wlgol

Simple Wayland Game of Life in C11. Draws directly into a shared-memory buffer (no OpenGL/Vulkan).

Build definition: CMakeLists.txt
Generated code: xdg-shell.xml is vendored; wayland-scanner produces xdg-shell.h and xdg-shell.c inside build/
Source layout: wlgol.c is the entry point; tkeyboard.c, tpointer.c, hashtable.c are modules; headers live in include/; tests live in tests/

Dependencies

Needs cmake, ninja, pkg-config, wayland-scanner, plus the runtime libraries wayland-client, wayland-cursor, and xkbcommon.

Configure (from repo root):

cmake -G Ninja -B build

Build:

cmake --build ./build

Run tests:

ctest --test-dir build

Run a single test directly:

./build/test_hashtable

Run the program (requires a running Wayland compositor):

./build/wlgol

compile_commands.json is generated automatically in the build directory because CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS is set in CMakeLists.txt.
The project currently has one CTest target named Hashtable.
