[sdljava-users] Forget that old patch.. here is a better one ;)

[Chris D. <Des...@nt...>]

Ignore the old patch if you haven't already applied it (I'm pretty sure 
you haven't), as I've significantly worked on a number of areas tonight, 
including adding a new SDLPoint class having the SDLRect class extend 
from it, and the previous changes I made are also rolled into this patch.

Something I saw which might be significant, however, is that all the 
positional stuff we need is actually in javax.vecmath, including 
3DPoint, if you are using that for the OpenGL modelling stuff.(See 
http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/3D/forDevelopers/j3dapi/javax/vecmath/package-summary.html). 
Using this would save us reinventing the wheel, but might incur an extra 
download cost for the user.

I also notice that you have Vector.java which is meant to hold a 
coordiante in 3D space. However, you forget that vectors also have 
length and direction.

By the way, is there an SDLJava IRC channel we could go to to discuss 
stuff? Somewhere on OpenProjects / FreeNode, perhaps? ;) Anyway, my new 
patch is attached to this message, with many modifications. Again, tell 
me if there is anything wrong with it.

Regards,
Chris
