[Bf-committers] "apply modifiers" for the Collada exporter (need developer feedback)

[Sergey Sharybin]

Hi,

Can see you're creating temporary meshes meshes in exporter. They'll
continue be available from list after export and every export. And on every
export you'll have more and more meshes.

Probably it's not so big issue (not sure, maybe python exporters are doing
the same stuff?) but think in C it might be done much more elegant. Looks
like it's easy to switch createPolylist to use DerivedMesh instead of mesh
(just matter of using getTessFaceArray, getNumTessFaces and gteTessFaceData
callbacks). After this you might use function DM_from_mesh to export "bare"
mesh or build DM using mesh_create_derived_view and pass it
to createPolylist.

Hope this helps you. Feel free to ask for help switching createPolylist to
DM :)
