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.

This file adds the same string API wrapper to the State object for other older apps that
track Uniforms by string. The original comment about performance is preserved."
are big enough to handle the primitives used in the geometry.
Added usage of verifyArray into osgfilecache so that it reports any problems on reading files in paged database.
I see that we should expect some performance penalty for using this method. It won’t be painful in my current case because I have only a few animated characters. But I suspect some day I will have to fix osgCal to use int UniformIds natively for larger crowds."
hpux. I have skipped irix this time as irix is too dead to keep osg building
there.
As usual, solaris does not like member templates in stl containers.
Some headers missing and link problems due to missing libraries."
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."
* support for NPOT-textures on IOS
* support for FBOs (only renderToTexture for now) on IOS (should work
for other OpenGL ES 1/2 targets, too)
* FileUtils-support for IOS"
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.
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.
