The DatabasePager now passes the Terrain pointer into the ReaderWriter's via osgDB::Options object,
rather than pushing a NodePath containing the Terrain onto NodeVisitor. This
change means that the DatabasePager nolonger needs to observer the whole NodePath and
will be lighter and quicker for it.
The change also means that ReadFileCallback can now run custom NodeVisitor's on the scene graph without
having to worry about TerrainTile's constructing scene graphs prior to the Terrain being assigned.
Also changed is the NodeVisitor::DatabaseRequestHandler which now requires a NodePath to the node that you wish
to add to rather than just the pointer to the node you wish to add to. This is more robust when handling scenes
with multiple parental paths, whereas previously errors could have occurred due to the default of picking the first
available parental path. This change means that subclasses of DatabasePager will need to be updated to use this new
function entry point.
Introduced a new callback osgDB::FindFileCallback that overrides the default behavior of findDataFile/findLibraryFile.
Introduced support for assigning ReaderWriter::Options directory to PagedLOD.
Introduced new osgDB::FileLocationCallback for assistancing the DatabasePager to know when a file is hosted on a local or remote file system.
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.
handle scenes with multiple views with elements that need coordinating on a per view basis.
Added beginings of new osgText::FadeText class (not functionality yet).
with a CoordinateSystemNode which reflect the coordinate system of the
database.
Added support for reading and writing CoordianteSystemNode into the .osg
and .ive formats.
Fixed crash associated with .osg files which contain empty description fields.
From Sondra Inverson, added support to .ive plugin for osgSim::DOFTransform.
this are replaced by the osg::computeLocalToWorld/WorldToLocal() functions
found in osg/Transform.
Made the ReleaseTextureAndDisplayListsVisitor a public nested class of
osgDB::DatabasePager to allow it to be used in the TXP plugin, and added
usage of this visitor to the TXP plugin to make sure that textures and
display lists are released during the update thread.
PositionAttitudeTransform, removed the equivialnt callbacks once found in these
transform classes.
Changed the NodeCallback class so its derived from osg::Object instead of
osg::Referenced to allow it to be saved out in the .osg format.
Added support for Update and Cull callbacks into the .osg file format.
Added support for AnimationPathCallback into the .osg file format.
