forcing users to use osgDB::readRef*File() methods. The later is preferable as it closes a potential threading bug when using paging databases in conjunction
with the osgDB::Registry Object Cache. This threading bug occurs when one thread gets an object from the Cache via an osgDB::read*File() call where only
a pointer to the object is passed back, so taking a reference to the object is delayed till it gets reassigned to a ref_ptr<>, but at the same time another
thread calls a flush of the Object Cache deleting this object as it's referenceCount is now zero. Using osgDB::readREf*File() makes sure the a ref_ptr<> is
passed back and the referenceCount never goes to zero.
To ensure the OSG builds when OSG_PROVIDE_READFILE is to OFF the many cases of osgDB::read*File() usage had to be replaced with a ref_ptr<> osgDB::readRef*File()
usage. The avoid this change causing lots of other client code to be rewritten to handle the use of ref_ptr<> in place of C pointer I introduced a serious of
templte methods in various class to adapt ref_ptr<> to the underly C pointer to be passed to old OSG API's, example of this is found in include/osg/Group:
bool addChild(Node* child); // old method which can only be used with a Node*
tempalte<class T> bool addChild(const osg::ref_ptr<T>& child) { return addChild(child.get()); } // adapter template method
These changes together cover 149 modified files, so it's a large submission. This extent of changes are warrent to make use of the Object Cache
and multi-threaded loaded more robust.

functionality when using Terrain::setVerticalScale. This was caused by
the following call sequence resulting in a lockup:
void Terrain::setVerticalScale(float scale)
CALLS dirtyRegisteredTiles();
void Terrain::dirtyRegisteredTiles(int dirtyMask)
SETS LOCK OpenThreads::ScopedLock<OpenThreads::Mutex> lock(_mutex);
and CALLS (on every tile) setDirtyMask(dirtyMask);
void TerrainTile::setDirtyMask(int dirtyMask)
CALLS _terrain->updateTerrainTileOnNextFrame(this);
void Terrain::updateTerrainTileOnNextFrame(TerrainTile* terrainTile)
SETS LOCK OpenThreads::ScopedLock<OpenThreads::Mutex> lock(_mutex);
******* PROBLEM - since lock has already been set! ********
The suggested fix submitted changes from using Mutex to ReentrantMutex.
"
disable pragmas that turn off specific warnings for MSVC.
Unfortunately it's presence is only checked in osg/Export header,
making other Export headers disable warnings no matter what, which is
kind of incoherent.
My fix adds #include <osg/Config> to every Export header. I've also
unified checking whether to disable warnings to current osg/Export
way:
#if defined(_MSC_VER) && defined(OSG_DISABLE_MSVC_WARNINGS).
Attachment contains all changed Export files in their original locations."
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.
