I had been using libart about a year ago, but then I ran into some numerical
stability problems in the code. I tried fixing them but finally gave up as
I discovered another library which seemed much more promising, and quite
alive, called AGG, by Maxim Shemanarev (McSeem) :

http://sourceforge.net/projects/vector-agg/

It is pure C++ with heavy use of templates and produces astonishingly
good results. I can only encourage you to look at the samples which
work both on Win32 and Linux.

Currently, there is no available documentation that I am aware of (you
might have a look at www.antigrain.com which contains some outdated docs).

Hope this helps.
