| 18 | * \section future-refactoring Refactoring the code
|
|---|
| 19 | *
|
|---|
| 20 | * Here is a list of what pieces of the code should be refactored to make them
|
|---|
| 21 | * easier to use:
|
|---|
| 22 | * - Tesselation and related classes: Especially, the removing and adding of
|
|---|
| 23 | * nodes is not fully (and correctly) implemented, see the regression tests
|
|---|
| 24 | * on convex(!) envelopes (non-convex are working).
|
|---|
| 25 | * - all internal, non-atom related information of FormatParser's should be
|
|---|
| 26 | * stored in FormatParserParameters (e.g. AtomData line of tremolo)
|
|---|
| 27 | *
|
|---|
| 28 | * \section future-extension Extending the code
|
|---|
| 29 | *
|
|---|
| 30 | * Here the list of what should be implemented to make the code more powerful
|
|---|
| 31 | * and just makes sense given the current constructs.
|
|---|
| 32 | * - BondGraph should be updataeable. As above it should listen the Worlds'
|
|---|
| 33 | * notifications and so on (also Cachable ...)
|
|---|
| 34 | * - Tesselation should be a Shape: Such that it can be used for Fillings.
|
|---|
| 35 | * - Tesselation should be loadable/storable from/to file: One the one hand
|
|---|
| 36 | * this could mean \ref serialization but rather \b .3ds or another file
|
|---|
| 37 | * format such that structures can filled with some external program and
|
|---|
| 38 | * filled with a certain algorithm later-on.
|
|---|
| 39 | * - Tesselation: Extend such that the created surface can be pushed away from
|
|---|
| 40 | * the atoms to resemble the molecular surface (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_surface)
|
|---|
| 41 | * - all Actions regarding Filling: Filling should be generalized as to get a
|
|---|
| 42 | * shape and vector of atoms and to do something with it. Especially, not a
|
|---|
| 43 | * new Action but a token that just tells how to fill and a factory pattern
|
|---|
| 44 | * behind it that spits out the algorithm how to do it.
|
|---|
| 45 | * - molecule's should also contain the bounding box. This would allow to use
|
|---|
| 46 | * them as crystallic unit cells.
