ofxHaxademic

A personal toolkit for openframeworks projects

TO BUILD

• AppStore
  • AppStoreDistributed w/WebSockets
• General recent structure of Processing apps?
• How to make objects like DebugView globally-accessible?
  • Always use something like PAppletHax?
  • Or use singletons or static instances? In this case, is there an ofxHaxademic initializer that instantiate everything?
• DrawUtil / ImageUtil
• App properties like Processing?
• Renderer for video output
• Shader Filters & textures
• Robot-style screensaver killer
• Crash monitor / dashboard poster
• Easing/Linear Float objects & Penner equations
• Projection mapping tools & UI controls - https://github.com/julapy/ofxQuadWarp
• 1080p webcam - can it be threaded? currently drags down app framerate
• Video player @ 4k [NOT GOOD! Codecs?]

TO FIGURE OUT

• Fastest method of copying pixels between FBOs?
• c++ overlap with fields between classes.. two objects with the same property/function name will cause an error?!
• Change code while running

  • svgtiny.lib(svgtiny.obj) : MSIL .netmodule or module compiled with /GL found; restarting link with /LTCG; add /LTCG to the link command line to improve linker performance

  • LINK : warning LNK4075 : ignoring '/INCREMENTAL' due to '/LTCG' specification

• Visual Studio Key commands
• How to run multiple apps within a project - HaxBaseApp?
• How to call out to shell scripts
• Precompiled headers?

WHAT CAN OFX DO THAT JAVA CAN'T?

• Fancy face tracking
• YOLO object detection
• Openpose?
• Embed a modern browser?
• Float 32 texture out of the box
• Webcams with higher resolutions. 640x480 seems to be the max for Processing??

WHAT STAYS IN JAVA FOR NOW

• WebSocket server
• Web Server & internet access stuff
• FileWatcher
• Email (sendgrid)
• Printing

General notes:

• Shaders don't work without a fancier OpenGL setup:

ofGLWindowSettings settings;
settings.setGLVersion(3, 2);
settings.setSize(1024, 768);
ofCreateWindow(settings);

• Normalized shader coordinates are not default. To use them, your texture uniform must be sampler2D instead of sampler2DRect, which would be used if ofDisableArbTex(); isn't called before textures are created.
