<u>Compiling and installing the OpenSceneGraph</u></h2>
|
|
|
|
|
The scene graph depends upon Standard C++, STL and OpenGL so you need a
|
|
|
|
|
C++ compiler up to the task and OpenGL or Mesa installed. The viewer depends
|
|
|
|
|
upon GLUT which you'll need to download and install from the GLUT website.
|
|
|
|
|
The OSG has it own native ascii file format, and .rgb image reader inbuilt
|
|
|
|
|
which allows you read the example data with any dependencies other than
|
|
|
|
|
C++, STL and OpenGL.
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The osgText library adds the dependency of the freetype library for
|
|
|
|
|
support of true type fonts, however it is not essential to the core library,
|
|
|
|
|
so you can comment it out from compilation by modifying the src/Makefile,
|
2002-04-20 23:49:28 +08:00
|
|
|
and src/Demos/Makefile. I you wish to use fonts then you can download freetype
|
|
|
|
|
from www.freetype.org. The osgText library also requires an up to date
|
|
|
|
|
GLU implementation which supports GLU1.2 tessellation routines. If you
|
|
|
|
|
your current GLU is out of date you'll need to download the latest, for
|
|
|
|
|
instance the sgi's sample implementation for GLU from the www.opengl.org
|
|
|
|
|
website.
|
2002-04-25 21:26:33 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>The OSG also has a set of plug-ins which support non-native 3d database
|
2002-04-20 23:49:28 +08:00
|
|
|
and image formats, several have no dependencies on external libraries (flt,3ds,obj,
|
|
|
|
|
lwo,dw, tga & pic), while others (pfb,jpeg,gif,tiff) require other
|
|
|
|
|
libraries to be installed to compile them. If you don't already have them
|
|
|
|
|
installed then don't worry, you'll still be able to use the OSG, just comment
|
|
|
|
|
out the plugins you can't compile from the src/osgPlugins/Makefile. The
|
|
|
|
|
core osg library and viewer has been designed to load the plug-ins at run-time
|
|
|
|
|
only and if they are required to load a specific data set. If you don't
|
|
|
|
|
need them for your datasets then it won't matter that you haven't been
|
|
|
|
|
able to compile all the plug-ins. A full list of dependencies and where
|
2002-04-21 17:51:59 +08:00
|
|
|
to download the required libraries are listed in the

|
<p>If you're coming across the OSG for the first time and want to get started
|
2002-04-20 23:49:28 +08:00
|
|
|
quickly, go right ahead and follow the compilation instructions. You can
|
|
|
|
|
always later download the libraries which the plug-ins require if you eventually
|
2002-04-21 17:51:59 +08:00
|
|
|
need them.

<p>The Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 workspace file is VisualStudio.dsw located

<p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE:</b> Whilst the OSG will compile cleanly with the basic VC++6.0 and

<p>The OSG is composed of a number of scene graph libraries (with Core in
|
2002-04-25 21:26:33 +08:00
|
|
|
front of the project names), executables (with Demos in front of the project
|
2002-08-31 00:17:41 +08:00
|
|
|
names), and plugins which read and write 3D data formats and 2D image formats
|
2002-08-29 22:29:49 +08:00
|
|
|
(with osgPlugins in front of the project names).
|
2002-04-25 21:26:33 +08:00
|
|
|
To get the OSG running you'll need at least to compile Core osg,osgUtil,osgDB,osgGLUT,
|
|
|
|
|
osgPlugin dot_osg and Demo sgv. The rest of the libraries and executables
|
|
|
|
|
are optional and can be compiled if you need them, however for simplicity
|
|
|
|
|
I would recommend doing a batch build of all the libraries and executables
|
|
|
|
|
in the distribution, some of the plug-ins which support non native file
|
|
|
|
|
formats may not compile due to dependencies on other libraries (such as
|
|
|
|
|
libpng), you can ignore these compilation errors unless you need to load
|
|
|
|
|
the related file types. To help the compilation the plugins, osgGLUT and
|
|
|
|
|
osgText one can download .zip archive will all the dependencies in it.
|
|
|
|
|
Further details on this .zip file can be found in <i><a href="dependencies.html">dependencies.html</a></i>

2002-04-21 04:35:02 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>To execute the viewer the file path for the .dll's and .exe, both compiled
|
|
|
|
|
into the OSG's bin directory, need to be setup, such as by adding the PATH
|
|
|
|
|
to your autoexec.bat, its also useful to add the OSGFILEPATH to your autoexec.bat
|
|
|
|
|
to help the location of datafiles. For example :
|
2002-04-25 21:26:33 +08:00
|
|
|
<p>SET OSGFILEPATH=D:\OpenSceneGraph-Data;D:\OpenSceneGraph-Data\Images
|
2002-04-21 04:35:02 +08:00
|
|
|
<br>SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;D:\osg-0.8.43\bin;
|
|
|
|
|
<p>To help compilation of the image reader plugins, various image libraries
|
2002-04-25 21:26:33 +08:00
|
|
|
have been zipped up for your convenience, your find these on the OSG release

Using Visual Studio .NET</h3>
|
2002-08-31 00:17:41 +08:00
|
|
|
Visual Studio 7.0 .MET has a solid STL implementation and improve standard C++ complient
|
|
|
|
|
and works with the OpenSceneGraph without problems. This is the recommended route.

<h3>
|
|
|
|
|
Using Dinkumware STL</h3>
|
2002-04-25 21:26:33 +08:00
|
|
|
The basic jist is that you'll need to download their STL implementation,
|
|
|
|
|
and follow their instructions of how to force VisualStudio to pick up the
|
|
|
|
|
new STL implementation. More details at <a href="http://www.dinkumware.com/vc_fixes.html">http://www.dinkumware.com/vc_fixes.html</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Once it is installed everything should compile fine and not crash, but
|
|
|
|
|
you won't be running at full speed since the build #ifdef's out some important
|
|
|
|
|
state optimizations since the basic VisualStudio can't handle it. You can
|
|
|
|
|
safely remove the #ifdef from src/osgUtil/Otimizer.cpp, Line 44. The #ifdef
|
|
|
|
|
is smart enough to do this automatically when using VisualStudio .NET and
|
|
|
|
|
STLport so that modification by hand won't be required. Unfortunately there
|
|
|
|
|
doesn't seem to be a special define associated with the Dinkumware STL
|
|
|
|
|
for the #ifdef to pick up on.

|

<h3>
|
|
|
|
|
Using STLport</h3>
|
2002-08-31 00:17:41 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>A very good HOWTO for installing and making the STLPort libs on MSVC6
|
|
|
|
|
can be found at <a href="http://www.softadvances.com/articles/stlportusing.html">http://www.softadvances.com/articles/stlportusing.html</a>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The OSG has been tested under Windows with STLport-4.5, which allows the
|
2002-04-21 04:35:02 +08:00
|
|
|
users to configure the type of STL support required for STLport itself.
|
|
|
|
|
The key configuration that the OSG needs to do is to enable the wrapping
|
|
|
|
|
of MS's own iostreams, than using STLport's own implementation. The later
|
|
|
|
|
is not required because this has not be problematic under Windows, it is
|
2002-08-31 00:17:41 +08:00
|
|
|
only the container classes and algorithms that need replacing. Using the iostream wrapping
|
2002-04-21 04:35:02 +08:00
|
|
|
option means the STLport can just be used on your include path, there is
|
|
|
|
|
no need to compile STLport itself, or link into any special libraries.
|
|
|
|
|
To configure STLport simply comment IN (its commented out by default),
|
2002-04-25 21:26:33 +08:00
|
|
|
the following line from STLport-4.5/stlport/stl_user_config.h so it should
|
2002-08-31 00:17:41 +08:00
|
|
|
look:
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
# define _STLP_NO_OWN_IOSTREAMS 1
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Then configure the includes path in Visual Studio to pick up on STLport: Select the "Tools" menu. Select
|
2002-04-21 04:35:02 +08:00
|
|
|
"Options" In the Options dialog, select the "Directories" tab Under the
|
|
|
|
|
"include" option, add the path to STLport4.5, something like: D:/STLport4.5/stlport
|
|
|
|
|
Then press the up array to move the entry all the way to the top of the
|
|
|
|
|
list, thus overriding MS's own STL implementations.

<h3>Linking your own apps to the OpenSceneGraph</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>All OpenSceneGraph libraries, plugins and executables are compiled with
|
|
|
|
|
the multi-threaded dll option turned ON, and with RTTI turned ON. Your own
|
|
|
|
|
projects which link to the OpenSceneGraph must uses these same options or
|
|
|
|
|
your application will crash or produce unpredicatable behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>Syntax highlight + OpenScenegraph Standard C++ style headers</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The OpenSceneGraph uses Standard C++ style extensionless headers, which
|
|
|
|
|
poor VisualStudio doesn't automatically recognize as suitable for
|
|
|
|
|
syntax highlighting (compile works fine though), even the StandardC++
|
|
|
|
|
header themselves require a hack to get VisualStudio to highlight them
|
|
|
|
|
properly. The easy answer is to use that same hack to get it to recognize
|
|
|
|
|
the OpenSceneGraph headers too. To make easy a modified header listing file
|
|
|
|
|
can be found in the VisualStudio/LANDEXT.DAT. First copy the original
|
|
|
|
|
LANDEXT.DAT file (located in C:\Progam Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Bin)
|
|
|
|
|
to LANDEXT.DAT.BKP, and then copy over the OpenSceneGraph one. Once you have
|
|
|
|
|
done this VisualStudio will syntax highlight them without problem.

<p>The osgText library now depends upon GLU1.3 functionality, and only

osgText due to GLU problems then check out the details at the bottom of

RedHat 7.2 & GLU1.3</h3>
|
2002-04-21 04:35:02 +08:00
|
|
|
I have posted a simple fix for those of us who have been unable to correctly
|
|
|
|
|
build OSG 0.8.43 on Redhat 7.2. You can download it at http://www.openscenegraph.org/download/dependencies/ReadHat7.2_fixglu.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|
To install it, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
|
<p>English
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>1) Untar the tarball. It will create a directory called fixosg/
|
|
|
|
|
<br>2) Change to the ReadHat7.2_fixglu/ directory
|
|
|
|
|
<br>3) Become root
|
|
|
|
|
<br>4) Run the script called fixglu</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
Cmd line
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>tar xvzf ReadHat7.2_fixglu.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|
<br>cd ReadHat7.2_fixglu/
|
|
|
|
|
<br>su (your root password)
|
|
|
|
|
<br>./fixglu
|
|
|
|
|
<br>exit</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
You should then be able to do a "make" in your OSG directory and everything
|
|
|
|
|
will build as it should. Let me know if this doesn't work and I will try
|
|
|
|
|
to improve it. Email me directly for help instead of posting here. There's
|
|
|
|
|
a README in the tarball with some info on what the script actually does.
|
|
|
|
|
There's nothing wrong with OSG itself; the problem with Redhat 7.2 is that
|
|
|
|
|
it doesn't have GLU 1.3 by default, which OSG is now dependent on (for
|
|
|
|
|
osgText.) Good luck everyone. - Clay

Since the OSG uses Standard C++ features such as STL it is important to

have an up to date version of the MIPSPro compilers, ie. 7.3 or later.

<a NAME="Mac OSX"></a><u>Compiling under MacOS X</u></h3>
|
|
|
|
|
For anyone who's ever used a Unix box for development, well, the mac
|
|
|
|
|
<i>is</i> a Unix box. It's very simple to get OpenSceneGraph building
|
|
|
|
|
and running under Mac OS X. The main requirement is that you need to have
|
|
|
|
|
installed the Developer tools from the CD that comes
|
2002-04-20 23:49:28 +08:00
|
|
|
for free with OS X. This gives you compilers, headers, frameworks - stuff
|
2002-07-18 08:53:03 +08:00
|
|
|
like GLUT and Carbon for developers. Get those here:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> The Apple <a href="http://developer.apple.com/tools/macosxtools.html">
|
|
|
|
|
developer tools website</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Everything is done command-line, so you need to get to a shell before
|
|
|
|
|
proceeding. The Mac comes with an app in Applications/Utilities
|
2002-04-20 23:49:28 +08:00
|
|
|
called Terminal - open up any Finder window (e.g double-click on your hard
|
|
|
|
|
disk icon), click on the Applications icon at the top right of the window,
|
2002-07-18 08:53:03 +08:00
|
|
|
then click on the Utilities folder to get access to the Terminal.
|
|
|
|
|
When you start Terminal it brings you up a csh running from your ~/ directory.
|
|
|
|
|
Now, go to your OpenSceneGraph directory, and simply type:
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>make -j2</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
</blockquote>
|
2002-04-20 23:49:28 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2002-07-18 08:53:03 +08:00
|
|
|
And some time later you'll be rewarded with a lovely set of binaries and
|
|
|
|
|
libraries. The Mac OSX build currently only builds a subset of the total
|
|
|
|
|
functionality in OpenSceneGraph, but a large subset at that. Some of
|
|
|
|
|
the remaining projects are known to build as well, but have external
|
|
|
|
|
dependencies on libraries such as libtiff, libjpg, libpng, etc. and
|
|
|
|
|
so are not included in the default build. However, if you examine
|
|
|
|
|
the file <tt>OpenSceneGraph/Make/makedefs</tt> you will find which extra
|
|
|
|
|
projects build for the mac, provided you have the external libraries
|
|
|
|
|
required. Details
|
|
|
|
|
on how to install these external libraries are outside the scope of
|
|
|
|
|
this document, but for starting points, see one of:
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> The <a href="http://fink.sourceforge.net">fink project</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
<li> The <a href="http://gnu-darwin.sourceforge.net/">GNU-Darwin project</a>.

|

</ul>

|
<h4> Running the examples </h4>
|
|
|
|
|
Once you've got OpenSceneGraph built, you're ready to run your examples.
|
|
|
|
|
As with other builds on other platforms, OpenSceneGraph requires
|
|
|
|
|
you to set a few environment variables which describe your installation. These
|
|
|
|
|
environment variables should be full-path, not relative, and a list
|
|
|
|
|
of these for a csh-derived environment follow:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>
|
|
|
|
|
setenv OSGHOME `pwd`/OpenSceneGraph <br>
|
|
|
|
|
setenv OSGFILEPATH `pwd`/OpenSceneGraph-Data <br>
|
|
|
|
|
setenv OSG_LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${OSGHOME}/lib <br>
|
|
|
|
|
setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH ${OSG_LD_LIBRARY_PATH} <br>
|
|
|
|
|
</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
</blockquote>

<h4> Notes </h4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <b>Input Focus</b>: Many OSG examples have keyboard commands, however, when launching
|
|
|
|
|
apps from the Mac Terminal, the focus seems to remain in the Terminal. Option-Clicking on
|
|
|
|
|
the graphics window focuses it as the recipient of events, and allows these keyboard commands
|
|
|
|
|
to then function properly.
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <b>Known Bugs</b>:
|
|
|
|
|
<li> <b>Installation</b>: No package based version of an OS X installer yet exists.
