algorithm consisting of two consequent phases :
- first phase is a GLSL shader performing object culling and LOD picking ( a culling shader ).
Every culled object is represented as GL_POINT in the input osg::Geometry.
The output of the culling shader is a set of object LODs that need to be rendered.
The output is stored in texture buffer objects. No pixel is drawn to the screen
because GL_RASTERIZER_DISCARD mode is used.
- second phase draws osg::Geometry containing merged LODs using glDrawArraysIndirect()
function. Information about quantity of instances to render, its positions and other
parameters is sourced from texture buffer objects filled in the first phase.
The example uses various OpenGL 4.2 features such as texture buffer objects,
atomic counters, image units and functions defined in GL_ARB_shader_image_load_store
extension to achieve its goal and thus will not work on graphic cards with older OpenGL
versions.
The example was tested on Linux and Windows with NVidia 570 and 580 cards.
The tests on AMD cards were not conducted ( due to lack of it ).
The tests were performed using OSG revision 14088.
The main advantages of this rendering method :
- instanced rendering capable of drawing thousands of different objects with
almost no CPU intervention ( cull and draw times are close to 0 ms ).
- input objects may be sourced from any OSG graph ( for example - information about
object points may be stored in a PagedLOD graph. This way we may cover the whole
countries with trees, buildings and other objects ).
Furthermore if we create osgDB plugins that generate data on the fly, we may
generate information for every grass blade for that country.
- every object may have its own parameters and thus may be distinct from other objects
of the same type.
- relatively low memory footprint ( single object information is stored in a few
vertex attributes ).
- no GPU->CPU roundtrip typical for such methods ( method uses atomic counters
and glDrawArraysIndirect() function instead of OpenGL queries. This way
information about quantity of rendered objects never goes back to CPU.
The typical GPU->CPU roundtrip cost is about 2 ms ).
- this example also shows how to render dynamic objects ( objects that may change
its position ) with moving parts ( like car wheels or airplane propellers ) .
The obvious extension to that dynamic method would be the animated crowd rendering.
- rendered objects may be easily replaced ( there is no need to process the whole
OSG graphs, because these graphs store only positional information ).
The main disadvantages of a method :
- the maximum quantity of objects to render must be known beforehand
( because texture buffer objects holding data between phases have constant size ).
- OSG statistics are flawed ( they don't know anymore how many objects are drawn ).
- osgUtil::Intersection does not work
Example application may be used to make some performance tests, so below you
will find some extended parameter description :
--skip-dynamic - skip rendering of dynamic objects if you only want to
observe static object statistics
--skip-static - the same for static objects
--dynamic-area-size - size of the area for dynamic rendering. Default = 1000 meters
( square 1000m x 1000m ). Along with density defines
how many dynamic objects is there in the example.
--static-area-size - the same for static objects. Default = 2000 meters
( square 2000m x 2000m ).
Example application defines some parameters (density, LOD ranges, object's triangle count).
You may manipulate its values using below described modifiers:
--density-modifier - density modifier in percent. Default = 100%.
Density ( along with LOD ranges ) defines maximum
quantity of rendered objects. registerType() function
accepts maximum density ( in objects per square kilometer )
as its parameter.
--lod-modifier - defines the LOD ranges. Default = 100%.
--triangle-modifier - defines the number of triangles in finally rendered objects.
Default = 100 %.
--instances-per-cell - for static rendering the application builds OSG graph using
InstanceCell class ( this class is a modified version of Cell class
from osgforest example - it builds simple quadtree from a list
of static instances ). This parameter defines maximum number
of instances in a single osg::Group in quadtree.
If, for example, you modify it to value=100, you will see
really big cull time in OSG statistics ( because resulting
tree generated by InstanceCell will be very deep ).
Default value = 4096 .
--export-objects - write object geometries and quadtree of instances to osgt files
for later analysis.
--use-multi-draw - use glMultiDrawArraysIndirect() instead of glDrawArraysIndirect() in a
draw shader. Thanks to this we may render all ( different ) objects
using only one draw call. Requires OpenGL version 4.3 and some more
work from me, because now it does not work ( probably I implemented
it wrong, or Windows NVidia driver has errors, because it hangs
the apllication at the moment ).
This application is inspired by Daniel Rákos work : "GPU based dynamic geometry LOD" that
may be found under this address : http://rastergrid.com/blog/2010/10/gpu-based-dynamic-geometry-lod/
There are however some differences :
- Daniel Rákos uses GL queries to count objects to render, while this example
uses atomic counters ( no GPU->CPU roundtrip )
- this example does not use transform feedback buffers to store intermediate data
( it uses texture buffer objects instead ).
- I use only the vertex shader to cull objects, whereas Daniel Rákos uses vertex shader
and geometry shader ( because only geometry shader can send more than one primitive
to transform feedback buffers ).
- objects in the example are drawn using glDrawArraysIndirect() function,
instead of glDrawElementsInstanced().
Finally there are some things to consider/discuss :
- the whole algorithm exploits nice OpenGL feature that any GL buffer
may be bound as any type of buffer ( in our example a buffer is once bound
as a texture buffer object, and later is bound as GL_DRAW_INDIRECT_BUFFER ).
osg::TextureBuffer class has one handy method to do that trick ( bindBufferAs() ),
and new primitive sets use osg::TextureBuffer as input.
For now I added new primitive sets to example ( DrawArraysIndirect and
MultiDrawArraysIndirect defined in examples/osggpucull/DrawIndirectPrimitiveSet.h ),
but if Robert will accept its current implementations ( I mean - primitive
sets that have osg::TextureBuffer in constructor ), I may add it to
osg/include/PrimitiveSet header.
- I used BufferTemplate class writen and published by Aurelien in submission forum
some time ago. For some reason this class never got into osg/include, but is
really needed during creation of UBOs, TBOs, and possibly SSBOs in the future.
I added std::vector specialization to that template class.
- I needed to create similar osg::Geometries with variable number of vertices
( to create different LODs in my example ). For this reason I've written
some code allowing me to create osg::Geometries from osg::Shape descendants.
This code may be found in ShapeToGeometry.* files. Examples of use are in
osggpucull.cpp . The question is : should this code stay in example, or should
it be moved to osgUtil ?
- this remark is important for NVidia cards on Linux and Windows : if
you have "Sync to VBlank" turned ON in nvidia-settings and you want to see
real GPU times in OSG statistics window, you must set the power management
settings to "Prefer maximum performance", because when "Adaptive mode" is used,
the graphic card's clock may be slowed down by the driver during program execution
( On Linux when OpenGL application starts in adaptive mode, clock should work
as fast as possible, but after one minute of program execution, the clock slows down ).
This happens when GPU time in OSG statistics window is shorter than 3 ms.

lists when drawing lots of batches and noticed that my program
generated a lot of unneeded glClientActiveTexture calls. Digging
deeper I found out it came from State::disableTexCoordPointer where
the function would call glClientActiveTexture but not
glDisableClientState because the geometry didn't have texture
coordinates for that channel. This is because in our scene there are
some geometries that have move than one uv channels making
State::_texCoordArrayList grow. Then the method
State::applyDisablingOfVertexAttributes() will call
disableTexCoordPointer multiple times.
I rearrange the method a little to combat this. Now the logic has the

If Drawable::getBoundingBox would compute an invalid bounding box (if it was for example empty) it would make a bounding sphere with a infinite radius which counts as a valid sphere in osg.
Attached is a small fix."
- Added apply(Drawable) and apply(Geometry) to NodeVisitor
- Added accept(NodeVisitor) method to Drawable/Geometry
- Added traverse(NodeVisitor) to Geode which calls accept(NodeVisitor) on all Drawables
- Updated CullVisitor to use new apply(Drawable) to handle drawables. The apply(Billboard) method still manually handles the drawables since it is depends on the billboard settings. I needed to disable the traverse within billboard to prevent duplicate traversal of drawables.
- Update other osgUtil node visitors (GLObjectsVisitor, IncrementalCompileOperation, ..) to use new apply(Drawable) method.

ran into two issues.
At first you get a bunch of warnings that osg::ComputeBoundCallback
and osg::UpdateCallback were unsupported wrapper classes when
converting fbx models with skeletal animation to osg(t/b).
The second issue was that when reading, the readers fail to read the
ComputeBoundCallback and UpdateCallback and set them to NULL which
messes up the RigGeometry.
Because a RigGeometry makes his own classes in the constructor it
might be preferable to not write them at all, because now those
classes are being made two times when reading a RigGeometry. But after
thinking about this that would place too much limits on them (you
won't be able to share or name them and save that information or make
a new inherited class from them and write that one) So I ended up
thinking the best way was to just write the files.

attributes in vec3b format. It looks like my compiler takes the wrong
overload and outputs integers instead of characters. The problem is
that vec3b is of type signed char and that is not the same as char (
see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/436513/char-signed-char-char-unsigned-char
) and visual studio 2013 will promote it to integer when choosing an
overload.
It looks like that the InputStream class already takes care of this
issue (if it didn't it would have read everything ok and I would have
not even stumbled upon this bug. :) )"
There was code in the osgViewer/Viewer.cpp and osgViewer/CompositeViewer.cpp that transformed the Y-coordinates of an event. The code in the composite viewer did however miss the touch-data of the event. I thought that it should really be the GUIEventAdapter that should know about this, and hence I added the
GUIEventAdapter::setMouseYOrientationAndUpdateCoords which is re-computing the coordinates. First I simply added a boolean to the setMouseYOrientation function:
setMouseYOrientation( MouseYOrientation, bool updatecooreds=false );
but then the serializer complained.
This function is called from both the Viewer and the CompositeViewer. We have not tested from the viewer, but I cannot see it would not work from visual inspection.
The other change is in MultiTouchTrackballManipulator::handleMultiTouchDrag. I have removed the normalisation. The reason for that is that it normalised into screen coordinates from 0,0 to 1,1. The problem with that is that if you have a pinch event and you keep the distance say 300 pixels between your fingers, these 300 pixels represent 0.20 of the screen in the horizontal domain, but 0.3 of the screen in the vertical domain. A rotation of the pinch-fingers will hence result in a zoom in, as the normalised distance is changing between them.
A consequence of this is that I have changed the pan-code to use the same algorithm as the middle-mouse-pan.
The rest of it is very similar from previous revision, and there has been some fine-tuning here and there.

osg/GL2Extensions was incorrectly defining GL_RED_SNORM and GL_RG_SNORM as part of the definitions for OpenGL v3.1. However, a quick review of the 3.1 spec indicates that these are not part of the 3.1 standard.
My attached change moves these definitions out of the #ifndef GL_VERSION_3_1 conditional block, and defines them conditionally if not already defined. This allows the DDS plugin to build for GL3.

To the Lua plugin added support for assigned lua functions to C++ osg::Objects via the new osg::CallbackObject mechanism. To invoke the scripts function from C++ one must get the CallbackObject and call run on it.
Renamed ScriptCallback to ScriptNodeCallback to avoid possibly confusion between osg::CallbackObject and the ScriptNodeCallback.
One solution is naturally to create a new class that would inherit the osg::ComputeBoundVisitor, and use that. I don't like that idea as the ComputeBoundVisitor does actually have what I need - it is only hidden in a protected function.
I am therefor suggesting a slight generalization of the ComputeBoundVisitor with the attached patch, which is tested.
The patch has two parts:
we add applyBBox() so that one can use that in a customized traverse-function and add a bbox to the visitor. I considered calling this function expandByBBox(), but I though applyBBox was better.
The MatrixStack is made available to the outside world. That enables a traverse-function to do whatever it wishes.
I do actually only need one of the two, as I can implement what I wish either way, but adding getMatrixStack() will make more generic expansions possible.
"
From Robert Osfield, changed the name of the new applyBBox(..) method to applyBoundingBox(..) to keep it's naming more consistent with the rest of the OSG.
I added a new tag to p3d called forward_touch_event_to_device and renamed the existing forward_event_to_device to forward_mouse_event_to_device. This new tag will transmit touches to the virtual trackpad as touch events. I added the MultitouchTrackball to the p3d-app so zooming and moving a model remotely should now work, if you use forward_touch_event_to_device. I kept (and fixed) forward_mouse_event_to_device for background compatibility, so old presentations works as in previous versions, without the ability to zoom + scale. of course.
forward_touch_event_to_device needs some more testing, (e.g. with image-streams and keystone, afaik there’s no support for touch-events...) but for a first version it works nice.

From Robert Osfield, changed Roni's code to use a #define GETDEVICEPIXELRATIO to access the versioned Qt devicePixelRatio() method to avoid duplication of the Qt version checking.

The most derived class(E) handles the instantiation of A (osg::Object), but all have to be responsible in case they are the ones instantiated.

I've added osg::Object to the initalization list of EventHandler and GUIEventHandler copy constructors, because both classes are instantiables.

the wrappers it contains. The registration creates a prototype
object for all of the wrapped classes. For some of the higher-level
classes this can be a bit heavy.
I noticed a problem with a model which required a single class from
osgSim. When osgdb_serializers_osgsim.so was loaded it registered
wrappers and created prototype objects for all of the osgSim classes,
including osgSim::ScalarBar. The constructor for that class creates
several drawables, and loads arial.ttf using the freetype plugin. I
don't need that, and don't even ship the font or plugin with my
application, resulting in an unexplained warning message loading
the model.
I've modified the ObjectWrapper class to defer the prototype object
creation until if & when actually required."
To make easier "lazy apply" on the customer OpenGL shaders, the easiest way was to add an accessor to current OSG state's UniformMap.

Provided are lua, python and V8 (for javascript) plugins that just open up enough of a link to the respective libs to run a script, there is no scene graph <-> script communication in current implementation.

"The idea of this new OpenGL feature is :
- set RestartIndex = "n"
- draw elements strip
-> when the index is "n", the strip is "stopped" and restarted
It's very usefull for drawing tiles with a single strip and a "restart" at the end of each row.
The idea a an OSG StateAttribute is :
Usually we use to build geometry from code, because software modelers rarely support it (and 3d file formats doesn't support it) :
-RootNode <= "PrimitiveRestartIndex=0" // So now, we know that our restart index is 0 for all drawables under this node
|
- Drawable 1 : triangles => as usual
|
- Drawable 2 : triangles strip => as usual
|
- Drawable 3 : triangles strip + "GL_PRIMITIVE_RESTART" mode = ON => use the restart index
|
- Drawable 4 : triangles strip + "GL_PRIMITIVE_RESTART" mode = ON => use the restart index
|
- Drawable 5 : triangles strip => as usual
With a StateAttribute, it's easy for the developper to say "0 will be my restart index for all this object" and then activate the mode only on some nodes.
The main problem is if you set and restart index value which is not included in the vertex array (for exemple set restart index = 100 but you have only 50 vertex). There is no problem with OpenGL, but some OSG algorithms will try to access the vertex[100] and will segfault.
To solve this, I think there is two ways :
1/ add restart index in osg::PrimitiveSet and use this value in all algorithms. It's a lot of work, maybe dangerous, and it concern only a few situations : developpers who use this extension should be aware of advanced OpenGL (and OSG) data management
2/ use a StateAttribute, and choose a "correct" restart index. In my applications, I always use "0" as a restart index and duplicate the first vertex (vertex[0] = vertex[1]). So there is no difference for OpenGL and all OSG algorithms works properly.

"The attached file contains:
- a per-context read counter in GLBufferObject::BufferEntry
- a global client counter in BufferData
- the glue between Texture* and Image client counter
"
I think this is necessary on OpenGL 3.2+ since this is no more "default" locations in the OpenGL specs.
The default behaviour stay the same.
There is a few new methods on osg::State :
- resetVertexAttributeAlias : reset all vertex alias to osg's default ones
- set**Alias : set a vertex attribute alias configuration
- setAttributeBindingList : set the attribute binding list (allow to specify an empty list if you're using "layout" qualifier in glsl code to specify the bindings. This save some CPU operations)"
// A custom class
namespace CustomDomain {
class MyGroup : public osg::Group
{
public:
META_Node( CustomDomain, MyGroup );

const std::string& getMyName() const;
void setMyID( int id );
int getMyID() const;

ADD_STRING_SERIALIZER( MyName, std::string() );
{
UPDATE_TO_VERSION_SCOPED( 1 ); // Updated for a new domain version
ADD_INT_SERIALIZER( MyID, 0 );
}
}
Save the class instance as follows:
osgDB::writeNodeFile( *myGroup, "serializer_test.osgt", new osgDB::Options("CustomDomains=MyDomain:1") );
The output file will include the domain version definition and all the class data, and can be read back. We can also force setting the domain version by the CustomDomains option while reading the saved files. If we save the class instance without any options, MyID will be ignored because the default domain version is 0.
This may help third-party libraries like osgEarth to maintain their own serializers without regarding to the OSG soversion changes.
Another feature added is a more robust binary format, which in fact adds a size-offset at each block's beginning. When there are problems or unsupported data types while reading, we can now directly jump to the block end indicated by the offset value. So a .osgb file will automatically ignore bad data and read remains as normal (at present it will fail at all). This feature will not break the backward compatibility, and can be disabled by setting "RobustBinaryFormat=false" while writing out.
Hope these changes can work smoothly with present and future community projects. Maybe we should also consider have an osgserializer example to test and demonstrate all things we can do now."

* curl: added an optimized check for file-existance, now only the headers are requested and checked, instead of reading the whole file and handle it with a ReaderWriter
* p3d: fixed a bug, where the existence of a local file may prevent the remote loading of a file with the same name.

The set method modify the buffer object of the BufferData while the get method returned the buffer object of the Image.
I've also removed the _bufferObject member of Image (not used anymore)."

* ZeroConfDevice does now return FILE_NOT_HANDLED instead of FILE_NOT_FOUND
* present3D supports multiple devices per env-var P3D_DEVICE, separate multiple device with a space
I refactored parts the p3d-plugin, the curl-plugin and parts of Registry and ReaderWriter. Currently the p3d-plugin tries to open all remote files with the help of the curl-plugin.
I added a new method to Registry called getReaderWriterForProtocolAndExtension. which will return a ReaderWriter which is capable in handling the remote file for the given protocol and extension. If no readerwriter is found for the given extension, a list is built of all readerwriters supporting the given protocol and this list is checked for support of wildcards (extension = "*"). If anything matches it get returned.
I added this principle also to the Registry, so now it's possible to register a generic ReaderWriter which can handle all filetypes for a given protocol, similar what curl is doing. All you have to do is to load the plugin at startup. The curl-fallback is still in place.
With these changes it is now possible to reference a movie inside a presentation without a server-address, read the presentation (with curl) and stream the movie with the correct plugin (e.g. QTKit)

* avfoundation: added support for IOS (CoreVideo-support is still in development, works only for SDK >= 6.0, set IPHONE_SDKVER in cMake accordingly)
* zeroconf: added ZeroConf-device-plugin (Mac/Win only, linux implementation missing) to advertise and discover services via ZeroConf/Bonjour, on windows you'll need the Bonjour SDK from Apple
* osgosc: modified the example to demonstrate the usage of the ZeroConf-plugin (start the example with the command-line-argument --zeroconf)
* SlideShowConstructor: enable/disable CoreVideo via a environment variable (P3D_ENABLE_CORE_VIDEO)
* RestHttp: mouse-motion-events get interpolated
* RestHttp: unhandled http-requests get sent as an user-event to the event-queue, all arguments get attached as user-values to the event
* modified some CMakeModules to work correctly when compiling for IOS
* fixed a compile-error for IOS in GraphicsWindowIOS
* some minor bugfixes"
This issue can be reproduced:
1. Create osgViewer window,
2. Push right&left mouse buttons on the osgViewer window,
3. Move mouse out of window, and release right&left mouse buttons.
osgViewer window handle only first mouse release, as result window thinks that we did not released second mouse button.
I attached fix for this issue."
I fixed some bugs and did some more tests with both of the video-plugins. I integrated CoreVideo with osgPresentation, ImageStream has a new virtual method called createSuitableTexture which returns NULL for default implementations. Specialized implementations like the QTKit-plugin return a CoreVideo-texture. I refactored the code in SlideShowConstructor::createTexturedQuad to use a texture returned from ImageStream::createSuitableTexture.
I did not use osgDB::readObjectFile to get the texture-object, as a lot of image-related code in SlideShowConstructor had to be refactored to use a texture. My changes are minimal and should not break existing code.
There's one minor issue with CoreVideo in general: As the implementation is asynchronous, there might be no texture available, when first showing the video the first frame. I am a bit unsure how to tackle this problem, any input on this is appreciated.
Back to the AVFoundation-plugin: the current implementation does not support CoreVideo as the QTKit-plugin supports it. There's no way to get decoded frames from AVFoundation stored on the GPU, which is kind of sad. I added some support for CoreVideo to transfer decoded frames back to the GPU, but in my testings the performance was worse than using the normal approach using glTexSubImage. This is why I disabled CoreVideo for AVFoundation. You can still request a CoreVideoTexture via readObjectFile, though.

Added template readFile(..) function to make it more convinient to cast to a specific object type.
Added support for osgGA::Device to osgViewer.
Added sdl plugin to provides very basic joystick osgGA::Device integration.

that. All related serializers are also modified so that the
backward-compatibility bug reported by Farshid can be fixed.

From Robert Osfield, removed the use of osg::Referenced and creating the proxy object on the heap.
I worked with a osg::Constraint and found strange part of code:
class OSGMANIPULATOR_EXPORT Constraint : public osg::Referenced
{
public:
...
virtual bool constrain(ScaleUniformCommand& command) const { return constrain((MotionCommand&)command); }
virtual bool constrain(const Rotate3DCommand& command) { return constrain((MotionCommand&)command); }
...
If i use osgManipulator::Rotate3DCommand then method Rotate3DCommand::accept(const Constraint& constraint) calls Constraint::constrain(MotionCommand&) instead Constraint:: constrain(const Rotate3DCommand&).
If you replace
virtual bool constrain(const Rotate3DCommand& command) { return constrain((MotionCommand&)command); }
on to
virtual bool constrain(Rotate3DCommand& command) const { return constrain((MotionCommand&)command); }
then all works correctly.

I tested it with clang 3.1 and it seems that clang is enforcing the use of the same type for all parameters in this builtin. Looking at the function declaration [1]
bool __sync_bool_compare_and_swap (type *ptr, type oldval type newval, ...)
it seems to be doing the right thing: here the same type is used for *ptr, oldval and newval.

and TabPlaneDragger.cpp:
TabPlaneDragger(float handleScaleFactor=20.0f);
The reason for this is that the default OSG tab sizes are way bigger than
those we used in our application so far. And since handleScaleFactor_
is already a (constant) class member, I see no objection against making
it user defined."
My previous patch for Atomic Counter Uniform provide new template implementation
of Matrix{2,3,4}x{2,3,4}{fd}. This new implementation use Column-Major Matrix.
Original code define matrix as Row-Major matrix like other Matrix in OSG, and
my matrix implementation break compatibility with previous code.
For example osg_normalMatrix define in osg::State report by Roland Hill.
Thanks to Paul Martz to spot me when the bug appear."
- add non square matrix
- add double
- add all uniform type available in OpenGL 4.2
- backward compatibility for Matrixd to set/get an float uniform matrix
- update of IVE / Wrapper ReadWriter
implementation of AtomicCounterBuffer based on BufferIndexBinding
add example that use AtomicCounterBuffer and show rendering order of fragments,
original idea from geeks3d.com."
