//! [**This is a work in progress** 🚧](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/physx-rs/issues/3)
//!
//! `physx` is intended to be an easy to use high-level wrapper for the [`physx-sys`](https://crates.io/crates/physx)
//! bindings. The goal of this is to make ownership clearer and leverage the safety of Rust.
//!
//! The overall goal is to maintain a close mapping to the underlying PhysX API while improving safety and reliability
//! of the code. This means, for example, that we do not expose the `PxLoadExtensions()` function but rather attach
//! this to the [`Physics`](source/physics.rs) builder.
//!
//! Please also see the [repository](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/physx-rs) containing an unsafe low-level binding.
//!
//! ## Example
//!
//! ## Basic usage
//!
//! ``` rust
//! const PX_PHYSICS_VERSION: u32 = physx::version(4, 1, 1);
//! let mut foundation = Foundation::new(PX_PHYSICS_VERSION);
//!
//! let mut physics = PhysicsBuilder::default()
//!     .load_extensions(false) // Flip this flag to load extensions during setup
//!     .build(&mut foundation);
//!
//! let mut scene = physics.create_scene(
//!     SceneBuilder::default()
//!         .set_gravity(Vec3::new(0.0, -9.81, 0.0))
//!         .set_simulation_threading(SimulationThreadType::Dedicated(1)),
//! );
//!
//! // Your physics simulation goes here
//! ```
//!
//! For a full example, have a look at the [bouncing ball example](examples/ball_physx.rs)
//! and compare it to the [raw sys example](../physx-sys/examples/ball.rs).
//!
//! ## How it works
//!
//! Wrapping a C++ API in Rust is not straightforward, and requires some extra steps
//! to work. The first, and most basic one is creating a C wrapper over the C++ API.
//! Using C as an intermediary allows us to leverage a stable ABI through which C++
//! and Rust can communicate. The `physx-sys` crate provides this interface.
//!
//! Since `PhysX` makes significant use of inheritance, there is no straightforward mapping to Rust code. To simulate
//! the inheritance, we have a pointer-wrapper called [`PxType<T>`](src/px_type.rs). We implement the functions on each
//! wrapped `PxType<PxRgidiActor>` and expose an alias `RigidActor`.
//!
//! The [deref pattern](https://github.com/rust-unofficial/patterns/blob/master/anti_patterns/deref.md) is used to
//! simulate inheritance. For example `RigidBody::set_angular_damping`, can be called from the child `RigidDynamic`
//! because `RigidDynamic` implements `Deref<Target = RigidBody>`.
//!
//! ```Rust
//! // `set_angular_damping` is not defined in `RigidDynamic`, it is defined in `RidigBody`.
//! // This works because `Deref` is used to emulate inheritance.
//! let mut sphere_actor: RigidDynamic = unsafe { physics.create_dynamic(..) };
//! sphere_actor.set_angular_damping(0.5);
//! ```
//!
//! ```Rust
//! // The verbose example to show what happens behind the scenes.
//! let mut sphere_actor: RigidDynamic = unsafe { physics.create_dynamic(..) };
//! {
//!     // `RidigDynamic` implements `Deref/DerefMut` to a `RigidBody`.
//!     let sphere_actor: &mut RigidBody = &mut *sphere_actor;
//!     sphere_actor.set_angular_damping(0.5);
//! }
//! ```
