Listing 8.1. Adding text.h to game.h.

Next, we create a pointer to a Text object. In this example, we named the pointer

fontCK (Listing 8.2). In the class constructor in threeCs.cpp, we create a new Text

object (Listing 8.3). We delete the Text object in the destructor (Listing 8.4). In our ini-

tialize function, we call the Text object’s initialize function. FONT_IMAGE is dened

in constants.h (Listing 8.5). We also need to add the appropriate calls to deal with a lost

graphics device (Listing 8.6). Printing text is typically done inside the render function of

the main Game ...
