Du kannst SDL nutzen.
void RenderText(std::string message, SDL_Color color, int x, int y, int size) {
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glPushMatrix();
glLoadIdentity();
gluOrtho2D(0, m_Width, 0, m_Height); // m_Width and m_Height is the resolution of window
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glPushMatrix();
glLoadIdentity();
glDisable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
GLuint texture;
glGenTextures(1, &texture);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture);
TTF_Font * font = TTF_OpenFont("pathToFont.ttf", size);
SDL_Surface * sFont = TTF_RenderText_Blended(font, message, color);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, sFont->w, sFont->h, 0, GL_BGRA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, sFont->pixels);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
{
glTexCoord2f(0,0); glVertex2f(x, y);
glTexCoord2f(1,0); glVertex2f(x + sFont->w, y);
glTexCoord2f(1,1); glVertex2f(x + sFont->w, y + sFont->h);
glTexCoord2f(0,1); glVertex2f(x, y + sFont->h);
}
glEnd();
glDisable(GL_BLEND);
glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glPopMatrix();
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glPopMatrix();
glDeleteTextures(1, &texture);
TTF_CloseFont(font);
SDL_FreeSurface(sFont);
}
Aufrufen kannst du die Funktion mit
// Print "Hello World" an Position (5,10) mit einer Fontt-Size von 12px
SDL_Color color = {255, 0, 0, 0}; // Red
RenderText("Hello World", color, 5, 10, 12);
