GLM seems to have changed the names/locations of some header files somewhere between v0.94 and 0.97. For example 0.94 has core/type_mat4x4.hpp while 0.97 has mat4x4.hpp + detail/type_mat4x4.hpp. The 'mat4x4.hpp' seems to be a new file as well. I would prefer to code for the newer release; if we code using the older headers we're only adding unnecessary work in the future if we happen to use the part of the API which changed.
I thought the GLM code may have been included because of problems on some platforms; on Linux the headers are available for installation via the package managers and it would be easy to implement FindGLM.cmake if one doesn't already exist. - Cirilo On Sat, Dec 5, 2015 at 4:52 AM, Mário Luzeiro <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Wayne, > > GLM library is already used by GAL on pcbnew so I adopted it also for > 3d-viewer. > The current version of the lib on kicad is 0.9.4, the official GLM release > is at moment on 0.9.7.1 > > I don't remember why I updated (0.9.8) it in my branch but since I am > using just some basic functions, my code should work with the stable GLM > release and also with the (old) 0.9.4 version on Kicad. > I will check if my code works with the current one used in kicad and let > you and Orson decide if it useful to updated it or not. > > btw, GLM is provide as an header file only library, so only need to have > included the proper path to it (that kicad already have it working) > > Mario > > ________________________________________ > From: Kicad-developers [kicad-developers-bounces+mrluzeiro= > [email protected]] on behalf of Wayne Stambaugh [ > [email protected]] > Sent: 04 December 2015 17:08 > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Kicad-developers] GLM > > Is the GLM library a new dependency for the 3D viewer?
