The change is source compatible with current osg code and will not affect current users, it simply adds an additional parameter to the GraphicsWindowWin32::WindowData struct constructor and defaults to the current behavior.
Attached are the files "include/osgViewer/api/Win32/GraphicsWindowWin32" and "src/osgViewer/GraphicsWindowWin32.cpp" with my changes, based on svn revision 10045. In addition, I have provided an svn patch file with the same changes for your convenience.
I have discussed the matter with my supervisor, and agreed that my company makes no copyright claim over this extremely trivial change (or to put it another way, we assign copyright to the open scene graph community.)"
"Attached is the osg-plugin for reading ply ( Stanford Triangle Format ) file. I have written the plugin according to OSG standard and have also added cmake build system. The plugin is working fine on both Linux and Windows and should behave similarly on other OS as well."
"I developed this plugin while working on a project based on Equalizer. So VertexData which I am using is taken from equalizer and modified to make them work as separate OSG plugin.
Before contributing this plugin to OSG community, I asked project manager of Equalizer project Stefen regarding potential licensing issues and this is what he has said
"The kd-Tree (VertexBuffer*) is LGPL-licensed, and the base ply loader (ply*) is BSD. As long as you leave the copyright notices intact, there is no issue."
so I think using these files in OSG should not be a problem.
As far as author of ReaderWriterPLY.cpp is concerned I am the author. I am working for Darshan3d which is a subsidiary of VizExperts thats why I have put VizExperts copyright."
From Robert Osfield, refactor of the above code to retain a bit more of the original funcionality, and to avoid the need to hand maintained XCode projects from being updated.
I have attached a fixed file where the traits are checked in the PrimitiveShapeFunctor where appropriate. They are checked for Box, Cone Capsule and Cylinder. These just mirror the checks that were already done in the DrawShapeVisitor.
(another instance where if the ShapeDrawable had just been osg::Geometry, there wouldn't have been a problem... :-) )
I also fixed a small typo in the file in two places ("implementated" --> "implemented")."
TrackballManipulator. The purpose of this is to disable throwing when
you release the mouse button while moving the mouse. The default
settings is true (ie, allow throw). The two source files are attached.
"
I believe this is now fixed ... I have attached the new DistanceAccumulator.cpp, along with a modified example file that uses a PositionAttitudeTransform to draw the Earth's orbit around the Sun."

Background: when you access a file over HTTP, you cannot rely on a file extension being present; instead the file's mime-type is conveyed in the HTTP Content-Type response header. This facility adds a mime-type-to-extension map to the registry to handle this.
There are two new osgDB::Registry functions which are pretty self-explanatory:
void addMimeTypeExtensionMapping( mime-type, extension )
ReaderWriter* getReaderWriterForMimeType( mime-type )
I also added the file osgDB/MimeTypes.cpp which houses a hard-coded list of built-in types. I took the list from here (http://www.webmaster-toolkit.com/mime-types.shtml) and then pared it down to include mostly image and video types, editing them to map to existing plugins where possible.
In addition, I updated the CURL plugin to a) install a set of built-in mime-type mappings, and b) use them to look up an extension in the event that the target filename does not have an extension.
Here is a test case. This URL pulls down a JPEG (without a file extension):
osgviewer --image "http://us.maps3.yimg.com/aerial.maps.yimg.com/ximg?v=1.8&s=256&t=a&r=1&x=0&y=0&z=2"

Since this is a workaround for a bug in a beta OS (which may or may not be fixed, since it's mentioned in their release notes so they may just leave it as it is) I've marked the option as advanced, default to OFF, and clearly documented it as being useful for Windows 7 only. I'd like to be able to test for Windows 7 directly instead of the blanket IF(WIN32), but I can't figure out if this is possible in CMake.
Here's the modified CMakeLists.txt. It's a small change, with low impact, but will be useful to others who test out this OS and when it comes out. Note that I'm not familiar with this option in general, and didn't get any feedback to my questions in the above-mentioned thread, one of which was: Could we just add this option to all builds? What is the impact? That's still unclear to me, but without it OSG executables don't build, and the article I linked didn't seem to present any ill effects to enabling the option."
The osgViewer::CompositeViewer had partial support for Producer Camera
config files, but it was not working completely. Here is the completed
implementation. File: src/osgViewer/CompositeViewer.cpp.
"
linked with system libraries using LINK_INTERNAL instead of
LINK_EXTERNAL. This caused it to try to link with libXrandrd instead of
libXrandr, which failed. Attached is the fixed CMakeLists.txt."
It adds two options:
Accuracy(x) - ensures the polyline will be within x units from the ideal arc/curve
ImproveAccuracyOnly - do not use the given accuracy 'x', if it would result in a worse curve than with the previous (2.8.0) implementation for a particular arc/curve.
As an added bonus there was a small bug in the existing implementation whereby the primitives were line strips but the vertices generated were actually suitable for GL_LINES, so the improved accuracy doesn't even have to come at a performance cost :-)"
