Hi,
the GeometryKit 0.7.5 is now available from CVS on Savannah. The code
should work on Mac OS X and GNUstep. ProjectCenter and ProjectBuilder
are supported directly.
OK, here is where I start bugging you!
Your tuples are mutable. This seems to me to be dangerous. What are
your arguments for using side-effect based methods such as -absolute
and -negate? (I would have expected -(G3Tuple3f *)absolute.) Is this
purely a performance issue?
Performances. Object allocation/deallocation and autorelease pool usage
slows down the execution performance quite a bit.
I agree that there might still be some issues with the interface
though, but I guess they are mostly wrt naming.
