* Use <tt>SG_LOG</tt> calls instead of <cout> and iostreams. | * Use <tt>SG_LOG</tt> calls instead of <cout> and iostreams. SG_LOG is controllable (partially so right now, moreso in the future) and the overhead of messages can be avoided at build time. <iostreams> can be expensive both at compile-time and run-time (not always, but if used naively). | ||
* Use <tt>SGGeod</tt> instead of basic longitude/latitude/elevation doubles. It's easier to pass to other methods, type safe (can't confuse order of lat/lon) and unit-safe (degrees vs radians vs meters vs feet is explicit in the API). | * Use <tt>SGGeod</tt> instead of basic longitude/latitude/elevation doubles.
