But the Radiance source is 3 MB, and Qt 5.6 for Windows is 836 MB. Radiance's dependency list is short and small excepting the Qt requirement for qtrvu. It's kinda nice. Maybe I'm making too much of this. I dunno. On 3/16/16, 2:00 PM, "Randolph M. Fritz" mailto:rmfri...@gmail.com>> wrote: On 3

I don't think I'm gonna touch (or even try to understand) that driver business. On Windows, preview renderers have traditionally always been native reimplementations of rvu. Rob is free to change that, of course... -schorsch Am 2016-03-16 21:43, schrieb Gregory J. Ward: While rvu can (and hi

Well, it took me a while to figure out where the rabbit went, but it looks like the folks at Kitware did build the "qt" driver in the standard way, linking it with rvu albeit in another directory. I don't remember the conversation on this, but it might have something to do with separability and

I think the pipe approach is a good one. A separation of UI and computational functions is probably a good way to organize the code, when it is possible.​ ___ Radiance-dev mailing list Radiance-dev@radiance-online.org http://www.radiance-online.org/mailma

Hi All, It would be great if you guys could pool resources and decide which tool to advance as the standard Radiance picture viewer for Windows. Then, we could re-introduce it to the source tree and keep it up to date in future releases. Likewise for rvu, which I would prefer to be a driver c

The criteria I would apply are: - Which framework is easiest to install for end users? Or maybe better: Which is most likely to be already installed on the system of the average Radiance user, even when not part of the currently running build system? * On unix * on Mac (as far as differ
