implementation of the atomic increment and decrement into a implementation
file.
This way inlining and compiler optimization can no longer happen for these
implementations, but it fixes compilation on win32 msvc targets. I expect
that this is still faster than with with mutexes.
Also the i386 gcc target gets atomic operations with this patch. By using an
implementation file we can guarantee that we have the right compiler flags
available."
via StateSet::setNestedRenderBin(bool) whether the new RenderBin should be nested
with the existing RenderBin, or be nested with the enclosing RenderStage.
I added a call to allocateDataArray() if rhs has (at least) one valid array, which should allocate the right array according to the type. Since the type was copied from rhs, it should create the same array as rhs has, so then it should copy the data in the following lines.

is based on suggested fix from Marco for fixing a crash due to lack of
thread safety in std::ofstream("/dev/null"); The fix is to use a custom stream
buffer that just discards all data. The implementation is also twice as fast
as the old /dev/null based approach.

I investigated your concerns about glGenerateMipmapEXT being slower than
GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS, and for power-of-two textures, to my surprise
it is. For a 512*512 texture, glGenerateMipmapEXT takes on average 10ms,
while GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS takes on average 6ms. Therefore I have
modified the code to only use glGenerateMipmapEXT if the texture has a
non-power-of-two width or height. I am resubmitting all the files
previously submitted (only "Texture.cpp" has significant changes since
my previous submission, I've also replaced tabs with spaces in
"Texture").
"
GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS is very slow (over half a second for a 720*576
texture). However, glGenerateMipmapEXT() performs well (16ms for the
same texture), so I have modified the attached files to use
Texture::generateMipmap() if glGenerateMipmapEXT is supported, instead
of enabling & disabling GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS."
Notes, from Robert Osfield, I've tested the out of the previous path using
GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS and non power of two textures on NVidia 7800GT and
Nvidia linux drivers with the image size 720x576 and only get compile times
of 56ms, so the above half second speed looks to be a driver bug. With
Muchael's changes the cost goes done to less than 5ms, so it's certainly
an effective change, even given that Michael's poor expereiences with
GL_GENERATE_MIP_SGIS do look to be a driver bug.
- Solves issues of loading image data into the texture memory
- Print a warning if images are of different dimensions or have different internal formats (GL specification requires images to be the same)
Patch is tested and seems to work fine. It shouldn't break any other functionality. It should go into include/osg and src/osg

multi-threaded paging, where the Pager manages threads of reading local
and http files via seperate threads. This makes it possible to smoothly
browse large databases where parts of the data are locally cached while
others are on a remote server. Previously with this type of dataset
the pager would stall all paging while http requests were being served,
even when parts of the models are still loadable virtue of being in the
local cache.
Also as part of the refactoring the DatabaseRequest are now stored in the
ProxyNode/PagedLOD nodes to facilitate quite updating in the cull traversal,
with the new code avoiding mutex locks and searches. Previous on big
databases the overhead involved in make database requests could accumulate
to a point where it'd cause the cull traversal to break frame. The overhead
now is negligable.
Finally OSG_FILE_CACHE support has been moved from the curl plugin into
the DatabasePager. Eventually this functionality will be moved out into
osgDB for more general usage.
From Robert Osfield, refactored the FrameBufferObejcts::_drawBuffers set up so that its done
within the setAttachment method to avoid potential threading/execution order issues.
Introduced code in BoundgingSphere, BoundingBox, ProxyNode and LOD to utilise the above settings.
Added Matrix::value_type, Plane::value_type, BoundingSphere::value_type and BoundingBox::value_type command line
options that report where the types of floats or doubles.
and a new scheme for computing the scaling when using autoscale that introduces smooth
transitions to the scaling of the subgraph so that it looks more natural.
The win32 pbuffer implementation returned an error unless both the
WGL_ARB_pbuffer and the WGL_ARB_render_texture functions were present.
This was too restrictive, as a pbuffer can usefully be created without
render-to-texture, e.g. for use with glReadPixels. The osg 1.2/Producer
pbuffers worked without RTT, and osgUtil::RenderStage has all the code to
handle both RTT and non-RTT pbuffers, doing a read and copy in the
latter case.
With these changes I have successfully tested the osgprerender example
on a graphics card which supports RTT, and one which doesn't. Plus
tested in my own application.
In order to aid diagnostics I have also added more function status
return checks, and associated error messages. I have included the win32
error text in all error messages output. And there were some errors
with multi-threaded handling of "bind to texture" and a temporary window
context which I have corrected.
These is one (pre-existing) problem with multi-threaded use of pbuffers
in osgViewer & osgprerender, which I have not been able to fix. A win32
device context (HDC) can only be destroyed from the thread that created
it. The pbuffers for pre-render cameras are created in
osgUtil::RenderStage::runCameraSetUp, from the draw thread. But
closeImplementation is normally invoked from the destructor in the main
application thread. With the additional error messages I have added,
osgprerender will now output a couple of warnings from
osgViewer::PixelBufferWin32::closeImplementation() at exit, after
running multi-threaded on windows. I think that is a good thing, to
highlight the problem. I looked into fixing it in osgViewer::Renderer &
osgUtil::RenderStage, but it was too involved for me. My own
application requirements are only single-threaded.
Unrelated fix - an uninitialised variable in
osg::GraphicsThread::FlushDeletedGLObjectsOperation().

there is a bug. The header file do specify something
like this:
FrameBufferAttachment(Texture3D* target, int zoffset,
int level = 0);
However in the .cpp file we have:
FrameBufferAttachment::FrameBufferAttachment(Texture3D*
target, int level, int zoffset)
Which means that the meaning of level and zoffset is
interchanged.
The file with the corrected line is attached. Should
go into src/osg/
