While I'm far from a C++ wiz, I've ported my MathViz project to C++Builder XE2.
Here's my EDN article, "Visualizing mathematical functions by generating custom meshes using FireMonkey and C++".
Enjoy!...
That was a really good week! RAD Studio XE2 is such an incredible release that I keep travelling and showing Delphi and FireMonkey to developers around Europe.
On Tuesday, I have been to Olomouc in Moravia in Czech Republic. There were close to 120 enthusiastic Delphi programmers gathered. Everybody liked the new FireMonkey architecture and possibilities for building great looking native apps for Windows, Mac and iOS from the same source code!

I'm only posting this because a lot of folks have been asking for it.
This demo is provided as-is with no guarantees of working on any device whatsoever.

You have been warned. It's by no means complete. Not even tested since 10/11/2011 - not tested on iOS 5.0 or 5.1. Last I tested it was on 4.3 I think.
I'll replace it when I get time to finish it. Feel free to send me back a 10x better version.
BTW - you *have* to hack FMX_Platform_iOS.pas and...
I'm back from Warsaw where I have been presenting Delphi XE2 and FireMonkey to Polish developers. In fact it was the third event in Warsaw about Delphi and FireMonkey since the release of RAD Studio XE2 back in September 2011!
That's amazing to watch happy faces of Delphi developers seeing all the great "visually stunning" FireMonkey HD and 3D demos, including excellent "Gallery 3D" components presented a while ago by JT on YouTube.
Next week I'm off for one week of skiing in Austria ...

There's a missing call to MatrixChanged(Self) in TCamera.SetTarget. Without this second line, setting the Target does nothing.
procedure TCamera.SetTarget(const Value: TControl3D);
begin
FTarget := Value;
MatrixChanged(Self);
end;
This fix is required for my upcoming Kepler System demo....
Today is Valentine's Day. For Delphi programmers and supporters this is the Delphi Birthday. Delphi just turned 17. I'm wondering how the next one is going to look like;-)
I had a pleasure and the privilege to present live during the "Delphi Birthday Webinar" event just a moment ago and promised online to publish the source code of the FireMonkey Molecule Viewer demo. That's currently work in progress, so please do not consider this as a finished viewer, but you can use as a starting point fo...
