libx_core

This one parses the actual file and generates an in-memory-representation of the file content (similar to a .xml DOM tree.)

libx_model

This library can convert the generated file-representation into a format suitable for rendering, specifically:

  • reordering streams of normals, positions, etc. so that they are indexable with one index for each vertex
  • convert quad-faces to triangles
