SOURCE CODE AVAILABILITY
Three source code packages are available:
The source code for the QuikGrid grid generation
and contouring source code as free software
has been available for quite some time under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as
published by the Free Software Foundation ( http://www.gnu.org).
This source code is available here (qgsorc05.zip: 30k).
The files in this .zip file contain the C++ source code for
the grid generator (called xpand) and contouring routine
(called contour). Also included is a small demo program that
demonstrates the use of the functions by generating a small
grid and contouring a contour line. I have compiled and tested
this code using Borland C++ under MS Windows and also under
UNIX (Linux). I have also had reports that it compiles and
works correctly using Microsoft VC. Version 2 reflects changes
to allow it to run under UNIX. See the readme file for full
details. Version 3 includes a description of the algorithm in
the readme file. Version 4 corrects a bug in the grid
generation code. Version 5 removes a comment from the
readme.txt file that might be interpreted as limiting the
scope of the Lesser General Public License.
Download this source file if you are only interested in the
grid generation code and/or the contouring code. It has been
compiled and used on a greater variety of compilers than the
full source code to QuikGrid.
A Python implementation is available at https://github.com/ninowalker/quikgrid
and http://code.google.com/p/quikgrid
.
The core Xpand class and its dependencies are available for C#
at https://github.com/ChristopherTotty/QuikGridCSharp.
Version 3 of the full source code for the entire QuikGrid
program, Version 5.4, is now available under the terms
of the GNU General Public License.
The changes between Version 2 and Version 3 of the source
code are relatively slight. They reflect the changes to
correct the problem with the default startup menu detailed here and documentation changes for the
Help file and "About" box to reflect the phasing out of the
perspectiveedge web site.
This source code is available here (qgsorcall03: 440k).
The files in this .zip file include the C++ code, a copy of
the Borland IDE file (quikgrid.ide) the help file
documentation and my internals
documentation. This was implemented and has been
maintained using Borland C++ compilers, most recently version
5.0b (1996).
Stephen Ferrell has created a 64 bit version of QuikGrid
and re-implemented the Help facility with Microsoft HTML
Workshop.
The full source for this implementation is available here
( QuikGrid-build-5.4-x64-VisualStudio 2013).
It
is also available from Steve's drop box account here.
The source for the Help facility is here.
It
is also available from Steve's dropbox account here.
