Understanding the Different Parts of Cube.cxx
The embedded comments in Example B-1 call out the different functional parts of
cube.cxx, which include:
• Include statements and global method declarations.
• Create a window in which the application runs and with which a user can interact
with the application. For more information, see Chapter 12, “User Interface
Mechanisms.”
• Instantiate and setup a camera. For more information, see Chapter 9, “Viewing the
Scene.”
• Create a scene graph. For more information, see Chapter 4, “Scene Graph Nodes.”
• Draw and rotate the cubes represented by the data in the scene graph. For more
information, see Chapter 6, “Placing Shapes in a Scene.”
