Asg 4: Draw Lines of Points

Objectives

Assignment

1. Using the C++ code from Assignment 02 and Assignment 03 use the code where point_t objects are stored on a std::vector<point_t* > list (vector) of pointers, then iterate through that list to draw a sequence of lines using OpenGL.

Details

1. Your OpenGL code should set up a projection matrix with gluOrtho2D(0.0,w,0.0,h);
2. Your OpenGL code should just use an identity matrix for the modelview matrix, i.e., glLoadIdentity();

Requirements

1. Make sure to create a new point_t* each time data is read in (this gets added to the list)
2. Make sure that you properly delete the list of points by deleteing each point pointer as you erase each one from the list (i.e., when the program exits)

Input

1. The pointdata.txt file used to test the above program is:

   15 14
   600 320
   104 29
   19 78
   450 321
   	

Output

1. Expected output with the above input file is:

   *** printing list
   15.00, 14.00
   600.00, 320.00
   104.00, 29.00
   19.00, 78.00
   450.00, 321.00
   	

   and a window showing something like what appears below:

   

Supplemental

1. Here is a Makefile that you can use to compile the project:

   .SUFFIXES: .c .o .cpp .cc .cxx .C
   
   UNAME = $(shell uname)
   PLATFORM = $(shell uname -p)
   
   CC = g++
   COPTS = -g -Wall
   
   INCDIR =
   LIBDIR =
   
   ifeq ("$(shell uname)", "Linux")
   INC = \
     -I/usr/lib/glut-3.7/include
   LIBDIR = \
     -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/lib/glut-3.7/lib/glut
   LIBS = \
     -lglut -lGLU -lGL -lXmu -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm
   else
   ifeq ("$(shell uname)", "Darwin")
   LIBS = \
     -framework OpenGL -framework GLUT -framework Foundation -lstdc++
   endif
   endif
   
   .c.o:
   	$(CC) -c $(INCDIR) $(COPTS) -o $@ $<
   
   .cpp.o:
   	$(CC) -c $(INCDIR) $(COPTS) -o $@ $<
   
   all : main
   
   OBJECTS = \
   point.o
   
   main : $(OBJECTS) main.o
   	$(CC) -o $@ $(INCDIR) $(COPTS) $(OBJECTS) $@.o $(LIBDIR) $(LIBS)
   
   point.o: point.h point.cpp
   
   clean :
   	rm -f *.o
   	rm -rf main
   	

Turn in

1. A README file containing
   1. Course id--section no
   2. Name
   3. Brief solution description (e.g., program design, description of algorithm, etc., however appropriate).
   4. Lessons learned, identified interesting features of your program
   5. Any special usage instructions
2. Makefile
3. source code (.h headers and .cpp source)
4. object code (do a make clean before tar)
