Detailed Description

template<class T, class S>
class gl_cylinder< T, S >

A class to keep track of cylinders ready for display using OpenGL.

This file defines a gl_cylinder class designed to hold values computed from cylinders which are convenient for display with OpenGL. It is defined as a template class where the type T is for coordinates and the type S is for sizes. These types are actually used only for specifying types of cylinders. The coordinates within gl_cylinder are all doubles. This means that it might be more reasonable to make gl_cylinder be a non-template class and provide some template functions to convert between cylinder and gl_cylinder.

Todo:

Convert gl_cylinder to a non-template class.
