"generic" property mechanism for osg::Object.
The main problem I have found is that InputStream and OutputStream
only takes the stream when you call start method, and in that case it
attaches to the stream buffer some stuff, useful for files but not for
runtime/gui usage. I have added a simple setInputIterator and
setOutputIterator to the classes so now you can easily serialize
values without version and other stuff.
Writing matrix:
osgDB::OutputStream os(0);
std::stringstream sstream;
os.setOutputIterator(new AsciiOutputIterator(&sstream));
os << matrix;
std::string value = sstream.str();
Reading matrix:
osgDB::InputStream is(0);
std::stringstream sstream(value);
is.setInputIterator(new AsciiInputIterator(&sstream));
osg::Matrixf mat2;
is >> mat2;
From Robert Osfield, added doxygen comments to clarify the role of the methods.
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.
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.

change was to use doubles for reading and writing matrices regardless of type of Matrix
being serialized.
Change does break backwards compatibility though, so code
path supporting original format has been left in for the
time being. However, this code is not reliable enough and
is over complicated compared to the simplified handling. Once
the new code has been bedded down for a while I'll remove this code block.
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.

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.

using osgDB::XmlParser. The extension for XML-formatted scenes is
.osgx, corresponding to .osgb for binary and .osgt for ascii. It could
either be rendered in osgviewer or edited by common web browsers and
xml editors because of a range of changes to fit the XML syntax. For
example, the recorded class names are slight modified, from
'osg::Geode' to 'osg--Geode'.
To quickly get an XML file:
# ./osgconv cow.osg cow.osgx
The StreamOperator header, InputStreram and OutputStream classes are
modified to be more portable for triple ascii/binary/XML formats. I
also fixed a bug in readImage()/writeImage() to share image objects if
needed.
The ReaderWriterOSG2 class now supports all three formats and
reading/writing scene objects (not nodes or images), thanks to
Torben's advice before.

of OSG. I modified the osgDB::InputStream and OutputStream and the
PagedLOD wrapper as well. Now all seems to work fine with paged
scenes. I've tested with the puget terrain data and the osgdem
application from VPB:
# osgdem --xx 10 --yy 10 -t ps_texture_4k.tif --xx 10 --yy 10 -d
ps_height_4k.tif -l 8 -v 0.1 -o puget.osgb
As the ive plugin does, The PagedLOD wrapper now automatically add the
latest file path to PagedLODs' databasePath member, to help them find
correct child positions. I also changed the image storage strategy of
the OutputStream class, to store them inline by default. The osgt
extension should also work, in case the image files are also written
to the disk.
"
1. Rewrite the reading/writing exception handlers to work like the ive
plugin exceptions.
2. Write a header writing/checking function in ReaderWriterOSG2.cpp,
which may help decide if the stream is ascii or binary. The
readInputIterator() function will return null pointer if the input
file is nither osgb nor osgt format, which indicates that the old .osg
format could be used here, in case we've merged the two plugins
together.
3. Add a new ForceReadingImage option in the InputStream, which will
allocate an empty image object with the filename if specifed external
image file is missed. It may be useful for format converting in some
cases.
4. Add new osgParticle wrappers, as well as some modification to the
osgParticle headers, for instance, change isEnabled() to getEnabled().
5. Some fixes to the osg serialization wrappers."
From Robert Osfield, refactor of Wang Rui's original osg2 into 3 parts - parts placed into osgDB, the ReaderWriter placed into src/osg/Plugin/osg and wrappers into src/osgWrappers/serializers/osg
