Extract a model from VRML-file

[Valeri Sokolov]

Hello.

I have the VRML-file with a model inside. This model is presented by
its verteces, triangles and normals. Mapping to the texture is
presented too. There is no any other thing in that file.

I need to extract this model and use it in a C program as the set of
verteces, triangles and normals with the mapping to the texture
image.

What is an easy way to do it?

I think about two ways:

(1) Use some library to load model into my C-program. In this case I
want to know about name of such library and some howto on it.

(2) Use some external tool to convert VRML into more friendly format.
In this case I want to know about name of such tool.

Thank you.

OpenVRML, cybergarage...

Currently i try to add a "export to C++" function to white_dune, but it
is not usefull/ready yet 8-(

mjbWorld has a "export to C++" function, but i don't know if the older
problems are now fixed 8-(

white_dune can convert meshes to the AC3D b fileformat, which can be read
by blender. Blender has a lot of other exporters.

I've taken a look on openvrml, but thought that it is too complicated
to use for such simple task that i have.
Cybergarage seems to be more frindly for me))) Thank you..

I did not understand what you meen when you talk about "export to C+
+".

That whould be great =) I'll try this way, if i fail with cybergarage.

Thank you for the good answer.

Well, you take a VRML/X3DV file and export a C++ source file with the
informations of the VRML/X3D scenegraph and it's nodes.
Beside the C++ source file there is also the need for functions, e.g.
to draw the VRML/X3D scenegraph.

In principle, it is a partitial, limited VRML/X3DV to C++ compiler.
