hpux. I have skipped irix this time as irix is too dead to keep osg building

As usual, solaris does not like member templates in stl containers.
Some headers missing and link problems due to missing libraries."
There was some performance problems after a long run, because textures created with copyTexImage2D were not reused.
After investigation, there is a problem with the Texture Pool when a texture object is created with an empty profile, and then move after creation to TextureObjectSet with good profile using setAllocated method.
I have just changed a little bit the code of Texture2D::copyTexImage2D, to generate the texture object with the good profile at the start."
A few things remain to do:
* The binding between a uniform block in a shader program and a buffer indexed target number is fixed, like a vertex attribute binding. This is too restrictive because that binding can be changed without relinking the program. This mapping should be done by name in the same way that uniform values are handled i.e., like a pseudo state attribute;
* There's no direct way yet to query for the offset of uniforms in uniform block, so only the std140 layout is really usable. A helper class that implemented the std140 rules would be quite helpful for setting up uniform blocks without having to link a program first;
* There's no direct support for querying parameters such as the maximum block length, minimum offset alignment, etc. Having that information available outside of the draw thread would make certain instancing techniques easier to implement."
attached you'll find the second part of the IOS-submission. It contains
* GraphicsWindowIOS, which supports external and "retina" displays,
multisample-buffers (for IOS > 4.0) and multi-touch-events
* an ios-specific implementation of the imageio-plugin
* an iphone-viewer example
* cMake support for creating a xcode-project
* an updated ReadMe-file describing the necessary steps to get a
working xcode-project-file from CMake
Please credit Thomas Hogarth and Stephan Huber for these changes.
This brings the ios-support in line with the git-fork on github. It
needs some more testing and some more love, the cmake-process is still a
little complicated.
You'll need a special version of the freetype lib compiled for IOS,
there's one bundled in the OpenFrameworks-distribution, which can be used."
Notes, from Robert Osfield, modified CMakeLists.txt files so that the IOS specific paths are within IF(APPLE) blocks.
recently we noticed a little mistake for 3DS files using instances of the same meshs: Every groupnode gets the same name instead of the (correct) instance name of the object. The fix only consists of two additional lines which check whether an instance_name is given for the object and then uses this one instead of the node name."

serializers and dotosgwrappers. It includes reading/writing supports
for the two new shader types and the GL_PATCHES enum. The
setParameterfv() method is not wrapped at present because it is still
not finished.
Enum serialziers don't require back-compatibility checks if only

2: minor tweak for a DebugHUD drawn improperly case when multiple slave views shared one window. It now uses slave view viewport to correctly position DebugHUD.
3: deactivated ConvexPolyhedron notifications (they were accidentaly activated when you replaced osg::notify calls with OSG_NOTIFY macro). These warnings are useful only for shadow map developer working on shadow volume optimizations. So there is no sense in having them active all the time."
Problem 1 :
With GLSL, multi pass to apply each shadow map is not required.
Problem 2 :
GLSL code use "shadow2DProj" build-in function to look up in shadow texture.
Projection is orthogonal so "shadow2D" build-in function is sufficient.
Problem 3:
Bad calcul in
osgShadow::ParallelSplitShadowMap::calculateLightViewProjectionFormFrustum(..)
provide some visual error in specific configuration.
to reproduce pssm_bug.jpg, you need to add a light direction in osgshadow.cpp example (done in joint osgshadow.cpp file)
then "osgshadow --noUpdate --pssm --maxFarDist 500 --minNearSplit 500 --mapcount 6 --debug-color model_test.3ds"
As you can see in pssm_bug.jpg and pssm_fix.jpg, performance is really better when Problem 1 is fixed.

osgGA. My approach is to bundle all touchpoints into one custom data
structure which is attached to an GUIEventAdapter.
The current approach simulates a moving mouse for the first touch-point,
so basic manipulators do work, sort of.
I created a MultiTouchTrackballManipulator-class, one touch-point does
rotate the view, two touch-points pan and zoom the view as known from
the iphone or other similar multi-touch-devices. A double-tap (similar
to a double-click) resets the manipulator to its home-position.
The multi-touch-trackball-implementation is not the best, see it as a
first starting point. (there's a demo-video at http://vimeo.com/15017377 )"
serialization libraries. My submission mainly includes:
1. Add two new macros USE_DOTOSGWRAPPER_LIBRARY and
USE_SERIALIZER_WRAPPER_LIBRARY. Applications using static OSG must
include corresponding static-link libraries and use these two macros
to predefine native format wrappers. Please see osgstaticviewer and
present3D in the attachment for details.
2. Add a LibraryWrapper.cpp file in each
osgWrappers/deprecated-dotosg/... and osgWrappers/serializers/...
subfolder, which calls all USE_...WRAPPERS macros inside. The
LibraryWrapper file is automatically generated by the
wrapper_includer.cpp (with some slight fixes), which is also attached
for your reference. The deprecated-dotosg/osgAnimation is not included
because it doesn't us REGISTER_DOTOSGWRAPPER to define its wrappers.
3. Modify the ReaderWriterOSG.cpp to prevent calling loadWrappers()
when static build.
4. An uncorrelated fix to Serializer and ObjectWrapper.cpp, which
ensures version variables of serialziers are initialized, and
serializers out-of-version are not written to model files.

templated constructor of std::pair not being able to automatically

Initial email from Tim : "I've implemented using a timestamp, available with ARB_timer_query and OpenGL 3.3, to gather GPU stats. This is nice because it can accurately fix the GPU draw time with respect to the other times on the stats graph, rather than having to estimate the wall time of the end of GPU drawing. This also prevents anomalies like the GPU phase starting before the draw phase..."
Changes to Tim's submission by Robert: Removal of need for swap buffer callback in ViewerBase.cpp, by
integrating a osg::State::frameCompleted() method that does the stats timing collection. Introduction of a
GraphicsContext::swapBuffersCallbackOrImplementation() method that calls the State::frameCompleted() and
the swap buffers callback or the swapImplementation as required.
functionalities. It includes two main parts: a version checking macro
for handling backward-compatiblity since 3.0, and enhencement of
current schema mechanism. I also change the option handling process to
use getPluginStringData(), and add new USE_SERIALIZER_WRAPPER macro in
the Registry header to allow for static-link usage as well.
The enhencement of schema machanism just tells the type of each
serializer while outputting them, such as:
osg::Group = Children:1
The meaning of the number can be found in the osgDB/Serializer header,
BaseSerializer::Type enum. It may help 3rdparty utilities understand
the structure of the wrapper and do some reflection work in the
future.
The new macro UPDATE_TO_VERSION can help indicate the InputStream (no
affect on the writer) that a serializer is added/removed since certain
OSG version. An example wrapper file is also attached. The
Geode_modified.cpp is based on the serializers/osg/Geode.cpp file
(hey, don't merge it :-), but assumes that a new user serializer
'Test' is added since version 65 (that is, the OSG_SOVERSION):
REGISTER_OBJECT_WRAPPER( Geode, ... )
{
ADD_USER_SERIALIZER( Drawables ); // origin ones
UPDATE_TO_VERSION( 65 )
{
ADD_USER_SERIALIZER( Test ); // a serializer added from version 65
}
}
All kinds of ADD_... macros following UPDATE_TO_VERSION will
automatically apply the updated version. The braces here are only for
typesetting!
While reading an osgt/osgb/osgx file, OSG will now check if the file
version (recorded as the writer's soversion, instead of previous
meaningless "#Version 2") is equal or greater than Test's version, and
try reading it, or just ignore it if file version is lesser.
And we also have the REMOVE_SERIALIZER macro will mark a named
serializer as removed in some version, with which all files generated
by further versions will just ignore it:
UPDATE_TO_VERSION( 70 )
{
REMOVE_SERIALIZER( Test );
}
This means that from version 70, the serializer Test is removed (but
not actually erased from the list) and should not be read anymore. If
the read file version is less than 70 (and equal or greater than 65),
Test will still be handled when reading; otherwise it will be ignored
to keep compatiblity on different OSG versions.
"
As it works (for our needs at least) I've done and attached a tar.gz file for the VRML2 plugin with a new part to write a VRML2 file from an osg one.
The read part is the same as in osg 2.9.9.
The write part code is in convertToVRML.cpp and .h files. It works for some osg nodes (group, geode, matrixTransform, positionAttitudeTransform and geometry). Textures are converted to jpeg (if not translucent) or png (if translucent).
There are some options that could be given to the writer (with -O switch) :
convertTextures=0 to copy textures without converting them to jpeg or png
convertTextures=-1 do not copy textures, keep them in their original format and location
convertTextures=-2 do not use textures, parse only geometry
convertTextures=-3 (default) convert textures to jpeg or png ones.
textureUnit=X in case of multiple textures, X= texture unit to use (default value=0)
directoryTexture=aPath when texture will be copied, it will be in this directory, not in the current one."
Also I've done the osguserstats example. I've kept the "toy example" that was in the modified osgviewer.cpp I had sent you, because they show different uses of custom stats lines (a value displayed directly, a value without bars and a value with bars and graph). I also added a function and a thread that will sleep for a given number of milliseconds and record this time in the stats. I think it clearly shows how to record the time some processing takes and add that to the stats graph, whether the processing takes place on the same thread as the viewer or on another thread.
BTW, feel free to modify the colors I've given to each user stats line... I'm not very artistic. :-)
I've also added more doc comments to the addUserStats() method in ViewerEventHandlers, so hopefully the arguments are clear and the way to get the results you want is also clear. Maybe I went overboard, but the function makes some assumptions that may not be obvious and has many arguments, so I preferred to be explicit."
A new AutoRotateMode was added. I named it ROTATE_TO_AXIS to be
consistent with the other AutoRotateModes, even though it changes from
how is called in Billboard (AXIAL_ROT).
Setters and getters for rotation axis and normal were also added to the
AutoTransform class interface.
The implementation is mainly a copy-paste from Billboard code.

Now we can use ffmpeg to render webcam video (using the vfwcap device) under Windows:
osgmovie 0 -e ffmpeg -O "format=vfwcap frame_rate=25"
The number 0 just indicates a default device number in ffmpeg.
I think this can work under Linux, too, and should be a bit better than comparing the filename with a '/dev/' string. Just type:
./osgmovie /dev/yourcam -e ffmpeg -O "format=video4linux2 frame_rate=30 size=320x240""
The user calls statsHandler->addUserStatsLine() providing:
- the label they want for that line in the graph
- the text and bar colors they want in the graph
- the stats names they want queried (one for time taken, one for begin and one for end time) and a few settings for how these will be displayed.
Then all they have to do is call viewer->getViewerStats()->setAttribute(framenumber, name, value) for their three attributes each frame and they'll have their stats in the graph.
They can also give only a time taken attribute (or some other numerical value they want printed, which can be averaged or not), or only begin+end attributes, and the graph will accordingly display only the (average or not) numerical value or only the bars.
Along the way I cleaned up the existing code a bit:
* Each time the setUpScene() or createCameraTimeStats() methods added a line to the graph, they did pretty much the same thing, so I moved that into a separate method called createTimeStatsLine() which is called by setUpScene() and createCameraTimeStats().
* I moved the font, characterSize, startBlocks and leftPos variables to member variables, since they were being passed around everywhere but were set only once at the beginning.
* The geode on which stats lines are added is also kept in a member variable, and createCameraTimeStats() adds the per-camera lines to this geode instead of returning a new Group with a new Geode. This further reduces the number of variables the createCameraTimeStats() method needs as input.

- using m.getPerspective( fovy, tmp, tmp, tmp ) to get only FOV does not work.
The reason is that getPerspective is taking tmp as reference - thus all the three variables points to the same memory location. Then, zNear (third parameter) is used inside the method, while zNear content was spoiled by zFar that was written to the same place, resulting in fovy set to nan. I consider that it is the right of programmers to use 3 times tmp as parameter and I fixed the code in the method. I have done the same for getFrustum and getLookAt.
- I fixed makeFrustum to accept infinite zFar. (Some graphics techniques like shadow volumes require placing zFar to infinity to avoid visual artifacts.)"
Note from Robert Osfield, change the local near & far variable names to temp_near and temp_far MS Visual Studio has a record of using near and far names.

performance option, I added a flag to control whether the depth writing
pass is performed.
Since text is alpha-blended when rendering, it is placed in the
transparent bin and rendered back to front. Writing to the depth buffer
should therefore be unnecessary. Indeed, rendering something behind text
(or any blended object) after that object is drawn will give incorrect
results whether the depth buffer is written or not. I therefore think it
is safe to keep this option off by default. Users can turn it on for any
special needs they have.
I did not fix the existing backdrop implementations to work with the new
code since this new method of rendering intrinsically handles backdrops
correctly. Its results are more accurate than all of the existing
backdrop implementations. Its only downside is that it requires two
passes if depth buffer updates are desired, whereas DEPTH_RANGE and
POLYGON_OFFSET achieve their (less accurate) results in one pass. The
NO_DEPTH_BUFFER method also only uses one pass, but it disables depth
tests and not depth writes so will have serious problems if anything is
drawn in front of the text before OR after the text is drawn.
Given the better all-around behavior of the new method, I believe the
other backdrop implementations can be safely removed. Code that adjusts
the backdrop implementation will of course be broken if the member
functions are removed. For this reason I left them in, but set the new
rendering method as the default backdrop implementation. At the very
least I think the old backdrop implementations should be deprecated and
removed at a later date.
"
Note from Robert Osfield, testing this submission with osgtext I found that the
text would not render correctly when different text labels were overlapping
in deth and screen space. I change _enableDepthWrites to default to true and
found the that which artifacts still occurred around the alpha blended edges
the artifacts where better than issue with occlusion of nearer pixels that was
happening with _enableDepthWrites set to false.I therefore set the
_enableDepthWrites to true as I feel it's the lesser of the two artefacts.
The following code snippet will reproduce this issue:
Code:
osg::Vec2 vec(0.f, 0.f);
osg::Array* sharedArray = new osg::Vec2Array(1, & vec);
// create 2 geometries sharing same array
osg::Geometry* geom0 = new osg::Geometry;
osg::Geometry* geom1 = new osg::Geometry;
geom0->setVertexArray(sharedArray);
geom1->setVertexArray(sharedArray);
osg::ref_ptr<osg::Geode> geode = new osg::Geode;
geode->addDrawable(geom0);
geode->addDrawable(geom1);
std::stringstream buffer;
// write node
osg::ref_ptr<osgDB::Options> options = new osgDB::Options("Ascii");
osgDB::ReaderWriter* rw = osgDB::Registry::instance()->getReaderWriterForExtension("osgt");
osgDB::ReaderWriter::WriteResult wr = rw->writeNode(*geode, buffer, options.get());
// print result; array will be written twice with full content, though with same ID
std::cout << buffer.str() << std::endl;
// trying to read back node will print warnings about unmatched properties
osgDB::ReaderWriter::ReadResult rr = rw->readNode(buffer, options.get());
To fix this i made a change in OutputStream::writeArray().
I think the same issue applies to OutputStream::writeObject(). So i made the same change there.

Goals:
- to handle INCR_WRAP values nicely if not supported by OpenGL (old hardware)
- to support two side stenciling of OpenGL 2.0. Current implementation does not work on ATI as it uses Nvidia extension.
Ready for commit:
- Stencil and Stencil.cpp - please, review them
Ready with "hack":
- StencilTwoSided.cpp: please, see the line 113 in apply():
glEnable(GL_STENCIL_TEST_TWO_SIDE);
This line used to be in getModeUsage() as
usage.usesMode(GL_STENCIL_TEST_TWO_SIDE);
but it produces OpenGL errors on ATI as it is unknown value there (it is Nvidia extension).
Problems with my "glEnable" solution:
- it enables two side stenciling forever, and it will disturb any other single-side stenciling in the scene graph.

type is supported at present. The attached osgparticleshader.cpp will
show how it works. It can also be placed in the examples folder. But I
just wonder how this example co-exists with another two (osgparticle
and osgparticleeffect)?
Member variables in Particle, including _alive, _current_size and
_current_alpha, are now merged into one Vec3 variable. Then we can
make use of the set...Pointer() methods to treat them as vertex
attribtues in GLSL. User interfaces are not changed.
Additional methods of ParticleSystem are introduced, including
setDefaultAttributesUsingShaders(), setSortMode() and
setVisibilityDistance(). You can see how they work in
osgparticleshader.cpp.
Additional user-defined particle type is introduced. Set the particle
type to USER and attach a drawable to the template. Be careful because
of possible huge memory consumption. It is highly suggested to use
display lists here.
The ParticleSystemUpdater can accepts ParticleSystem objects as child
drawables now. I myself think it is a little simpler in structure,
than creating a new geode for each particle system. Of course, the
latter is still compatible, and can be used to transform entire
particles in the world.
New particle operators: bounce, sink, damping, orbit and explosion.
The bounce and sink opeartors both use a concept of domains, and can
simulate a very basic collision of particles and objects.
New composite placer. It contains a set of placers and emit particles
from them randomly. The added virtual method size() of each placer
will help determine the probability of generating.
New virtual method operateParticles() for the Operator class. It
actually calls operate() for each particle, but can be overrode to use
speedup techniques like SSE, or even shaders in the future.
Partly fix a floating error of 'delta time' in emitter, program and
updaters. Previously they keep the _t0 variable seperately and compute
different copies of dt by themseleves, which makes some operators,
especially the BounceOperator, work incorrectly (because the dt in
operators and updaters are slightly different). Now a getDeltaTime()
method is maintained in ParticleSystem, and will return the unique dt
value (passing by reference) for use. This makes thing better, but
still very few unexpected behavours at present...
All dotosg and serialzier wrappers for functionalities above are provided.
...
According to some simple tests, the new shader support is slightly
efficient than ordinary glBegin()/end(). That means, I haven't got a
big improvement at present. I think the bottlenack here seems to be
the cull traversal time. Because operators go through the particle
list again and again (for example, the fountain in the shader example
requires 4 operators working all the time).
A really ideal solution here is to implement the particle operators in
shaders, too, and copy the results back to particle attributes. The
concept of GPGPU is good for implementing this. But in my opinion, the
Camera class seems to be too heavy for realizing such functionality in
a particle system. Myabe a light-weight ComputeDrawable class is
enough for receiving data as textures and outputting the results to
the FBO render buffer. What do you think then?
The floating error of emitters
(http://lists.openscenegraph.org/pipermail/osg-users-openscenegraph.org/2009-May/028435.html)
is not solved this time. But what I think is worth testing is that we
could directly compute the node path from the emitter to the particle
system rather than multiplying the worldToLocal and LocalToWorld
matrices. I'll try this idea later.

osgWidget::Input:
[Functional changes]
- Previously, the field would be filled with spaces up to its max length, and typing would just replace the spaces. Also, there was a _textLength variable that kept track of the real length of text in the field, since the osgText::Text's length just reflected the length of spaces+text entered. This was not great, as you could still select the spaces with the mouse and it just feels hacky. So I changed it to only contain the text entered, no spaces, and _textLength was removed since it's now redundant (the osgText::Text's length is used instead).
- Fixed the selection size which (visually only) showed one more character selected than what was really selected.
- Fixed selection by dragging the mouse, it would sometimes not select the last character of the string.
- Cursor will now accurately reflect whether insert mode is activated (block cursor) or we're in normal mode (line cursor) like in most editors.
- Implemented Ctrl-X (cut)
- Added a new clear() method that allows the field to be emptied correctly. Useful for a command line interface, for example (hint, hint).
- Mouse and keyboard event handler methods would always return false, which meant selecting with the mouse would also rotate the trackball, and typing an 's' would turn on stats.
[Code cleanup]
- Renamed the (local) _selectionMin and _selectionMax variables which are used in a lot of places, as the underscores would lead to think they were members. Either I called them selection{Min|Max} or delete{Min|Max} where it made more sense.
- Fixed some indenting which was at 3 spaces (inconsistently), I'm sure I didn't catch all the lines where this was the case though.
- Put spaces between variable, operator and value where missing, especially in for()s. Again I only did this where I made changes, there are probably others left.
The result is that delete, backspace, Ctrl-X, Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V, and typing behaviour should now be consistent with text editor conventions, whether insert mode is enabled or not. I hope. :-)
Note, there's a nasty const_cast in there. Why isn't osgText::Font::getGlyph() declared const?
Also, as a note, the current implementation of cut, copy and paste (in addition to being Windows only, yuck) gets and puts the data into an std::string, thus if the osgText::String in the field contains unicode characters I think it won't work correctly. Perhaps someone could implement a proper clipboard class that would be cross-platform and support osgText::String (more precisely other languages like Chinese) correctly? Cut, copy and paste are not critical to what I'm doing so I won't invest the time to do that, but I just thought I'd mention it.

crash with some files.
Actually, itr was incremented into the loop and after the test with
nlist.end().
Then, the unreferencing of itr when nlist is equals to nlist.end() caused
the crash."
The current version crashes when encountering global materials, as also reported in the forum by the author of the plugin.
The problem in mesh.cpp (app. ln 247) is, that references to global materials that are given in curly brackets {} are not supported by the reader. However, curly brackets seem to be common, according to Bourke. Unfortunately, I found no specification. However, also the DirectX model viewer that comes with the DirectX-SDK (August 2009) expects curly brackets and refuses models without them.
My fix checks 2 more cases ("{ aMaterial }" -> 3 tokens and "{aMaterial}" -> 1 token), and extracts the material name for the lookup. I don't know if this is the most elegant solution, but the tokenizer seems to split based on white spaces.
You can reproduce the bug with the attached model (box.x), which loads fine in other tools, such as 3DSmax, DeepExploration or the DirectX model viewer. When I remove the curly brackets at the reference of "myGlobalMaterial", it loads in osgviewer, but is not standard conform.

submission email from Nathan: "I discovered a problem with POINT_ROT_EYE billboards in IntersectionVisitor: because we pass in just the model matrix to Billboard::computeBillboardMatrix, the billboard gets the wrong up vector. It really needs to take the view matrix into account to get the correct up vector.
This version of IntersectionVisitor.cpp is made against today's SVN. It corrects the problem by computing the billboard matrix using the complete modelview, and then multiplies by the inverse of the view matrix before pushing onto IntersectionVisitor's model stack. The only code I changed is in apply(Billboard&)."
notes from Robert, refactored the matrix multiplication code and the use of RefMatrix to make Nathan's changes more efficient.
The fbx plugin won't compile using gcc 4.3.2. I made the following
minor changes:
1. WriterNodeVisitor.cpp needed limits.h added to the headers.
2. gcc does not allow structures to be defined inside of functions, so
I moved the definition of PolygonRef out of the function to a global
scope (right above the function readMesh).
I also removed a bunch of embedded carriage returns

osgViewer behaves smarter, when the computer will reboot or shutdown. In
older versions the reboot/shutdown got cancelled by GraphicsWindowCocoa,
now it behaves more system conform.

This message is not generated by all the other code in TextureRectangle.cpp & Texture.cpp that also attempts to create pbo's. I've modified TextureRectangle.cpp to remove this message, so it is at least consistent with the other code."

Out application has the ability to switch to different types of terrains on the fly. This problem only exists in this type of situation.
The TXPArchive is held by the ReadWriterTXP class. When the TXPNode, which is the top level node, is released from memory, the archive associated to that TXPNode is also released. The issue is that the reference count on the TXPArchive never gets to zero.
The reason why the reference count never gets to zero is because the TXPParse, which is owned by the TXPArchive, stores a ref_ptr to the TXPArchive. You can then see why this becomes a problem. The TXPParser's ref_ptr cannot be unreferenced since the TXPArchive has not released the TXPParser.
Since the TXPParser is fully contained within the TXPArchive, I don't see the reason to have the TXPParser have a ref_ptr to the TXPArchive. I've made this change locally and have had no problems and our memory leak has been fixed.

In State::initializeExtensionProcs() the _glMaxTextureUnits is calculated based on osg::getGLVersionNumber().

to get QWidgetImage to a point where it can fill a need we have: to be
able to use Qt to make HUDs and to display widgets over / inside an OSG
scene.
---------------
Current results
---------------
I've attached what I have at this point. The modified QWidgetImage +
QGraphicsViewAdapter classes can be rendered fullscreen (i.e. the Qt
QGraphicsView's size follows the size of the OSG window) or on a quad in
the scene as before. It will let events go through to OSG if no widget
is under the mouse when they happen (useful when used as a HUD with
transparent parts - a click-focus scheme could be added later too). It
also supercedes Martin Scheffler's submission because it adds a
getter/setter for the QGraphicsViewAdapter's background color (and the
user can set their widget to be transparent using
widget->setAttribute(Qt::WA_TranslucentBackground) themselves).
The included osgQtBrowser example has been modified to serve as a test
bed for these changes. It has lots more command line arguments than
before, some of which can be removed eventually (once things are
tested). Note that it may be interesting to change its name or split it
into two examples. Though if things go well, the specific QWebViewImage
class can be removed completely and we can consolidate to using
QWidgetImage everywhere, and then a single example to demonstrate it
would make more sense, albeit not named osgQtBrowser... You can try this
path by using the --useWidgetImage --useBrowser command line arguments -
this results in an equivalent setup to QWebViewImage, but using
QWidgetImage, and doesn't work completely yet for some unknown reason,
see below.
----------------
Remaining issues
----------------
There are a few issues left to fix, and for these I request the
community's assistance. They are not blockers for me, and with my
limited Qt experience I don't feel like I'm getting any closer to fixing
them, so if someone else could pitch in and see what they can find, it
would be appreciated. It would be really nice to get them fixed, that
way we'd really have a first-class integration of Qt widgets in an OSG
scene. The issues are noted in the osgQtBrowser.cpp source file, but
here they are too:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
QWidgetImage still has some issues, some examples are:
1. Editing in the QTextEdit doesn't work. Also when started with
--useBrowser, editing in the search field on YouTube doesn't
work. But that same search field when using QWebViewImage
works... And editing in the text field in the pop-up getInteger
dialog works too. All these cases use QGraphicsViewAdapter
under the hood, so why do some work and others don't?
a) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage [--fullscreen] (optional)
b) Try to click in the QTextEdit and type, or to select text
and drag-and-drop it somewhere else in the QTextEdit. These
don't work.
c) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --sanityCheck
d) Try the operations in b), they all work.
e) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --useBrowser [--fullscreen]
f) Try to click in the search field and type, it doesn't work.
g) osgQtBrowser
h) Try the operation in f), it works.
2. Operations on floating windows (--numFloatingWindows 1 or more).
Moving by dragging the titlebar, clicking the close button,
resizing them, none of these work. I wonder if it's because the
OS manages those functions (they're functions of the window
decorations) so we need to do something special for that? But
in --sanityCheck mode they work.
a) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --numFloatingWindows 1
[--fullscreen]
b) Try to drag the floating window, click the close button, or
drag its sides to resize it. None of these work.
c) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --numFloatingWindows 1
--sanityCheck
d) Try the operations in b), all they work.
e) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage [--fullscreen]
f) Click the button so that the getInteger() dialog is
displayed, then try to move that dialog or close it with the
close button, these don't work.
g) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --sanityCheck
h) Try the operation in f), it works.
3. (Minor) The QGraphicsView's scrollbars don't appear when
using QWidgetImage or QWebViewImage. QGraphicsView is a
QAbstractScrollArea and it should display scrollbars as soon as
the scene is too large to fit the view.
a) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --fullscreen
b) Resize the OSG window so it's smaller than the QTextEdit.
Scrollbars should appear but don't.
c) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --sanityCheck
d) Try the operation in b), scrollbars appear. Even if you have
floating windows (by clicking the button or by adding
--numFloatingWindows 1) and move them outside the view,
scrollbars appear too. You can't test that case in OSG for
now because of problem 2 above, but that's pretty cool.
4. (Minor) In sanity check mode, the widget added to the
QGraphicsView is centered. With QGraphicsViewAdapter, it is not.
a) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage [--fullscreen]
b) The QTextEdit and button are not in the center of the image
generated by the QGraphicsViewAdapter.
c) osgQtBrowser --useWidgetImage --sanityCheck
d) The QTextEdit and button are in the center of the
QGraphicsView.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can see I've put specific repro steps there too, so it's clear
what I mean by a given problem. The --sanityCheck mode is useful to see
what should happen in a "normal" Qt app that demonstrates the same
situation, so hopefully we can get to a point where it behaves the same
with --sanityCheck and without."
I changed
_in->setStream( new std::stringstream(data) );
to
_dataDecompress = new std::stringstream(data);
_in->setStream( _dataDecompress );
Then when the destructor is of InputStream is called I delete the
dataDecompress stringstream.

I don't understand the changes to ReaderWriterFBX.cpp - (i) strings.h isn't a standard header, (ii) the ISO-conformant form is _strnicmp (with the underscore). Does the existing code not compile for you? If not we'll have to do some #ifdef nastiness."
A problem with transparency has also been fixed: objects were transparent wrt themselves but were opaque wrt to other objects.
Finally I added the support for "mixing factors" of diffuse, reflective and opacity textures/values.
From Michael Platings: added "LightmapTextures" plugin option that changes the way textures are interpreted so Alessandro's models appear correctly. Also refactored to put many functions in one class to avoid passing around too many arguments to functions.

bool observer_ptr<>::lock(ref_ptr<T>&) to avoid the temporary ref_ptr<>'s
being created and destroyed on the stack along with the associated ref/unref() operations
Changes:
- new mouse wheel zoom/movement/center functionality
- ability to fix vertical axis (important for CAD)
- possibility to specify values as absolute values or relative to model size
- kind of backward compatibility by flags passed to constructor
- and much more
- restructuring classes to use kind of hierarchy and standard way of event processing (handle methods). This way, there is much more code reusability and it is more easy to develop new kinds of manipulators.
Briefly, the new architecture keeps MatrixManipulator as base abstract class. StandardManipulator is the feature-rich standard manipulator with two main descendant classes: OrbitManipulator and FirstPersonManipulator. OrbitManipulator is base class for all trackball style manipulators, based on center, rotation and distance from center. FirstPersonManipulator is base for walk or fly style manipulators, using position and rotation for camera manipulation.

Changes by Robert: Replaced osg::Vec3 by osg::Vec3d, introduced DEFAULT_SETTINGS enum and usage. Added frame time member variables in prep for improving throw animation when vysync is off.
the OutputStream/InputStream implementations, which was just finished
last weekend with a few tests on Windows and Ubuntu. Hope it could
work and get more feedbacks soon.
I've added a new option "SchemaData" to the osg2 plugin. Developers
may test the new feature with the command line:
# osgconv cow.osg cow.osgb -O SchemaData
It will record all serializer properties used in the scene graph, at
the beginning of the generated file. And when osgviewer and user
applications is going to read the osgb file, the inbuilt data will be
automatically read and applied first, to keep backwards compatibility
partly. This will not affect osgb files generated with older versions.
