[Pyode-user] GeomTriMesh.getTriangle -> how do i get triangle indexes?

[christopher t. <chr...@gm...>]

Hi there sorry if this seems a redundant question but, i'm in the
process of hacking out an XODE viewer for a project i'm currently
working on. i'm doing this in python with pygame, pyode, and pyopengl.

one good thing is that i can get the AABB vertices (min/max for x,y,z)
so that's a start for my viewer

my next big issue is getting the triangles from a GeomTriMesh object,
unfortunately the sources to pyode and the documentation for pyode
indicate that this could happen getTriangle is available.

unfortunately, it just isn't going to happen until a method for
getting the triangle index values is exposed in the pyode api.

right now, i've tried to iterate over an 'infinite series' (generator)
of indexes for this data but i get a segmentation fault when i
overstep the number of triangle indexes that are actually in the
structure (for a trimesh with 20 triangles, i get a segfault when i
iterate over 0 to 50 via a generator).

i tried to do a try/except clause but, yeah...that doesn't quite stop segfaults.

so is this data going to be provided in the next pyode release?

thanks!
