Looking through the list archives, I came across a thread on the the idea of rewriting fractint in java.. Seems like an excellent idea to me, especially the part about doing speedup optimisations in native code (C or even assembler with a C api). I had just come to the same conclusion for my own project. The optimised code could then be loaded for those OS it has been done for and the default java code run for others. It would have the java advantage of running on anything, be much easier to maintain. and best of all , I could contribute ;-) That rave was probably just an intro so I could show you my attempt at a fractal generator......
I looked at your web site. Very interesting! Jonathan
