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.

get an excess Tab key report when switching back to an OSG
application (usually FlightGear :-). Although KDE has consumed
the Tab, it's sometimes still in the XKeymapEvent's key_vector,
and followed by a Tab KeyRelease event.
Avoid this artifact by
- asking for a "fresh" keymap (via XQueryKeymap()), rather than
using the unreliable(?) XKeymapEvent's key_vector, and by
- flushing all key events on focus-in (to avoid the KeyRelease)
After Super-press, Tab-press, Super-release, Tab-release (note
the wrong release order!) I still get an extra Tab event. But
this is not surprising and not exactly wrong either. Also it's
hard to avoid, as we can't see what happened to the keyboard
before we regained focus.

Percentage of the display recommended depth value. Default 64, Range [0-255]
--wow-offset <value>
Amount of range behind the screen. Default 128, Range [0-255]
0: Range is shifted in the direction of the viewer.
128: Range is equally divided in front and behind the screen.
255: Range is shifted away from the viewer.

hyper keys defined already, but these modifiers were missing in
GUIEventAdapter::ModKeyMask, and the EventQueue ingored them as well.
The attached diff/archive adds the missing parts for Super/Hyper
modifier key support.
I'm aware that this might not be supported on all systems/keyboards
out of the box, but decided to submit it anyway because:
- developers are aware of differences between input devices
(Some mice have scroll wheels, others don't. Some have five or
more buttons, some have only one. Some keyboards don't have
numpads, some have AltGr, some don't etc.)
- even if someone relies on Hyper/Super in distributed software,
this is easy to fix and doesn't create lock-in conditions
- while the names Hyper/Super may only be common on X11, they are
just symbol names and not OS-specific
- even though some systems might not offer these additional modifiers
by default, it's likely that all of them have at least 8 modifier
levels internally, so it should only be a matter of OS configuration
to make them work
- having super/hyper available is useful to offer a user ways
to define local key definitions that are safe from collisions with
predefined "official" key assignments"
unconditionally sets the X11 error handler routine, replacing anything
that was previously set. This is a bit unfriendly, as the X11 error
handler is a global attribute which the application, or the GUI toolkit
being used, may well have set itself.
So I have modified X11WindowingSystemInterface to only replace the error
handler if it is the default i.e. if the application has not set it."
key, but it didn't pick up the initial state. So, if NumLock was on for
the OS at startup (LED on), it was still off for OSG. And the first
keypress turned the LED off, and NumLock on for OSG. The attached fix
picks up the state on every FocusIn, just like it was done in the last
commits for CapsLock. The difference is, that the NumLock mask isn't
standardized (e.g. 0x10 for Linux, and 0x80 for AIX), so we have to do
a reverse lookup (::rescanModifierMapping()).
Note that I could not reproduce the problem on my system, but someone
else confirmed it twice on his, and the patch fixed it for him.
Changed files:

It sets osgGA's keymask when restoring keys on FocusIn, according
to the state values of XKeyEvent and XCrossingEvent. (These are
the only source for X11's current capslock state that avoids
pulling in the XKB extension.)

The problem can be reproduced by simply changing the osgpick example to
use a CompositeViewer with a single view initialized using
setUpViewAcrossAllScreens(). I have attached a modified osgpick.cpp so
you can test it out quickly (please don't check this file in though :-)
) The eventState is then incorrect and picking does not work. The only
changes are in CompositeViewer.cpp (eventTraversal() method), and fix
the problem for me.

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().

remain in pressed state after revealing, even if they are no
longer pressed on the keyboard. This can have bad effects,
especially if the stuck keys are modifier keys. One has to
press and release the stuck keys again to reset the wrong state.
The fix keeps track of all key presses and releases. On FocusOut
and UnmapNotify it releases all keys that are in pressed state,
and on KeymapNotify (following a FocusIn), it sets the currently
pressed keys again. To avoid confusion in the OSG-using application
normal keys are always reported released /before/ and pressed
/after/ modifier keys.
As current key states are returned as char[32] keymap by
XQueryKeymap and XKeymapEvent, this format is also used to
recognize modifier keys and for maintaining the current
internal key state. Functions to set/clear/query bits in
such a keymap are added.
The patch was extensively tested with osgkeyboard and
FlightGear under KDE and fvwm2. It was not tested on a
Xinerama setup or with multiple windows, but as _eventDisplay
is used throughout, there should be no problems. The patch also
makes the following changes:
- removes old and obsolete handling of modifier keys in ::adaptKey().
This wasn't only unused, but also wrong (and for that reason commented
out in revision 7066). The modifier states are actually handled
in ./src/osgGA/EventQueue.cpp (EventQueue::keyPress/keyRelease).
- fixes some spelling"

"This is a fix for the issue reported by Anders a week ago (see \u201c[osg-users] BUG?: mouse coordinate changes after window move\u201d discussion thread on Sept. 20).

This was also causing windows to move out of their assigned screen."

The current code takes the mouse cursor position and adds it to the
window (left,top) position, and sends the mouse cursor there. But this
doesn't take into account the window decoration.
The new code converts the given (x,y) coordinates from the client area
coordinate system to the screen instead using ClientToScreen. I think
this is the natural windows way to do it.

Stephan: "attached you'll find some modifications to the GraphicsWindow-class and
their platform-dependant implementations.
The problem:
setWindowRectangle and setWindowDecoration do not update the
traits-object, so, if you call setWindowRectangle on a
not-realized-window it will open with another size when realized later.
getWindowRectangle reports possible wrong sizes if setWindowRectangle
called before.
My solution:
split the implementation in two parts:
GraphicsWindow::setWindowRectangle will update its traits-object and
call afterwards the virtual method setWindowRectangleImplementation
(which is implemented by the derived platformspecific classess). For
setWindowDecoration I am useing a similar mechanism.
I hope you'll find the submission useful, the Win32 and X11 changes are
not tested but should work."
Changes to this made by Robert are call of resized in setWindowRectangle
instead of setting of Traits, and use of a bool return type.

window.
The win32 implementation is still in its original shape since I have no win32
implementation available.
I have chosen the enum approach for the first cut. That is benefitial since
the user does not need to track creation of mouse cursors for different
windows and displays in presence of multiple viewer windows.
The default set of available mouse shapes is the same set that was available
with glut. That set served many OpenGL applications well, so the hope is that
this is enough.
Even though, that implementation is still extensible:
I have digged out the way SDL defines new mouse cursors and added a still
documented out function prototype in the GraphicsWindow that can be used to
extend the current implemtation for arbitrary mouse shapes. That is not
implemented yet.
I hope that somebody with a win32 test system can catch up that implementation
on win32."

a collegue of mine noticed that on Windows and X11 the modifier state (such as
Alt or Ctrl) would be applied one key press too late: e.g. press & hold Alt,
press a, release Alt, press a, press a would generate the key sequence a,
Alt-a, a instead of Alt-a, a, a.
The problem is also present on Carbon. Moving the call to setModKeyMask in
front of the call to keyPress fixed it for me on Carbon and X11. I suppose
that this will fix the problem for Windows as well."

I moved your code into the ctor of the OSXCarbonWindowingSystemInterface

* Fix to create sample OpenGL window on the proper display device. This is the temporary window used to choose the desired pixel format.

* Implementation of WindowingSystemInterface::setScreenResolution() method
* Implementation of WindowingSystemInterface::setScreenRefreshRate() method
* Implementation of GraphicsWindow::requestWarpPointer() method
* Implementation of GraphicsWindow::useCursor() method and associated trait support. This can be used in two ways; first, when the graphics trait requested indicates that no cursor should be present, a new cursor-less window class is used to create the window. When a cursor-enabled window creation is requested, another window class is used. After creation of a window, it is also possible to toggle the cursor state by using the GraphicsWindow::useCursor method.
* The way the mouse behaves is now compatible with the behaviour seen on X11; i.e. when pressing a mouse button, the window where the pointer is located will capture the mouse input and release it only after the button has been released. This results in all mouse movement events being dispatched to the window where the button was pressed initially until it is released. This improves the interaction with graphics windows.
* Preparation work has been done to support the ability of moving a window from one screen to another screen and recreating its rendering context when this happens. This has been tested with a mix of NVIDIA and ATI cards and works properly. For the moment being, this feature is commented out due to changes in the core OSG libraries that have been done but need to be submitted later this week for approval by Robert.
Upcoming features
* Support for moving windows from one screen to another screen seamlessly
