The iPhone SDK OpenGL ES Application template
Hi all, For a typical iPhone application, after the application is finished launching, the app delegate would then 1) create an instance of UIViewController; 2) ask the view controller for its view which the controller creates on demand; 3) add the view as a subview of the window. I really like this pattern since it adheres the MVC pattern. However, inside the OpenGL ES Application XCode template, the EAGLView is added directly to the window in the nib file, leaving the controller out. My question is: since an EAGLView is a subclass of UIView, is there a particular reason for the template to not follow the common pattern to adhere the beloved MVC? ciao, wils ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Speed? If you're using OpenGL, you're probably developing a game, and are probably going to implement your own UI anyway. The template sets you up and gets out of your way. --Kyle Sluder ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

A transform on OpenGL content will force your rendering onto a slower path on some devices. - how you do it in OpenGL You need to register for UIDevice orientation notifications and use those notifications to rotate your modelview matrix. -- David Duncan Apple DTS Animation and Printing ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
