon in the lower-left corner, and selecting "Settings" or by pressing Ctrl+,. In the search bar, type "Raylib" to filter the settings related to the extension.

RPC Path Configuration

This setting allows you to specify the path to the Raylib Project Creator (RPC) executable. The extension uses RPC to create new Raylib projects. You need to provide the correct path to the RPC executable in order for the extension to function properly.

MinGW Path Configuration (Windows Only)

This setting allows you to specify the path to the MinGW compiler executable. The extension uses MinGW to compile Raylib projects on Windows. You need to provide the correct path to the MinGW executable in order for the extension to compile your projects successfully. Needs to point to the bin folder of your MinGW installation, for example: C:\raylib\MinGW\bin\.

Compiler Threads Configuration

This setting allows you to specify the number of threads to use for compiling Raylib projects. By default, the extension uses a single thread for compilation. However, you can increase the number of threads to speed up the compilation process, especially for larger projects. Set this value according to your system's capabilities and the number of CPU cores available.

Extra Build Parameters Configuration

This setting allows you to specify additional compiler flags or options to customize the build process for your Raylib projects. You can enter any valid compiler flags that you want to use during the compilation. These extra parameters will be passed to the compiler when building your projects, allowing you to enable specific features, optimize performance, or debug your code as needed.
