IconFontCppHeaders

https://github.com/juliettef/IconFontCppHeaders

C++11 and C89 headers and C# classes for icon fonts Font Awesome, Fork Awesome, Google Material Design icons, Material Design Icons, Kenney game icons and Ionicons.

A set of header files and classes for using icon fonts in C, C++ and C#, along with the python generator used to create the files.

Each header contains defines for one font, with each icon code point defined as ICON_*, along with the min and max code points for font loading purposes.

Font Awesome 5 notes

Font Awesome 5 splits the different styles of icons into different font files: solid, regular and brands

  • identical font codepoints for styles solid and regular (regular is a subset of solid) icon font file;
  • a different set of codepoints for style brands icon font file

We have put the brands into a different header file, as the brands codepoints are mixed with the standard icons' so the fonts cannot easily be used without switching between the two fonts in your code.

The codepoints only cover the free fonts.

Example Code

Using dear imgui as an example UI library:

    
    #include "IconsFontAwesome5.h"
    
    ImGuiIO& io = ImGui::GetIO();
    io.Fonts->AddFontDefault();
     
    // merge in icons from Font Awesome
    static const ImWchar icons_ranges[] = { ICON_MIN_FA, ICON_MAX_FA, 0 };
    ImFontConfig icons_config; icons_config.MergeMode = true; icons_config.PixelSnapH = true;
    io.Fonts->AddFontFromFileTTF( FONT_ICON_FILE_NAME_FAS, 16.0f, &icons_config, icons_ranges );
    // use FONT_ICON_FILE_NAME_FAR if you want regular instead of solid
    
    // in an imgui window somewhere...
    ImGui::Text( ICON_FA_PAINT_BRUSH "  Paint" );    // use string literal concatenation
    // outputs a paint brush icon and 'Paint' as a string.

Projects using the font icon header files
