9.9 Continuing to dissect OpenFX

This chapter has provided the major clues th at should let you get to grips with

the OpenFX program code and follow the fine detail of algorithm implemen-

tation that we don’t have the space to cover her e in great, or even modest,

detail. OpenFX is a fully practical code and implements most of the algorithms

discussed in the rest of this book. It even uses the OpenGL coding concepts of

chapter 7. The code presents a complete picture of how to do it in practice—and

remember, this 3D package probably has the shortest and most compact code of

any 3D application program of compar ...
