[Yafray-devel] color implementation, etc.

[Yenar Calentaure]

Hi!

I compiled and tested yafray successfully. I began to revamp your build 
system and i browsed sources a bit. I'm still quite short on time 
(school, other projects, etc. - you know it). I will hopefully get some 
time for yafray in near future.

The full spectrum-oriented rendering is must-have :). I will at least 
try to implement it ;). I have got some books on this topic (and there 
is always public library). Only thing i want from you (to help me with 
this): please move r, g, b members to protected section and use set(r, 
g, b) and constructor with r, g, b args. This will really ease the issue 
for me :). You can make it inline as the performance is probably 
critical. I can even create patch if needed :).

And one more question: is it possible to use 'long long' type (64bit 
fixed point number) for color, and if yes, will it improve performance? 
The fixed-point math is faster AFAIK. You will have to work in mode 
where 1.0 = 2^64, and this is the only complication i see. Just idea.
