\mainpage OpenGL Mathematics
|
|
|
|
OpenGL Mathematics (GLM) is a C++ mathematics library for graphics software based on the OpenGL Shading Language (GLSL) specification.
|
|
|
|
GLM provides classes and functions designed and implemented with the same naming conventions and functionalities than GLSL so that when a programmer knows GLSL, he knows GLM as well which makes it really easy to use.
|
|
|
|
This project isn't limited by GLSL features. An extension system, based on the GLSL extension conventions, provides extended capabilities: matrix transformations, quaternions, half-based types, random numbers, etc...
|
|
|
|
This library works perfectly with OpenGL but it also ensures interoperability with other third party libraries and SDK. It is a good candidate for software rendering (Raytracing / Rasterisation), image processing, physic simulations and any context that requires a simple and convenient mathematics library.
|
|
|
|
GLM is written as a platform independent library with no dependence and officially supports the following compilers:
|
|
1. Clang 2.0 and higher
|
|
2. CUDA 3.0 and higher
|
|
3. GCC 3.4 and higher
|
|
4. LLVM 2.3 through GCC 4.2 front-end and higher
|
|
5. Visual Studio 2005 and higher
|
|
|
|
\note The Doxygen-generated documentation will often state that a type or function
|
|
is defined in a namespace that is a child of the \link glm glm \endlink namespace.
|
|
Please ignore this; All publicly available types and functions can be accessed as a direct children
|
|
of the glm namespace.
