Hi All,
Good news: before-floats are working. There probably are bugs and place
for improvement but I think it is time to submit a first patch, so that
you may see what I've done.
I'm currently cleaning up and documenting my code, and I think the
handling of the activeLines array may be simplified: currently, for a
line l, activeLines[2*l] points to the first active node for this line,
and activeLines[2*l+1] points to the last node. But the last node is
never directly accessed, only by starting at the first one and following
the links.
Perhaps I misunderstand your question, but I think the last active node
in a line is used when adding yet another active node for that line at
the end of the linked list. In BreakingAlgorithm:addNode():
activeLines[headIdx + 1].next = node;
On the other hand, a different data structure of nodes might very well
open up different improvement. The current structure of using a linked
list for each line, is just the best I could come up with at the time.
