This is to announce an official archive of Dore', and related materials.
Dore' (Dynamic Object Rendering Environment) is a portable, freely
available 3D graphics API. At present, it has interfaces/drivers for:
X11
PEX
IrisGL
OpenGL
Postscript
and others.
It will run on most unix systems, and is known to run on
Linux
FreeBSD
Solaris 2.3
NetBSD 1.0
It has also been ported to Windows NT 3.5.
It has a _tonne_ of excellent documentation!
The official archive site is on sunsite.unc.edu, URL:
ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/packages/development/graphics/Dore.
At present, the archive contains little more that the initial 6.0
release of Dore' (gzip'd at 3.9MB) and the release announcements from
Kubota Graphics. If you have a submission, please place it in
.../incoming, along with a descriptive read-me file.
Soon to be coming:
- a patch set to make builds easier.
Please contact me if you are a user of Dore', and/or with projects,
bug-reports, and/or patches. We should try to avoid conflicting or
duplicating efforts. When there is enough interest, we can see about
starting a mailing list.
Projects being worked on/to be worked on, at present, are:
- further build patches (bdealwis@Newbridge.COM)
- C++ wrappers (bdealwis@Newbridge.COM)
Thanks go to:
- Jonathan Magid <jem@shoop.oit.unc.edu> for allowing sunsite to be the
Dore' archive site.
- Kubota Graphics Corp for making Dore' available to the public.
Please contact me for further information.
