COW Library (NDS misc)

COW is a cross-platform object-oriented workspace that provides a powerful API for RTTI, serialization, streaming, logging, etc. It also contains a set of storage types(String, List, Array, etc.) and lots of other features. It has been verified to compile for Windows, Linux and the DS.

COW offers a set of features including(but not limitted to):
– RTTI and serialization(XML, later also binary with conversion tools from&to)
– FixedPointMath template class that has conversion accessors for float/int conversion. Should work as fast as the defines from libnds, but is a lot more friendly to use.
– (Serializable) Storage types to replace STL. This saves LOTS of executable size. (array, list, dlist, string)
– (Serializable) Metrics and vector classes with the expected operators.
– A few bit operators.
– Handy ‘tools’ like AutoPtr, platform-independant asserts
– Pattern templates like Singleton and Factory
– A streaming system (filestream and stringstream only atm, filestream is not tested on. This system allows uniform file handling and stream opening (eg. StreamManager::OpenStream(“file://file.txt”, [read/write mode])
– etc.

COW also includes platform-independant unit tests, which help a lot during development. The current project state is beta and although the code design might still change slightly.

N3D (NDS misc)

The N3D project is an attemp to create an abstraction layer for the Nintendo DS 3D hardware. The interface is designed to be very similar with Microsoft’s Direct3D API.

The current version is in a very early state and definitely not stable.
