I had to close that post before I could mention where all that discussion
was going. Briefly, I have been trying from the start to design
BrickDraw3D's C++ classes to separate geometry and graphics from the
application framework (in this case PowerPlant.)
It should be possible to complete this process, producing a layer which can
be interfaced to Cocoa or some other interesting application framework.
I don't want to say this is easy, and it is surely a way off because
abstracting the 3D math that should be shared between OpenGL and QuickDraw3D
is not easy and is holding back the OpenGL rendering. Right now I am working
on the camera matrices, which is some awful code I wrote in 1997.

Nor are there memory-bounds checker tools or any of the other niceties we take for granted elsewhere. CodeWarrior (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
