+/* Author: Morten S. Mikkelsen
+ * Version: 1.0
+ *
+ * The files mikktspace.h and mikktspace.c are designed to be
+ * stand-alone files and it is important that they are kept this way.
+ * Not having dependencies on structures/classes/libraries specific
+ * to the program, in which they are used, allows them to be copied
+ * and used as is into any tool, program or plugin.
+ * The code is designed to consistently generate the same
+ * tangent spaces, for a given mesh, in any tool in which it is used.
+ * This is done by performing an internal welding step and subsequently an order-independent evaluation
+ * of tangent space for meshes consisting of triangles and quads.
+ * This means faces can be received in any order and the same is true for
+ * the order of vertices of each face. The generated result will not be affected
+ * by such reordering. Additionally, whether degenerate (vertices or texture coordinates)
+ * primitives are present or not will not affect the generated results either.
+ * Once tangent space calculation is done the vertices of degenerate primitives will simply
+ * inherit tangent space from neighboring non degenerate primitives.
+ * The analysis behind this implementation can be found in my master's thesis
+ * which is available for download --> http://image.diku.dk/projects/media/morten.mikkelsen.08.pdf
+ * Note that though the tangent spaces at the vertices are generated in an order-independent way,
+ * by this implementation, the interpolated tangent space is still affected by which diagonal is
+ * chosen to split each quad. A sensible solution is to have your tools pipeline always
+ * split quads by the shortest diagonal. This choice is order-independent and works with mirroring.
+ * If these have the same length then compare the diagonals defined by the texture coordinates.
+ * XNormal which is a tool for baking normal maps allows you to write your own tangent space plugin
+ * and also quad triangulator plugin.

+// vNt = normalize( fSign * float3(dot(vNout,row0), dot(vNout,row1), dot(vNout,row2)) );
+// where vNout is the sampled normal in some chosen 3D space.
+//
+// Should you choose to reconstruct the bitangent in the pixel shader instead
+// of the vertex shader, as explained earlier, then be sure to do this in the normal map sampler also.
+// Finally, beware of quad triangulations. If the normal map sampler doesn't use the same triangulation of
+// quads as your renderer then problems will occur since the interpolated tangent spaces will differ
+// eventhough the vertex level tangent spaces match. This can be solved either by triangulating before
+// sampling/exporting or by using the order-independent choice of diagonal for splitting quads suggested earlier.
+// However, this must be used both by the sampler and your tools/rendering pipeline.
