This book is about graphics programming using Open GL. It presents both a programming course that emphasizes object-oriented thinking and a well-documented, versatile, and robust geometry library. All the source code is provided on the accompanying diskette so that readers may use and study the library without having to worry too much about their implementation. All of the relevant geometry is covered in depth to give readers a good understanding of the background to this topic. Many of the most common intersection problems and measuring tasks (both planar and spatial) are covered. The authors discuss the creation of arbitrary geometric objects and the use of Boolean operations to create more general solid objects. As a result, all those looking for an in-depth introduction to graphics programming will find this a solid, hands-on text.
This book is about graphics programming based on OPENGL. The program ming language is C++. The programs will run under various operating systems, among them WINDOWS 9x, ALPHA-STATIONS (Digital workstations) and SILI CON GRAPHICS workstations. Hardware is used if accessible. The book provides a graphics library. This library is based on OPENGL and expands the elemen tary routines. Thus, the reader is enabled to realize direct geometrical thinking without having to care much about implementation. The enclosed modules provide the reader with solutions for: - The most common intersection problems and measuring tasks of both pla nar and spatial geometry. - The creation ofarbitrary geometric objects, e.g., by means ofdifferent kinds of "sweeping." - The creation of the most general solids by means of Boolean operations (intersection, union, and complements of solid polyhedra). The book presents: - A well documented, versatile, and robust geometry library. The reader can use it very easily and expand it in any way he/she likes. vi Preface - A programming course that provides a deeper insight into object-oriented thinking and programming.It contains an introduction to C++ (for begin ners and intermediate programmers) that is influenced by the experience gained from thousands of programming hours (which may even be useful to experienced programmers).
