| Standard Template Library Programmer's
Guide |
STL home page at SGI. "The Standard Template
Library, or STL, is a C++ library of container classes, algorithms, and iterators; it
provides many of the basic algorithms and data structures of computer science. The STL is
a generic library, meaning that its components are heavily parameterized: almost every
component in the STL is a template." C++ source code (v3.13) STL.zip (v3.13) (185k). Documentaion STL_doc.zip (844k). |

"A C++ Standard Template Library extension.
The C++ Standard Template Library provides templates that define generic container
and iterator classes. The software described here extends the Standard Template Library by
adding template classes that define views." C++ source code views.zip (12.6k). |

C & C++ source code from the excellent Graphics Gems series of books. |
| Collision Detection Packages
Available from UNC Computer Science |
A summary of the uses and differences between RAPID, V-COLLIDE, and I-COLLIDE. |
| RAPID Home Page |
"RAPID is a robust and accurate polygon
interference detection library for large environments composed of unstructured
models." The RAPID
library is applicable to polygon soups. C++ source code (ported from C) RAPID_v2_01.tar.gz
(23.5k). Used by V-Collide. |
| V-Collide
Home Page |
V-Collide is a collision detection library for
large environments. It is designed to operate on large numbers of polygonal objects. It
makes no assumptions about input structure and works on arbitrary models, also known as
"polygon soups". C++ source code VCOLLIDE_1_1.ZIP
(1.57M). RAPID v2.0 is
included in this archive (a later version is available above). |
| I_COLLIDE Home Page |
"I_COLLIDE is an interactive and exact
collision detection library for large environments composed of convex polyhedra."
C source code I_COLLIDE_1.2.ZIP
(220k). |
| Qhull
Home Page |
"Qhull computes convex hulls, Delaunay
triangulations, halfspace intersections about a point, Voronoi diagrams, furthest-site
Delaunay triangulations, and furthest-site Voronoi diagrams. It runs in 2-d, 3-d, 4-d, and
higher dimensions." C source code Qhull2-6.zip (for Windows)
(560k). Used by V-Clip. |
| V-Clip Home Page |
"The Voronoi Clip, or V-Clip,
algorithm is a low-level collision detection algorithm for polyhedral objects. The V-Clip
library is a C++ implementation of this algorithm, with facilities for constructing and
manipulating geometries." C++ source code vclip_1.0.tar.gz
(298k). Needs Qhull to handle
non-convex polyhedra. Tech
report describing the V-Clip algorithm. User's Manual for the V-Clip
library. |
| Multibody Dynamics Package
Home Page |
"A multibody is a linked structure
comprising individual rigid bodies, called links, connected by joints. This package
computes the motion of multibodies, determined by the laws of physics. It does not perform
collision detection, but may be integrated with various collision detection
algorithms." C++ source code multibodyDynamics_1.01.tar.gz
(123k). |
| A Generic Polygon Clipping
Library |
"A C library implementation of a new polygon
clipping algorithm. The techniques used are descended from Vatti's polygon clipping
method.. Subject and clip polygons may be convex or concave, self-intersecting, contain
holes, or be comprised of several separate contours." C source code gpc230.zip (466k). |
| TINA Algorithm Development
Libraries |
"TINA provides a hierarchy of image
processing, display and interactive manipulation modules specifically designed for the
recovery and representation of the 2D and 3D geometrical primitives required for the
development and evaluation of computer vision systems. Beneath this is an extensive
mathematics library for the manipulation of image and geometric data structures."
C source code tina_source.tar.gz
(1.5M). |
| libJPEG |
FTP directory ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg "Independent
JPEG Group's free JPEG software. This package contains C software to implement JPEG
image compression and decompression." C source code and documentation jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz (599k). |
| libPNG
Home Page |
"The Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format
was designed to replace the older and simpler GIF format and, to some extent, the much
more complex TIFF format." C source code lpng103.zip (260k). Documentation page. Needs zlib for decompression routines. |
| zlib
Home Page |
Home page of this very useful library of
compression tools. C source code zlib.zip (213k). Documentation page. |
| libDES |
FTP directory ftp.psy.uq.oz.au/pub/Crypto/DES/.
C source code library for the government encryption/decryption standard DES. |

Shareware/freeware and commercial libraries are listed. |
| 3Dgpl Home Page |
"3Dgpl is a 3D Graphics, Portable Library
which provides basic set of tools for writing 3D applications, games for instance. Besides
the source code, it also includes a nine chapter reference text on 3D graphics enabling to
both learn the subject from scratch or consult a specific topic." C source code
and postscript documentation 3Dgpl2.zip
(1.91M) |
| Linux/libs/graphics |
HTTP accessible FTP directory sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/libs/graphics.
Some good stuff here. Mostly Linux and SVGA related. C source code to
read/write GIF files libungif-4.1.0.tar.gz
(294k), TIFF files libtiff-3.3l1.tar.gz
(221k). C++ library for 3D graphics, shading, etc. tagl22.tgz (1.04M) |
