- Title: GLE Tubing and Extrusion Library
- Version: 2.2.4
- Entered-date: 12JAN96
- Description: GLE is a library package of C functions that draw
- extruded surfaces, including surfaces of revolution,
- sweeps, tubes, polycones, polycylinders and helicoids.
- Generically, the extruded surface is specified with a
- 2D polyline that is extruded along a 3D path. A local
- coordinate system allows for additional flexibility in
- the primitives drawn. Extrusions may be texture mapped
- in a variety of ways. The GLE library generates 3D
- triangle coordinates, lighting normal vectors and
- texture coordinates as output. GLE uses the GL or
- OpenGL API's to perform the actual rendering.
- Keywords: graphics surface sweep tube extrude polycone polycylinder OpenGL
