release new crates version with nalgebra 0.27

Closed this issue 3 years ago · 7 comments

Hello,

Could you release a new version with nalgebra 0.27; I see it's in master, but crates does not appear to work with nalgebra 0.27

Thanks

I think I'll make a new release soon. For now, you can just point it to the GitHub repository and if you want you can specify a commit hash? For example

splashsurf_lib = { git = "https://github.com/w1th0utnam3/splashsurf", rev="08cfbea363874cb56dc05e26dde5460fe06205e5" }

to get the most recent commit at the moment.

Yea i generally prefer to not point at git; I can just wait for a new release, if it won't be a long time.

sorry it looks like 0.28 got released shortly after, and salva master is now on 0.28; is it possible to bump the crate again? alternatively, could explore api using mint: https://docs.rs/mint/0.5.6/mint/

ah i see your master is now on 0.28 too; it maybe good to wait until salva gets a crate release so this can be released with whatever nalgebra it has too? but also exploring mint might be a good idea as well :)

I can look into using mint to make this more explicit on the type level. In the meantime you could also use bytemuck (which you would need anyway with mint? At least if you wanted to avoid copies) to convert everything form splashurf::nalgebra to your nalgebra types. I think it's pretty much guaranteed to work across versions. Because it's also basically guaranteed that [T; 3] <-> Vector3 etc. works.
