aiObjectiveC 1.0

Asset Importer (assimp) OpenGL rendering library in Objective C. <br /><br />aiObjectiveC is an Asset Importer renderer written in OpenGL, using Objective-C. It initializes OpenGL-friendly data structures based on data imported using Assimp and lets you render it in a simple fashion.<br /><br />It also adds categories to Cocoa classes to interface with Assimp's utility classes. (Currently only +[NSString stringWithAIString:])<br /><br />Ideally, aiObjectiveC should support every feature that is exposed from Assimp, but in practice this isn't the case. This is due to two reasons:<br /> 1. Time constraints: I will be incrementally adding features that I need, and I will skip features I don't use.<br /> 2. Context-sensitive features: Not all features of assimp are cleary defined - some of them depend on the artist / developer and where they are being used. Different people assign different values to some of these fields.<br /><br />In the second case, I will either not implement a feature, or I will implement it in the way I will be using it - which might not match your use-case.<br /><br />If you find a feature missing in aiObjectiveC, and implement it yourself, I'll gladly take a look at your patch - and probably add it to the repository. Let me know!<br /><br />Finally, aiObjectiveC is meant as a starting ground for people wanting to write OpenGL apps for Mac / iOS that leverage assimp. You might not want to use my library verbatim, but hopefully it'll help you get started!<br /><br />This is currently considered a prototype, and a C++ API based on this will probably be developed after it stabilizes a bit. This is in order to have a platform-independent way of working with assimp and OpenGL.
