Hello,
I just wanted to throw in a few words about XYPlot and NSValueArray.
I'm glad to see there is an active interest in XYPlot. I essentially
started from scratch in rewriting it for OpenStep/Cocoa. The idea was
to provide an object for fast easy 2d plotting that could be easily
expanded. There are still a number of things that remain to be
implemented (Log scales, data point markers, etc), but I use it daily
and it serves my purposes. I'm sure there are many ways it can be
enhanced and expanded and I'm glad to release the source to the public
domain. I would hope that any new developments are released as open
source with a BSD style license. I don't want to have to release the
source code of my projects in order to use any new XYPlot developments
(as a GNU style license may require).
NSValueArray has been very useful for my simulation work. It provides
an easy way to access a bunch of bytes as an NSArray of NSValues. I
did change the archiving to be more efficient, so it is no longer in an
identical format to NSArray. I didn't really prepare the source for
distribution, so some comments may be out-of-date. Oh, and
NSValueArray should certainly use a different prefix... Again, this
wasn't really prepped for public consumption.
I look forward to what emerges and will be glad to help where I'm able.
Cheers,
Sean
