<h2> <a name="Scene graph dependencies"></a><u>Scene graph dependencies</u></h2>
The OpenSceneGraph is composed of core scene graph libraries, plugins libraries
and demo programs. The core scene graph libraries (osg, osgDB, osgUtil, osgText,
osgParticle, osgSim) are only dependent upon OpenGL and Standard C++ so should
compile straight out of the box on most systems. To run the examples one
will also need to compile osgProducer which adds the dependency of Producer,
and if true type text is required then the freetype library will be required.
The plugins which are used to read and write various file formats have their
own sets of dependencies listed below, some have no dependencies at all.
A plugin is only needed if you need to load that specific file format, so
it is not critical if you don't have all the required dependencies. <br>

<h3> <a name="Windows dependency arhives"></a><u>Windows dependency archives</u></h3>
To make life easier for Windows users, we have put together a .zip archives
with all the required dependencies which can be download and installed somewhere
in you system. You'll need to set VisualStudio to pick up on the include
and libs, and the PATH set to pick up in the dll's. Alternatively, a more
hacky but simpler solution is to unpack this archive inside you OpenSceneGraph
distribution, so that all the include files drop into OpenSceneGraph/include,
and the libs drop into OpenSceneGraph/lib, and all the dll's drop into OpenSceneGraph/bin,
in you system. You'll need to set VisualStudio to pick up on the include and

this way VisualStudio will pick up the files simpler through the paths set
up inside the workspace and project files. The archives can be downloaded

<h3><u>Example dependencies</u></h3>
The examples which are included with the distribution depend upon osgProducer
(and hence Producer) but if you don't need the examples or osgProducer you
need to compile them, and can remove references to osgProducer and the examples
by editing your VisualStudio workspace files or Make/makedirdefs approrpiately.

Follows is the list of dependencies which some of the osgPlugins require,
note the core osg and viewer do not need the following dependencies, you only
need the following if you require each specific plugin. Note, the flt, 3ds,
pic, tga, do not have any dependencies other than Standard C++ so will compile
straight of the bag. Under Linux the majority of the dependencies below come
as standard with distributions so you may not need to download them at all.
Its best to try out a straight compile of the osg, if you get missing includes/libs
errors then chase up the below. <br>

and therefore is not compiled by default. If you have Performer (available
