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.
the extra capability of making it possible for Observers to assume ownership of a object that would otherwsie be deleted.
Added a thread safe ref_ptr<T> observer_ptr<T>::lock() method for robust access to an observed object. This
makes observer_ptr<> more equivilant to boosts weak_ptr.
Introduced the OSG_NOTIFY_DISABLE Cmake variable + include/osg/Config #define to control whether the OpenSceneGraph build
should disable the notification system completely. By setting OSG_NOTIFY_DISABLE to ON in CMake and then rebuilding the
the OSG you can get a slightly smaller (~1%) and more slightly efficient library which can be good for shipping applications,
but with downside of reduced ability to detect runtime problems and their causes.
From Robert Osfield, I didn't merge the change of parameter type of IntersectKdTree::intersect() as the internal maths is all done in Vec3s. Keeping Vec3 here hasn't effected the test results.
osg::Texture1D classes, for the reason of implementing the I/O
serialization feature. In the Sequence header, I've added some more
convenient functions: setTimeList/getTimeList,
setLoopMode/getLoopMode, setBegin/getBegin, setEnd/getEnd,
setSpeed/getSpeed and setNumRepeats/getNumRepeats.
In the Texture1D header, fixed:
inline void setTextureWidth(int width) const ...
to:
inline void setTextureWidth(int width) ..."
Notes from Robert Osfield, have gone a little further with these changes and have removed some of the original get methods that were out of step with the way the rest of the OSG manages the set/get property pairs.
1) Add getShadowComparison() accessor function to osg::Texture class
2) Modify ReaderWriterTiff::writeTifStream() and _readColor() (in Image.cpp) to handle pixelFormat==GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT as if it were GL_LUMINANCE
3) Modify the Texture classes of the ive and osg plug-ins so that they save/load the following Texture members: _use_shadow_comparison, _shadow_compare_func and _shadow_texture_mode
"
glActiveTexture on every State::apply after more than one texunits have been
used.
This is against 2.9.6 (I think SVN head is the same)
Quick Synopsis:
New functions:
State::applyModeOnTexUnit
State::applyAttributeOnTexUnit
State::applyModeMapOnTexUnit
State::applyAttributeMapOnTexUnit
State::applyModeListOnTexUnit
State::applyAttributeListOnTexUnit
All copies of the normal versions, but they also set the active tex unit if
absolutely necessary (i.e. only if they call something OpenGL).
State::apply (*2)
State::applyTextureAttribute
Changed to call the above functions and no longer call setActiveTextureUnit
themselves.
State::setActiveTextureUnit
Made inline, so the benefit of having applyModeOnTexUnit (etc) inline
is retained.

To enable the automatic attachment of the required update callback to call osg::Image::update(..) subclasses from osg::Image will
need to implement the osg::Image::requestUpdateCall() and return true, and implement the osg::Image::update(NodeVisitor*) method to recieve the update call during the update traversal.
DisplaySettings now define COLOR and DEPTH as defaults for implicit buffers. Consequently Camera by default uses the same defaults through USE_DISPLAY_SETTINGS_MASK. However, particular Camera mask can be easily overriden through Camera::setImplicitBufferAttachmentMask method. I hope, that in this way we can have global control over implicit buffer defaults, and we can still retain fine grained control at Camera level.
I have also replaced original unsigned ints used to store masks to signed ints because complier resolves enums as signed integer (I got a number of warnings with unsigned int)."
Most notable the __hpux define stuff. The __hpux__ variant seems to be not
defined which resulted in a compile error at this time. Consequently I have
replaced all occurances of __hpux__ with __hpux. And huge surprise: now osg
plugins are found and loaded correctly ...
The next notable one is the MSVC_IDE fix which makes the nmake Makefiles cmake
generator target behave like the ide one. Showed up because I started to do
scripted builds with nmake instead of devenv...
The rest is the usual bunch of stuff that just happens during normal
coding ..."
Fixed to osg::Texture for GLES support.
Added automatic GLenum mode mappings in osg::PrimitiveSet to provide a fallback for non support glDrawArray/glDrawElement modes.
Added finer gained error checking during StateSet::compile().
Moved the handling of DisplaySettings into Traits constructor.
Added support for s/getGLContextVersion(), s/getGLContextFlags() and s/getGLContextProfileMask() to osg::DisplaySettings.
Added command line and env var support for setting the GLContextVersion, GLContextFlags and GLContextProfileMask to osg::DisplaySettings.
Removed EXT postfix of FrameBufferObject functions, and added support for checking non EXT versions frame buffer object GL functions.
Introduced usage of OSG_GL*_FEATURES to avoid some #if #else #endif code blocks.
Using a submissions from Paul Martz as a guide added perliminary GL3 support to a range of OSG classes
Added support for automatic aliasing of vertex, normal, color etc. arrays to Vertex Attribute equivelants.
Added new osg::GLBeginEndAdapter class for runtime conversion from glBegin/glEnd codes to vertex arrray equivelants.
Added automatic shader source conversion from gl_ to osg_ builtins.
It adds new PrimitiveSet constants for the specific geometry shader primitive types :
- LINES_ADJACENCY
- LINE_STRIP_ADJACENCY
- TRIANGLES_ADJACENCY
- TRIANGLE_STRIP_ADJACENCY
It also adds some missing features to the glsl reader plug'in.

The Texture Pool can be enabled by setting the env var OSG_TEXTURE_POOL_SIZE=size_in_bytes.
Note, setting a size of 1 will result in the TexturePool allocating the minimum number of
textures it can without having to reuse TextureObjects from within the same frame.
Note from Robert Osfield, I've temporarily re-enabled the old focing of of color and depth attachment to avoid regressions on some OpenGL driver. We'll revist this once
we have a mechanism for controlling this override at runtime.
#define FORCE_COLOR_ATTACHMENT 1
#define FORCE_DEPTH_ATTACHMENT 1
- osg::Texture sets GL_MAX_TEXTURE_LEVEL if image uses fewer mipmaps than
number from computeNumberOfMipmaps (and it works!)
- DDS fix to read only available mipmaps
- DDS fixes to read / save 3D textures with mipmaps ( packing == 1 is
required)
- Few cosmetic DDS modifications and comments to make code cleaner (I hope)
Added _isTextureMaxLevelSupported variable to texture extensions. It
could be removed if OSG requires OpenGL version 1.2 by default.
Added simple ComputeImageSizeInBytes function in DDSReaderWrites. In
my opinion it would be better if similar static method was defined for
Image. Then it could be used not only in DDS but other modules as well (I
noticed that Texture/Texture2D do similar computations).
Also attached is an example test.osg model with DDS without last mipmaps to
demonstrate the problem. When loaded into Viewer with current code and moved
far away, so that cube occupies 4 pixels, cube becomes red due to the issue
I described in earlier post. When you patch DDS reader writer with attched
code but no osg::Texture yet, cube becomes blank (at least on my
Windows/NVidia) When you also merge osg::Texture patch cube will look right
and mipmaps will be correct."
database options like recently added to PagedLOD.
Also there is a change to the traverse method:
The previous ProxyNode checks the VisitorType to be a CULL_VISITOR and the
presence of a request handler to submit a database request.
In contrast to that PagedLOD uses the request handler if it is there - even if
the visitor type is not a cull visitor.
The change removes the cull visitor test from the ProxyNode so that it behaves
like the PagedLOD.
I believe that the presence of a request handler in a visitor might be
sufficient to trigger the requests as this is done in the PagedLOD anyway.
Based on rev 10332."
Two implementations of NotifyHandler are currently available:
- StandardNotifyHandler, calls fputs(message, stderr) for severity <= WARN and fputs(message, stdout) for severity > WARN
- WinDebugNotifyHandler, windows users can redirect notifications to windows debug output, notifications can be viewed in output window of the debugger i.e. MSVC or DebugView (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896647.aspx) (see screenshot).
I have seen on osg-users that some people do std::cerr.rdbuf(otherStream.rdbuf()) to redirect notifications. This trick will no longer work since osg::notify() returns internal osg::NotifyStream not std::cout or std::cerr. You can use osg::notify().rdbuf(otherStream.rdbuf()) to do this instead.
Additionally I've made some minor fixes:
- Minor imrovements to osg::notify documentation
- NullStream could crash by deleting stream buffer other than default NullStreamBuffer in the destructor i.e. after osg::notify(osg::DEBUG_FP).rdbuf(otherStream.rdbuf())"
The changes are more or less just beautifications
(when looked at them from the C++ view), but make
wrapping OSG with SWIG easier.
I have tested the changes with both 2.8.1-rc4 and the
current head and would appreciate to incorporate the
changes in both branches.
Here is a description of the changes:
osg/BoundingSphere:
Use the following typedef (like used in BoundingBox)
typedef typename VT::value_type value_type;
instead of
typedef typename vec_type::value_type value_type;
SWIG reports errors on the latter construct.
Also makes it consistent with BoundingBox.
osg/Vec4ub:
Consistent use of "value_type" throughout the file.
osg/Vec?b:
Consistent use of "value_type" throughout the files.
Also changed
typedef char value_type;
to
typedef signed char value_type;
In the case of a simple "char", SWIG assumes a string.
Using "signed char" instead of "char" does not change
the behaviour of the class.
"
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.
to make is easier to write code that can work on DrawElementUByte, UShort or UInt.
Changed the osgTerrain::GeometryTechnique so that it automatically chooses
the use of DrawElementUShort or DrawElementsUInt accordining to the size of the tile.
Because there already exists the option to convert slow path geometry to the fast path by computing an internal fast path alternative, I added a new optimizer option that automatically does this. To check the results I also made some changes to the statistics gathering and rendering.
Somewhat unrelated, but also part of the optimizer I disabled removal of CameraView nodes during RemoveRedundantNodes optimization.
As discussed on the ML, CameraViews were removed from the scenegraph. This solves that issue.
Summary:
-Geometry::areFastPathsUsed now also looks at internalOptimizedGeometry
-Added Optimize option to make all slow path geometry compute their internal fast path alternative
-Added fast geometry counter to the statistics
-Disabled removel of CameraViews in optimizer
"
circumstances under which this bug occur are rather specific, but the
basic problem occurs when one translation unit other than libosg.so
constructs an object that is a subclass of osg::Shape and another
translation unit other than libosg.so tries to perform a dynamic_cast or
other RTTI-based operation on that object. Under these circumstances,
the RTTI operation will fail. In my case, the translation units involved
were an application and osgdb_ive.so. The application constructed a
scene graph that included instantiations of subclasses of osg::Shape.
Depending on how the user ran the application, it would write the scene
graph to an IVE file using osgDB::writeNodeFile(). The dynamic_cast
operations in DataOutputStream::writeShape() would fail on the first
subclass of osg::Shape that was encountered. This is because there were
two different RTTI data objects for all osg::Shape subclasses being
compared: one in the application and one in osgdb_ive.so.
The fix for this is simple. We must ensure that at least one member
function of each of the subclasses of the polymorphic type osg::Shape is
compiled into libosg.so so that there is exactly one RTTI object for
that type in libosg.so. Then, all code linking against libosg.so will
use that single RTTI object. The following message from a list archive
sort of explains the issue and the solution:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/1688156
While the posting has to do with Boost.Python, the problem applies to
C++ libraries in general."
The fix was to convert the osg::State to use C pointers for the set of applied PerContexProgram objects, and use the osg::Oberver mechanism to avoid dangling pointers for being maintained in osg::State.
methods
getProjectionMatrixAsOrtho()
getProjectionMatrixAsFrustum()
getProjectionMatrixAsPerspective()
getViewMatrixAsLookAt() (2x)
are now const, as they only call const methods of osg::Matrixf/d.
