Re: Coding for OpenGL "live"

for fun, remove the "no warnings" line. You'll see that you are continually calling the perl complier

I futzed with this for a bit, refactoring the code in sample to just require (|| die) the drawframe.pl code. I added a sub (do draw) around the loose code in drawframe and called it after the require.

Im not thinking you need to recompile several times/sec

Its been a while, but to clarify: `require` is not terribly useful because it will only load the draw code once. The code DOES need to recompile repeatedly in order to incorporate changes to the drawframe code as soon as they are saved to disk. (This being the entire point of live coding.) An enhancement could be made to only recompile the code if the file on disk has been changed since the last frame, but reloading it every frame is simple and effective.	[reply] [d/l]

Maybe you could've provided the code since you refactored it ..	[reply]
