There only a prerelease of RiCPP yet, since there are still a lot
of things to do. Nevertheless, I've compiled it with Visual C++ 6.0
for a look:
You can download the recent source files from [sourceforge.net] using SVN: [RiCPP SVN pages].
A redesign (subtree ricpp2) can be found in the SVN pages, the redesign is developed currently on Win32 (Visual Studio 2005/2008 Express) and
MacOS 10 (XCode3), Linux may be follow. Since there are major changes by now, the projects may not compile.

Here is a snapshot of the RIB previewer demo with some loaded
RIB files:
The previewer uses RiReadArchive() of the glrenderer.dll
library for OpenGL. The quality is compareable to the program rgl that came
with the BMRT.

Included Programs in ricpp20050610a.zip
|
|
|
The included programs (In the 'progs' subdirectory of
'ricpp20050610a.zip') are only tests for the ricpp library and not as useful. They
work under Windows NT/2000/XP.
| RibPreview.exe |
- |
Uses RiCPP to load RIB files. You can use
the menu item File»Render to call an external renderer
('batches\renderprev.bat' is called, Aqsis is default).
The keys: 'r', 'c'
to change the z position, 'v', 't' (y position),
'f', 'g' (x position),
'z' to rotate around the z axis, 'y' (y axis),
'x' (x axis), '+' increases step size for moving,
'-' decreases step size and 'i' to reset
the transformation matrix and step size. This works only if there is no
camera transformation in the RIB file. |
| RibLoader.exe |
- |
Uses RiCPP to load RIB files, test with
single document interface. |
| ricpptest.exe |
- |
Test program for the RiCPP library. You
can click with the left mouse button to change the screen and with the
right mouse button to call 'batches\render.bat' to render the current
window with an external renderer (Aqsis is default). It uses some RIB
entity files out of the 'progs\Ribs' subdirectory. |
| ribtest.exe |
- |
Command line utility, reads a rib file and prints rib errors to stdout. |
There are a few loadable RIB samples (mostly by Scott Iverson,
hermite.rib uses data from Daniel McCoy) in the 'ribsamples'
subdirectory. The C++ includes and the compiled dynamic link libraries
in can be found in 'ricpplib'. The static library 'librendererloader.lib'
contains objects to load the renderers like plugins at run time.
