Consider marking as static - Methods that do not access instance data or call instance methods can be marked as static. The compiler will emit non-virtual call sites to static members. So it will prevent checking at runtime for each call whether the current object pointer is non-null. It can be a performance gain.
I installed Qt4 yesterday, just for fun and to see what’s new in this library. It’s normal that even the simplest application needs some additional DLL’s to work. But Qt4 needs at least two files which total size is above 10 MB! What the fuck?

I’ve always wanted to write simple text rendering engine for OpenGL. Many existing libraries aren’t good enough for my expectations. Simple ones were too simple and advanced ones had too much useless functions. Then I tried Freetype and it’s so simple to achieve my goal now. Creating font textures with that library is very easy. I’ll show it in action when I’m finished.
