TwkMath & TwkUtil

[Moritz]

This is a mail I sent to Tweak earlier today. I was told to ask the
question here:

I just checked out GTO from the github repository.
After a day of minor fixes, mostly to get it to compile on 64bit
Linux,
and hacking a CMake-based build system, I now ran into a 'little'
obstace:
plugins/maya/GtoParticleEmitter and plugins/maya/GtoParticleDisplay
seem
to have dependencies on several Tweak-internal headers.

Is you planning to open source this at some point? Or should I look
for
alternatives (after trying to understand what these headers do)? :)

Beers,

Moritz

Hi Moritz, it looks like you just need to replace the calls to
TwkMath::Rand48 with rand() or random() and remove the includes.

I am sorry, for not being precise enough with my subject.
I mean of course all referenced Tweak headers (as hinted at in the
body of my message).

Just of the top of my head, there is plugins/maya/GtoCacheEmitter/
GtoCacheEmitter.cpp | GtoCacheEmitter.h. These files depend on TwkMaya/
Liberation.h and TwkMaya/EmitterNode.h.
What about stuff like that?

I took a look at that code. Unfortunately I don't have maya anymore so
I can't really help too much with this. The TwkMaya headers/code
doesn't look like anything that can't be open sourced. I'll pass the
request to open source along. I don't think it would take much work to
convert any of these classes to pure maya in any case.
