Thanks for the clarification. So this would imply that example_app/uc2_graphics
requires api/ttfont.{cpp,h}. In which case, shouldn't
samples/example_app/Makefile be amended to build ttffont.o and then link
against it. In other words, not including it in libboinc_graphics2.a make sense
so as to not add an unnecessary dependency, but uc2_graphics does have that
dependency (because it displays CPU time and credit info IIRC).

Hi David,
Please see <http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/GraphicsApi#Displayingtext>
If you want your graphics application to display text, you must add the files
api/ttfont.cpp and api/ttfont.h to your application yourself. They are not
included in the basic library build because they require linking with the
FreeType2 and FTGL libraries, and we don't want to require those libraries for
screen savers which don't display text.
Cheers,
--Charlie
