Initial email from Tim : "I've implemented using a timestamp, available with ARB_timer_query and OpenGL 3.3, to gather GPU stats. This is nice because it can accurately fix the GPU draw time with respect to the other times on the stats graph, rather than having to estimate the wall time of the end of GPU drawing. This also prevents anomalies like the GPU phase starting before the draw phase..."
Changes to Tim's submission by Robert: Removal of need for swap buffer callback in ViewerBase.cpp, by
integrating a osg::State::frameCompleted() method that does the stats timing collection. Introduction of a
GraphicsContext::swapBuffersCallbackOrImplementation() method that calls the State::frameCompleted() and
the swap buffers callback or the swapImplementation as required.
A new AutoRotateMode was added. I named it ROTATE_TO_AXIS to be
consistent with the other AutoRotateModes, even though it changes from
how is called in Billboard (AXIAL_ROT).
Setters and getters for rotation axis and normal were also added to the
AutoTransform class interface.
The implementation is mainly a copy-paste from Billboard code.
"
changed extensions from .c to .cpp and got compiling as C files as part of the osg core library.
Updated and cleaned up the rest of the OSG to use the new internal GLU.
osg/Camera. The ::glName issue masked the fact that the "(..)" isn't handled
well in doxygen and leads to "(." in the generated files.
I'm also submitting a minor documentation fix to osgGA/DriveManipulator to get
it out of my patch queue ;)"
I move declaration of classes TestResult, QueryGeometry from cpp to header file and made a void createSupportNodes() a virtual method.
Now is possible to inherit from class OcclusionQueryNode."
Goals:
- to handle INCR_WRAP values nicely if not supported by OpenGL (old hardware)
- to support two side stenciling of OpenGL 2.0. Current implementation does not work on ATI as it uses Nvidia extension.
Ready for commit:
- Stencil and Stencil.cpp - please, review them
Ready with "hack":
- StencilTwoSided.cpp: please, see the line 113 in apply():
glEnable(GL_STENCIL_TEST_TWO_SIDE);
This line used to be in getModeUsage() as
usage.usesMode(GL_STENCIL_TEST_TWO_SIDE);
but it produces OpenGL errors on ATI as it is unknown value there (it is Nvidia extension).
Problems with my "glEnable" solution:
- it enables two side stenciling forever, and it will disturb any other single-side stenciling in the scene graph.

Texture.cpp:applyTexImage2D_subload:
<code>
unsigned char* data = = (unsigned char*)image->data();
if (needImageRescale) {
// allocates rescale buffer
data = new unsigned char[newTotalSize];
// calls gluScaleImage into the data buffer
}
const unsigned char* dataPtr = image->data();
// subloads 'dataPtr'
// deletes 'data'
</code>
In effect, the scaled data would never be used.
I've also replaced bits of duplicate code in Texture1D/2D/2DArray/3D/Cubemap/Rectangle
that checks if the texture image can/should be unref'd with common functionality in
Texture.cpp.

"enable thread locking in libavcodec
This is required for a multithreaded application using ffmpeg from
another thread."
"Prevent the audio from videos from hanging on exit if they are paused.
The video decoder already has similar logic."
"Add a way to retrieve the creation time for MPEG-4 files."
"fmpeg, improve wait for close logic
Both audio and video destructors have been succesfully using the logic,
if(isRunning())
{
m_exit = true;
join();
}
since it was introduced,
but the close routines are using,
m_exit = true;
if(isRunning() && waitForThreadToExit)
{
while(isRunning()) { OpenThreads::Thread::YieldCurrentThread(); }
}
which not only is it doing an unnecessary busy wait, but it doesn't
guaranteed that the other thread has terminated, just that it has
progressed far enough that OpenThreads has set the thread status as
not running. Like the destructor set the m_exit after checking
isRunning() to avoid the race condition of not getting to join()
because the thread was running, but isRunning() returns false.
Now that FFmpeg*close is fixed, call it from the destructor as well
to have that code in only one location."
about the Observer header:
/home/cubicool/local/include/osg/Observer: In copy constructor
?osg::ObserverSet::ObserverSet(const osg::ObserverSet&)?:
/home/cubicool/local/include/osg/Observer:66: warning: base class ?class
osg::Referenced? should be explicitly initialized in the copy
constructor
I've been fixing this by hand by using the attached Observer header; it
does exactly what the warning requests. Purely cosmetic, I believe, but
other than that OSG seems to compile w/ -W -Wall just fine."
creation of main shader to ShaderComposer and
collection of ShaderComponent to osg::State.
Also added very basic shader set up in osgshadecomposition example.
osg::Camera* c = createCamera();
c->attach( osg::Camera::COLOR_BUFFER0, texture3d, 0,
osg::Camera::FACE_CONTROLLED_BY_GEOMETRY_SHADER );

"
bool observer_ptr<>::lock(ref_ptr<T>&) to avoid the temporary ref_ptr<>'s
being created and destroyed on the stack along with the associated ref/unref() operations
in process: a wrong definition of the OSG_FATAL macro, and wrong logic
inside the KeySwitchMatrixManipulator::getDistance() function. I
believe both were slips."
Texture2DMultismaple as name suggests provides means to directly access subsamples of rendered FBO target. (GLSL 1.5 texelFetch call).
Recently I was working on deferred renderer with OSG, during that I noticed there is no support for multisampled textures (GL_ARB_texture_multisample extension). After consultations with Paul Martz and Wojtek Lewandowski I added Texture2DMultisample class and made few necessary changes around osg::FrameBufferObject, osg::Texture and osgUtil::RenderStage classes."
and from follow email:
"Fixed. According to ARB_texture_multisample extension specification multisample textures don't need TexParameters since they can only be fetched with texelFetch."
osgAnimation. It's been tested with the majority of the samples in the
COLLADA test repository and works with all of them either as well as, or
better than, the version of the plugin currently in SVN.
Known issue: vertex animation (AKA morphing) doesn't work at present,
but that's a relatively unpopular method of animating so it's not high
on my priority list."
Follow up email:
"I've been informed that the previous DAE submission didn't build on
unix, so here's the submission again with the fixes. Thanks to Gregory Potdevin and Benjamin Bozou.
Also, my apologies to Roland for not crediting his part in making DAE
animation happen, my work was indeed built on top of his work. Thanks
also to Marius Heise and of course Cedric Pinson."
Changes by Robert Osfield, fixed compile issues when compile without C* automatic conversion enabled in ref_ptr<>
and constructor initialization fixes to address some warnings under gcc.
* Change OcclusionQueryNode::getPassed to take a NodeVisitor rather than the distance from BS center to the eye point. Change where CullVisitor calls this method to use the new parameters.
* getPassed now exits early and returns true to avoid blinking / blink-in of geometry for the first frame or for out-of-range LOD children coming back into view.
* getPassed now considers the distance from the near plane to the bounding sphere (rather than eye point to bounding sphere) when determining if the viewer is "inside" the bounding sphere or not."
which utilises a global recursive mutex that is dedicated to manage Observer and ObserverSet.
The new global mutex for observers avoids problems with deadlocks that were occurring previously when
an osg::Refenced object was being deleted at the same time as on osg::ObserverNodePath.
