Yes it is going to be fairly similar. A few exceptions:

* No mesh structure per se (vertex and index buffer inline in the actual function)
* Definitely the sincos_table parts

You can see (a rather dated at this point) version here:
http://github.com/misha680/wine/blob/master/dlls/d3dx9_36/mesh.c

Why do you ask?

Are you aware of a good way to share code between tests and the actual function?

Thank you
Misha

p.s. I'm not really aware of another (better) approach to compute.
