Final Degree Project

This repository hosts my final degree project of my double bachelor degree in Mathematics and Computer Science at ETSIIT.

The whole implementation of the ray tracer is based on a Ray Tracing book series.

Using Digital Ocean

First you need to install doctl. You can check this tutorial to learn the basics commands.

External libraries

• Image library. To avoid problems with warnings and formatting I have the following configuration in Visual Studio Code:

  "files.associations": {
      "stb_image.h": "plaintext"
  },

  And the following pragmas added to the header file:

  #pragma GCC diagnostic push
  #pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wunused-but-set-variable"
  #pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wsign-compare"
  
  ...
  
  #pragma GCC diagnostic pop

• I use C++20 so you need to install an updated version of g++: (source)

  sudo apt install software-properties-common
  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
  sudo apt install gcc-9 g++-9
  sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-9 90 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-9 --slave /usr/bin/gcov gcov /usr/bin/gcov-9
  sudo update-alternatives --config gcc

• In order to debug using my Visual Studio Code configuration, you will need to install gdb:

  sudo apt install gdb
