http://syoyo.github.io/tinyobjloader/
Tiny but powerful single file wavefront obj loader written in C++. No dependency except for C++ STL. It can parse 10M over polygons with moderate memory and time.
tinyobjloader is good for embedding .obj loader to your (global illumination) renderer ;-)
master branch will be replaced with develop branch in the near future: https://github.com/syoyo/tinyobjloader/tree/develop
develop branch has more better support and clean API interface for loading .obj and also it has optimized multi-threaded parser(probably 10x faster than master). If you are new to use TinyObjLoader, I highly recommend to use develop branch.
- Mar 13, 2016 : Introduce
load_flag_tand flat normal calculation flag! Thanks Vazquinhos! - Jan 29, 2016 : Support n-polygon(no triangulation) and OpenSubdiv crease tag! Thanks dboogert!
- Nov 26, 2015 : Now single-header only!.
- Nov 08, 2015 : Improved API.
- Jun 23, 2015 : Various fixes and added more projects using tinyobjloader. Thanks many contributors!
- Mar 03, 2015 : Replace atof() with hand-written parser for robust reading of numeric value. Thanks skurmedel!
- Feb 06, 2015 : Fix parsing multi-material object
- Sep 14, 2014 : Add support for multi-material per object/group. Thanks Mykhailo!
- Mar 17, 2014 : Fixed trim newline bugs. Thanks ardneran!
- Apr 29, 2014 : Add API to read .obj from std::istream. Good for reading compressed .obj or connecting to procedural primitive generator. Thanks burnse!
- Apr 21, 2014 : Define default material if no material definition exists in .obj. Thanks YarmUI!
- Apr 10, 2014 : Add support for parsing 'illum' and 'd'/'Tr' statements. Thanks mmp!
- Jan 27, 2014 : Added CMake project. Thanks bradc6!
- Nov 26, 2013 : Performance optimization by NeuralSandwich. 9% improvement in his project, thanks!
- Sep 12, 2013 : Added multiple .obj sticher example.

- Group(parse multiple group name)
- Vertex
- Texcoord
- Normal
- Material
- Unknown material attributes are returned as key-value(value is string) map.
- Crease tag('t'). This is OpenSubdiv specific(not in wavefront .obj specification)
- Support different indices for vertex/normal/texcoord

Reading .obj without triangulation. Use num_vertices[i] to iterate over faces(indices). num_vertices[i] stores the number of vertices for ith face.
