| Welcome to using Phidgets with C! By using C, you will have access to the complete Phidget22 API, including events.
| |
| | |
| Code::Blocks is a free, open source cross-platform IDE that can be used for C and C++.

| ==Setting up a New Project==
| |
| When you are building a project from scratch, or adding Phidget functionality to an existing project, you'll need to configure your development environment to properly link the Phidget C library.
| |
| | |
| To start, open Code::Blocks, and navigate to Settings -> Compiler... as shown in the image below:
| |
| | |
| [[Image:C_codeblocks_settings.png|link=|center]] | |
| | |
| | |
| From the Global compiler settings screen, navigate to Search directories -> Compiler and add the following directory:
| |
| *C:\Program Files\Phidgets\Phidget22
| |
| | |
| [[Image:C_codeblocks_compiler.PNG|link=|center]]
| |
| | |
| | |
| Next, select Search directories -> Linker and add the following directory:
| |
| *C:\Program Files\Phidgets\Phidget22\x86
| |
| | |
| [[Image:C_codeblocks_linker.PNG|link=|center]]
| |
| | |
| | |
| From the Global compiler settings screen, navigate to Linker settings and add the following line:
| |
| *phidget22
| |
| | |
| [[Image:C_codeblocks_libraries.PNG|link=|center]]
| |
| | |
| | |
| Next, create a new Console Application project, as follows:
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| | |
| Name your project, and finish creating the project.
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| | |
| Now your project is created, and you can open the generated main.c to begin coding.
| |
| | |
| To include the Phidget C library, add the following line to your code:
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang='C'>
| |
| #include <phidget22.h>
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| | |
| Your project now has access to the Phidget libraries.
| |
| | |
| ==Using the Code Samples==
| |
| Now that you have configured a project to use Phidgets, you can copy the code sample from the [{{server}}/?view=code_samples&lang=C Code Samples] page into your project, and run it.
