Coin 2.4.0

Up to Product page
Systems in Motion is proud to release v2.4.0 of the Coin 3D graphics library. Coin 2.4.0 is a minor release. It extends the functionality of previous versions of Coin 2.* in upward compatible ways. It also fixes bugs and problems found in releases 2.0.0 through 2.3.0, and includes updates to the documentation. The API and ABI of the library is slightly extended, but not in any way that could conflict with older versions of Coin 2.*.

For additional information about this project, please visit the project page.

Release Notes

State Final release
License GPL and Coin Professional Edition License
Released 2005/04/13

This release was originally intended as a micro release (bugfix release), but certain changes we had done to the API for optimization purposes meant a minor release had to be released - the alternative was to roll back those changes, which would most likely introduce bugs and would mean a significant performance degradation

You will therefore not find much new functionality in this release - focus has been mostly on bugfixes and some on optimization.

New features:

- completely Cygwin-less build setup for MS Windows / Visual Studio:

- Visual Studio 6 project file in build/msvc6/

- Visual Studio .NET 2003 solution in build/msvc7/

- some minor API additions for internal optimization purposes

Otimizations:

- render traversal code improvements

- file i/o

Bugfixes:

- too many to mention; see ChangeLog
