Import .obj files in C++ version of VTS browser

[shrikant-panchal]

I observed that the vts-browser-js allows users to import models in .obj format using the ModelOBJ library.
Could you please suggest, which library/API should be used to import the model in vts-browser-minimal-cpp?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Simple OBJ models can be loaded in vts-browser-cpp.

The GpuMeshSpec in the vts-browser library has constructor that parses an obj from memory buffer:

vts-browser-cpp/browser/src/vts-libbrowser/include/vts-browser/resources.hpp

Line 154 in c0e8fac

explicit GpuMeshSpec(const Buffer &buffer); // decode obj file

Be warned, this function can parse simple OBJ files only.

The Mesh class in vts-renderer library can load it into gpu memory:

vts-browser-cpp/browser/src/vts-librenderer/include/vts-renderer/classes.hpp

Line 133 in c0e8fac

void load(ResourceInfo &info, GpuMeshSpec &spec,
