APIs are provided for C and C++. There are various bindings to other languages (C#, Java, Python, Delphi, D). Assimp also runs on Android and iOS.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, assimp features various __mesh post processing tools__: normals and tangent space generation, triangulation, vertex cache locality optimization, removal of degenerate primitives and duplicate vertices, sorting by primitive type, merging of redundant materials and many more.
|
|
|
|
This is the development trunk containing the latest features and bugfixes. For productive use though, we recommend one of the stable releases available from [assimp.sf.net](http://assimp.sf.net) or from *nix package repositories.

|
### Where to get help ###
|
|
For more information, visit [our website](http://assimp.org/). Or check out the `./doc`- folder, which contains the official documentation in HTML format.
|
|
(CHMs for Windows are included in some release packages and should be located right here in the root folder).
|
|
|
|
If the docs don't solve your problem, ask on [StackOverflow](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/assimp?sort=newest). If you think you found a bug, please open an issue on Github.
|
|
|
|
For development discussions, there is also a (very low-volume) mailing list, _assimp-discussions_
|
|
[(subscribe here)]( https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/assimp-discussions)
|
|
|
|
Open Asset Import Library is a library to load various 3d file formats into a shared, in-memory format. It supports more than __40 file formats__ for import and a growing selection of file formats for export.
|
|
|
