A very simple application that highlights how De-Casteljau's algorithm works by showing the intermediate lines used by the algorithm to calculate the resulting bezier curve.
In order to compile this demo, you need to have:
- CMake 3.2.2 or a newer version (Note: actually even much older versions like CMake-2.8 also work and if you really need to use an older version simply update the
cmake_minimum_required
property in your CMake file accordingly). - Qt-5.7 or a newer version.
- A C++ Compiler with C++-14 support, such as GCC-4.9 or newer.
- Make sure the above mentioned requirements are met.
- Clone the repository or download an archive and unpack it, then change into the directory.
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ../
$ make
The resulting executable can then be launched by issuing ./src/de\_casteljau\_demo
inside the build directory. If CMake fails to find Qt, you may use the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
environment variable to help cmake locate the correct version of Qt. Running CMake would then look like this: $ CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="<path-to-the-Qt5.7-cmake-directory>" cmake ..
.
The application is released under the terms of the GPLv3 or any later edition.
