OpenGL rendering of primitives #2

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What might make an interesting contribution is a OGL viewer for the CGAL 
primitives. Is porting the QT viewer of the CGAL project an ambition of this 
project? I'd be interested in helping out...

They are so many viewers in Python and Java, I don't see the point of providing 
one dedicated to CGAL. Usually people are used to one tool they like and they 
don't want to switch to something that will be not as good.

Well, working with geometry it helps a lot to be able to *see* what you're 
working on... 
CGAL comes with a QT app that is able to render the geometry / most of the 
primitives.
Would be interesting to port / adapt that, don't you think?

What I meant is that this should be done directly in the target language for a 
display framework chosen. I don't see how we could provide something that would 
fit the need of all usersf.
