Added support for automatic aliasing of vertex, normal, color etc. arrays to Vertex Attribute equivelants.
Added new osg::GLBeginEndAdapter class for runtime conversion from glBegin/glEnd codes to vertex arrray equivelants.
Added automatic shader source conversion from gl_ to osg_ builtins.
It adds new PrimitiveSet constants for the specific geometry shader primitive types :
- LINES_ADJACENCY
- LINE_STRIP_ADJACENCY
- TRIANGLES_ADJACENCY
- TRIANGLE_STRIP_ADJACENCY
It also adds some missing features to the glsl reader plug'in.

The Texture Pool can be enabled by setting the env var OSG_TEXTURE_POOL_SIZE=size_in_bytes.
Note, setting a size of 1 will result in the TexturePool allocating the minimum number of
textures it can without having to reuse TextureObjects from within the same frame.
Note from Robert Osfield, I've temporarily re-enabled the old focing of of color and depth attachment to avoid regressions on some OpenGL driver. We'll revist this once
we have a mechanism for controlling this override at runtime.

- osg::Texture sets GL_MAX_TEXTURE_LEVEL if image uses fewer mipmaps than
number from computeNumberOfMipmaps (and it works!)
- DDS fix to read only available mipmaps
- DDS fixes to read / save 3D textures with mipmaps ( packing == 1 is
required)
- Few cosmetic DDS modifications and comments to make code cleaner (I hope)
Added _isTextureMaxLevelSupported variable to texture extensions. It
could be removed if OSG requires OpenGL version 1.2 by default.
Added simple ComputeImageSizeInBytes function in DDSReaderWrites. In
my opinion it would be better if similar static method was defined for
Image. Then it could be used not only in DDS but other modules as well (I
noticed that Texture/Texture2D do similar computations).
Also attached is an example test.osg model with DDS without last mipmaps to
demonstrate the problem. When loaded into Viewer with current code and moved
far away, so that cube occupies 4 pixels, cube becomes red due to the issue
I described in earlier post. When you patch DDS reader writer with attched
code but no osg::Texture yet, cube becomes blank (at least on my
Windows/NVidia) When you also merge osg::Texture patch cube will look right
and mipmaps will be correct."
database options like recently added to PagedLOD.
Also there is a change to the traverse method:
The previous ProxyNode checks the VisitorType to be a CULL_VISITOR and the
presence of a request handler to submit a database request.
In contrast to that PagedLOD uses the request handler if it is there - even if
the visitor type is not a cull visitor.
The change removes the cull visitor test from the ProxyNode so that it behaves
like the PagedLOD.
I believe that the presence of a request handler in a visitor might be
sufficient to trigger the requests as this is done in the PagedLOD anyway.
Based on rev 10332."
Two implementations of NotifyHandler are currently available:
- StandardNotifyHandler, calls fputs(message, stderr) for severity <= WARN and fputs(message, stdout) for severity > WARN
- WinDebugNotifyHandler, windows users can redirect notifications to windows debug output, notifications can be viewed in output window of the debugger i.e. MSVC or DebugView (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896647.aspx) (see screenshot).
I have seen on osg-users that some people do std::cerr.rdbuf(otherStream.rdbuf()) to redirect notifications. This trick will no longer work since osg::notify() returns internal osg::NotifyStream not std::cout or std::cerr. You can use osg::notify().rdbuf(otherStream.rdbuf()) to do this instead.
Additionally I've made some minor fixes:
- Minor imrovements to osg::notify documentation
- NullStream could crash by deleting stream buffer other than default NullStreamBuffer in the destructor i.e. after osg::notify(osg::DEBUG_FP).rdbuf(otherStream.rdbuf())"
The changes are more or less just beautifications
(when looked at them from the C++ view), but make
wrapping OSG with SWIG easier.
I have tested the changes with both 2.8.1-rc4 and the
current head and would appreciate to incorporate the
changes in both branches.
Here is a description of the changes:
osg/BoundingSphere:
Use the following typedef (like used in BoundingBox)
typedef typename VT::value_type value_type;
instead of
typedef typename vec_type::value_type value_type;
SWIG reports errors on the latter construct.
Also makes it consistent with BoundingBox.
osg/Vec4ub:
Consistent use of "value_type" throughout the file.
osg/Vec?b:
Consistent use of "value_type" throughout the files.
Also changed
typedef char value_type;
to
typedef signed char value_type;
In the case of a simple "char", SWIG assumes a string.
Using "signed char" instead of "char" does not change
the behaviour of the class.
"
Introduced a new callback osgDB::FindFileCallback that overrides the default behavior of findDataFile/findLibraryFile.
Introduced support for assigning ReaderWriter::Options directory to PagedLOD.
Introduced new osgDB::FileLocationCallback for assistancing the DatabasePager to know when a file is hosted on a local or remote file system.
to make is easier to write code that can work on DrawElementUByte, UShort or UInt.
Changed the osgTerrain::GeometryTechnique so that it automatically chooses
the use of DrawElementUShort or DrawElementsUInt accordining to the size of the tile.
Because there already exists the option to convert slow path geometry to the fast path by computing an internal fast path alternative, I added a new optimizer option that automatically does this. To check the results I also made some changes to the statistics gathering and rendering.
Somewhat unrelated, but also part of the optimizer I disabled removal of CameraView nodes during RemoveRedundantNodes optimization.
As discussed on the ML, CameraViews were removed from the scenegraph. This solves that issue.
Summary:
-Geometry::areFastPathsUsed now also looks at internalOptimizedGeometry
-Added Optimize option to make all slow path geometry compute their internal fast path alternative
-Added fast geometry counter to the statistics
-Disabled removel of CameraViews in optimizer
"
circumstances under which this bug occur are rather specific, but the
basic problem occurs when one translation unit other than libosg.so
constructs an object that is a subclass of osg::Shape and another
translation unit other than libosg.so tries to perform a dynamic_cast or
other RTTI-based operation on that object. Under these circumstances,
the RTTI operation will fail. In my case, the translation units involved
were an application and osgdb_ive.so. The application constructed a
scene graph that included instantiations of subclasses of osg::Shape.
Depending on how the user ran the application, it would write the scene
graph to an IVE file using osgDB::writeNodeFile(). The dynamic_cast
operations in DataOutputStream::writeShape() would fail on the first
subclass of osg::Shape that was encountered. This is because there were
two different RTTI data objects for all osg::Shape subclasses being
compared: one in the application and one in osgdb_ive.so.
The fix for this is simple. We must ensure that at least one member
function of each of the subclasses of the polymorphic type osg::Shape is
compiled into libosg.so so that there is exactly one RTTI object for
that type in libosg.so. Then, all code linking against libosg.so will
use that single RTTI object. The following message from a list archive
sort of explains the issue and the solution:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/1688156
While the posting has to do with Boost.Python, the problem applies to
C++ libraries in general."
The fix was to convert the osg::State to use C pointers for the set of applied PerContexProgram objects, and use the osg::Oberver mechanism to avoid dangling pointers for being maintained in osg::State.

void addUpdateCallback(NodeCallback* nc);

void removeUpdateCallback(NodeCallback* nc);
... and the same for Event and Cull callbacks methods."
--------------------------------------------
Descripton:
The patch does provide a new class PixelDataBufferObject which is capable of allocating memory on the GPU side (PBO memory) of arbitrary size. The memory can then further be used to be enabled into read mode (GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER_ARB) or in write mode (GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER_ARB). Enabling the buffer into write mode will force the driver to write data from bounded textures into that buffer (i.e. glGetTexImage). Using buffer in read mode give you the possibility to read data from the buffer into a texture with e.g. glTexSubImage or other instuctions. Hence no data is copied over the CPU (host memory), all the operations are done in the GPU memory.
--------------------------------------------
Compatibility:
The new class require the unbindBuffer method from the base class BufferObject to be virtual, which shouldn't break any functionality of already existing classes. Except of this the new class is fully orthogonal to existing one, hence can be safely added into already existing osg system.
--------------------------------------------
Testing:
The new class was tested in the current svn version of osgPPU. I am using the new class to copy data from textures into the PBO and hence provide them to CUDA kernels. Also reading the results back from CUDA is implemented using the provided patch. The given patch gives a possibility of easy interoperability between CUDA and osg (osgPPU ;) )
--------------------------------------------
I think in general it is a better way to derive the PixelBufferObject class from PixelDataBufferObject, since the second one is a generalization of the first one. However this could break the current functionality, hence I haven't implemented it in such a way. However I would push that on a stack of wished osg 3.x features, since this will reflect the OpenGL PBO functionality through the classes better.
"
* When used PDS RenderStage::runCameraSetUp sets flag that FBO has already stencil,depth buffer attached. Prevents adding next depth buffer.
* Sets correct traits for p-buffer if used PDS and something goes wrong with FBO setup or p-buffer is used directly.
* Adds warning to camera if user add depth/stencil already attached through PDS.
* Sets blitMask when use blit to resolve buffer.
There is also new example with using multisampled FBO."
I have not reverted added Compiler options. I assume that one may want to have warnings enabled for the application but may not want to see them while OSG libraries and examples compile.
Modified files:
osg/Export - now explicitly includes osg/Config to make sure OSG_DISABLE_MSVC_WARNINGS is read
osg/Config.in - declares OSG_DISABLE_MSVC_WARNINGS flag to be added to autogenerated osg/Config
CMakeLists.txt - declares OSG_DISABLE_MSVC_WARNINGS as option with default ON setting

facilitate the subclassing of Image providing interactive behaviours so as
used in the vnc interactive VncImage class.
osgViewer::InteractiveImageHandler provides an event handler that convertes osgGA
mouse and keyboard events into the coordinate frame of an image based on ray intersection with geometry in
the associated subgraph.
Changed the ordering of events processing in Viewer and CompositeViewer to allow
scene graph event handlers to take precidence over viewer event handlers and camera manipulators
To facilitate this possibility I have added a template copy constructor and a template assignment operator. These work for safe conversions like those in my previous example, but fail as desired for non-safe conversions since the template instantiation fails during the raw pointer copy/assignment.
The lack of this facility has appreciably handicapped development of generic algorithms applied to the scene graph, and I believe that this alteration will be welcomed by most of the community. If there are issues with antiquated compilers not supporting template member functions then perhaps a small piece of conditional compilation is in order.
I have made the change using the latest release version (2.6) as the base. The full file is attached.
I have not tested building the osg wrappers and the script binding code. I have tested the legal and illegal conversions of both copying and assignment to ensure that behave as expected on MSVC7.1, MSVC8, MSVC9, GCC 4.3."
set.
The optimization is based on the observation that matrix matrix multiplication
with a dense matrix 4x4 is 4^3 Operations whereas multiplication with a
transform, or scale matrix is only 4^2 operations. Which is a gain of a
*FACTOR*4* for these special cases.
The change implements these special cases, provides a unit test for these
implementation and converts uses of the expensiver dense matrix matrix
routine with the specialized versions.
Depending on the transform nodes in the scenegraph this change gives a
noticable improovement.
For example the osgforest code using the MatrixTransform is about 20% slower
than the same codepath using the PositionAttitudeTransform instead of the
MatrixTransform with this patch applied.
If I remember right, the sse type optimizations did *not* provide a factor 4
improovement. Also these changes are totally independent of any cpu or
instruction set architecture. So I would prefer to have this current kind of
change instead of some hand coded and cpu dependent assembly stuff. If we
need that hand tuned stuff, these can go on top of this changes which must
provide than hand optimized additional variants for the specialized versions
to give a even better result in the end.
An other change included here is a change to rotation matrix from quaterion
code. There is a sqrt call which couold be optimized away. Since we divide in
effect by sqrt(length)*sqrt(length) which is just length ...

they are written to disk, either inline or as an external file. Added support for
this in the .ive plugin. Default of WriteHint is NO_PREFERNCE, in which case it's
up to the reader/writer to decide.
"I made several modifications:
* The cause of my errors was that my OSG source directory path contains spaces. To fix this issue I wrapped all paths with quotes, as stated in doxygen documentation.
* I also received some warning messages about deprecated doxygen settings, which I fixed by updating the doxygen file, i.e. running \u2018doxygen \u2013u doxygen.cmake\u2018. By running this command deprecated doxygen options are removed, some option comments have changed and quite some options have been added (I kept their default settings unless mentioned).
* I was surprised to find that the doxygen OUTPUT_DIRECTORY was set to \u201c${OpenSceneGraph_SOURCE_DIR}/doc\u201d, which does not seem appropriate for out of source builds; I changed this to \u201c${OpenSceneGraph_BINARY_DIR}/doc\u201d. (On the other hand, maybe a cmake selectable option should be given to the user?)
* Fixed two warnings I received about unexpected end-of-list-markers in \u2018osg\AnimationPath and \u2018osgUtil\CullVisitor due to excess trailing points in comments.
* Fixed a warning in osgWidget\StyleInterface due to an #include directive (strangely) placed inside a namespace.
* Fixed a warning in osg\Camera due to the META_Object macro that confused doxygen. Adding a semi-colon fixed this.
* Removed auto_Mainpage from the INCLUDE option, because I am positive that this file does not belong there; It never generated useful documentation anyway.
* I added the OSG version number environment variable to the PROJECT_NUMBER option so that the version number is now shown on the main page of generated documentation (e.g. index.html).
* Changed option FULL_PATH_NAMES to YES, but made sure STRIP_FROM_PATH stripped the absolute path until the include dir. This fixed an issue that created mangled names for identical filenames in different directories. E.g. osg/Export and osgDB/Export are now correctly named.
* Changed option SHOW_DIRECTORIES to yes, which is a case of preference I guess.

New attribute DatabasePager::_expiryFrames sets number of frames a PagedLOD child is kept in memory. The attribute is set with DatabasePager::setExpiryFrames method or OSG_EXPIRY_FRAMES environmental variable.
New attribute PagedLOD::PerRangeData::_
frameNumber contains frame number of last cull traversal.
Children of PagedLOD are expired when time _AND_ number of frames since last cull traversal exceed OSG_EXPIRY_DELAY _AND_ OSG_EXPIRY_FRAMES respectively. By default OSG_EXPIRY_FRAMES = 1 which means that nodes from last cull/rendering
traversal will not be expired even if last cull time exceeds OSG_EXPIRY_DELAY. Setting OSG_EXPIRY_FRAMES = 0 revokes previous behaviour of PagedLOD.
Setting OSG_EXPIRY_FRAMES > 0 fixes problems of children reloading in lazy rendering applications. Required behaviour is achieved by manipulating OSG_EXPIRY_DELAY and OSG_EXPIRY_FRAMES together.
Two interface changes are made:
DatabasePager::updateSceneGraph(double currentFrameTime) is replaced by DatabasePager::updateSceneGraph(const osg::FrameStamp &frameStamp). The previous method is in #if 0 clause in the header file. Robert, decide if You want to include it.

implementation of the atomic increment and decrement into a implementation

This way inlining and compiler optimization can no longer happen for these
implementations, but it fixes compilation on win32 msvc targets. I expect
that this is still faster than with with mutexes.
Also the i386 gcc target gets atomic operations with this patch. By using an

available."
"I have taken the liberty of updating a few files so that there is no longer any derivation from std::vector. I have done this by adding a new file osg/MixinVector and by updating only two others: osg/PrimitiveSet and osg/Array. You will notice that this actually removes what is acknowledged as a \u2018hack\u2019 in osg/PrimitiveSet.
With the original code I did manage to find memory leaks with some compiler options on VC 8 and 9, as well as Intel compiler. I determined the leak existence by instrumenting the destructor code, and by use of a garbage collector as a leak detector (in a similar manner to the Firefox project). Hence in contrast to what I said originally, it is exhibiting symptoms on at least some platforms.
Since I am trying to be a good OSG citizen I got out my editor and started hacking! I have built and tested on Linux (Ubuntu) with GCC 4.x and Windows VC 8 SP1. It appears that nothing is broken, and that I\u2019m using less memory J"

GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS is very slow (over half a second for a 720*576
texture). However, glGenerateMipmapEXT() performs well (16ms for the
same texture), so I have modified the attached files to use
Texture::generateMipmap() if glGenerateMipmapEXT is supported, instead
of enabling & disabling GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS."
Notes, from Robert Osfield, I've tested the out of the previous path using
GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS and non power of two textures on NVidia 7800GT and
Nvidia linux drivers with the image size 720x576 and only get compile times
of 56ms, so the above half second speed looks to be a driver bug. With
Muchael's changes the cost goes done to less than 5ms, so it's certainly
an effective change, even given that Michael's poor expereiences with
GL_GENERATE_MIP_SGIS do look to be a driver bug.
- Solves issues of loading image data into the texture memory
- Print a warning if images are of different dimensions or have different internal formats (GL specification requires images to be the same)

multi-threaded paging, where the Pager manages threads of reading local
and http files via seperate threads. This makes it possible to smoothly
browse large databases where parts of the data are locally cached while
others are on a remote server. Previously with this type of dataset
the pager would stall all paging while http requests were being served,
even when parts of the models are still loadable virtue of being in the
local cache.
Also as part of the refactoring the DatabaseRequest are now stored in the
ProxyNode/PagedLOD nodes to facilitate quite updating in the cull traversal,
with the new code avoiding mutex locks and searches. Previous on big
databases the overhead involved in make database requests could accumulate
to a point where it'd cause the cull traversal to break frame. The overhead
now is negligable.
Finally OSG_FILE_CACHE support has been moved from the curl plugin into
the DatabasePager. Eventually this functionality will be moved out into
osgDB for more general usage.

From Robert Osfield, refactored the FrameBufferObejcts::_drawBuffers set up so that its done

Added Matrix::value_type, Plane::value_type, BoundingSphere::value_type and BoundingBox::value_type command line
options that report where the types of floats or doubles.
and a new scheme for computing the scaling when using autoscale that introduces smooth
transitions to the scaling of the subgraph so that it looks more natural.
Attached is a fixed version of OverlayNode.cpp. I fixed CustomPolytope::cut( osg::Plane ) method. Bug was apparent in such scenario:
Let P1 be some random frustum polytope
Let P2 be the polytope that was created from P1 bounding box (P2 contains P1 entirely)
Then ignoring precision errors: P1.cut( P2 ) == P2.cut( P1 ) == P1. But this condition was not always met. Cut failed when some of the polytope reference points happened to lie exactly on some intersecting planes in both P1 & P2 (plane distance was = 0).
I only use CustomPolytope for my shadowing stuff so I did not test how this affects rest of OverlayNode.cpp.

Also attached is a minor precision improvement for osg::Plane intersect method (double version).
----3----
I have also one observation regarding osg::Plane - There are two intersect vertices methods (float and double flavour):
inline int intersect(const std::vector<Vec3>& vertices) const
inline int intersect(const std::vector<Vec3d>& vertices) const
I guess osg::Plane won't compile when someone changes default vec3 typedef to vec3d. Shouldn't the first method be changed to use vec3f explicitly ? Ie:
inline int intersect(const std::vector<Vec3f>& vertices) const"

"A new texture class Texture2DArray derived from
Texture extends the osg to support the new
EXT_texture_array extensions. Texture arrays provides
a feature for people interesting in GPGPU programming.
Faetures and changes:
- Full support for layered 2D textures.
- New uniform types were added (sampler2DArray)
- FrameBufferObject implementation were changed to
support attaching of 2D array textures to the
framebuffer
- StateSet was slightly changed to support texture
arrays. NOTE: array textures can not be used in fixed
function pipeline. Thus using the layered texture as a
statemode for a Drawable produce invalid enumerant
OpenGL errors.
- Image class was extended to support handling of
array textures
Tests:
I have used this class as a new feature of my
application. It works for me without problems (Note:
Texture arrays were introduced only for shading
languages and not for fixed function pipelines!!!).
RTT with Texture2DArray works, as I have tested them

"Since we desperately needed a means for picking Lines
and Points I implemented (hopefully!) proper geometrical tests
for the PolytopeIntersector.
First of all I implemented a new "GenericPrimiteFunctor"
which is basically an extended copy TriangleFunctor which also
handles Points, Lines and Quads through suitable overloads of
operator(). I would have liked to call it "PrimitiveFunctor"
but that name was already used...
I used a template method to remove redundancy in the
drawElements method overloads. If you know of platforms where
this will not work I can change it to the style used
in TriangleFunctor.
In PolytopeIntersector.cpp I implemented a
"PolytopePrimitiveIntersector" which provides the needed
overloads for Points, Lines, Triangles and Quads to
the GenericPrimitiveFunctor. This is then used in the
intersect method of PolytopeIntersector.
Implementation summary:
- Points: Check distance to all planes
- Lines: Check distance of both ends against each plane.
If both are outside -> line is out
If both are in -> continue checking
One is in, one is out -> compute intersection point (candidate)
Then check all candidates against all other polytope
planes. The remaining candidates are the proper
intersection points of the line with the polytope.
- Triangles: Perform Line-Checks for all edges of the
triangle as above. If there is an proper intersection
-> done.
In the case where there are more than 2 polytope
plane to check against we have to check for the case
where the triangle encloses the polytope.
In that case the intersection lines of the polytope
planes are computed and checked against the triangle.
- Quads: handled as two triangles.
This is implementation is certainly not the fastest.
There are certainly ways and strategies to improve it.
I also enabled the code for PolytopeIntersector
in osgkeyboardmouse and added keybindings to
switch the type of intersector ('p') and the picking
coordinate system ('c') on the fly. Since the
PolytopeIntersector does not have a canonical
ordering for its intersections (as opposed to
the LineSegementIntersector) I chaged the
implementation to toggle all hit geometries.
I tested the functionality with osgkeyboardmouse
and several models and it seems to work for
polygonal models. Special nodes such as billboards
do not work.
The next thing on my todo-list is to implement
a an improved Intersection-Structure for the
PolytopeIntersector. We need to know
which primitives where hit (and where).

setActiveTextureUnit methods of osg::State so they return false if the
texture unit is outside the range of allowable units for the driver.
Currently, the functions would return true even if the units are

the actual driver state, which can cause some bugs in certain cases.
The change I made would verify that the unit passed to
setClientActiveTextureUnit is below GL_MAX_TEXTURE_COORDS, and the
unit passed to setActiveTextureUnit is below
max(GL_MAX_TEXTURE_COORDS,GL_MAX_COMBINED_TEXTURE_IMAGE_UNITS). I

Note from Robert Osfield, Also includes some guards against crashes that was occuring in this new
code when handling empty Sequences.
return the length of the stream.
Implemented the virtual methods in QuicktimeImageStream, (getLength,
getReferenceTime, setTimeMultiplier), to return valid value for each.
"
it to be assigned as a vertex attribute array to an osg::Geometry.
Removed the osgTerrain::ArrayLayer as its no longer required thanks to the above change
which makes the osgTerrain::HeightFieldLayer more flexible.
Updated wrappers
multithreaded-opengl-engine on os x or not. I set its default to false,
perhaps other os x users can test this setting with their data/apps, to
see if we can enable it by default.
I changed also the borderless-window-type, so expos?works correctly."
retain objects for several frames before deleting them. Also added RenderStageCache
into CullVistor.cpp that is used for handling RTT osg::Camera's that are being
used in double buffered SceneView usage.
related support into osgViewer::Viewer and osgViewer::StatsHandler.
Added lazy updating of text in StatsHandler HUD to minimize the impact of
slow text updating on observed frame rates.
Added setting of osg_SimulationTime and osg_DeltaSimulationTime to the uniforms set by SceneView
Added frame(double simulationTime) and advance(double simulationTime) parameters to
osgViewer::SimpleViewer, Vewer and CompositeViewer.
Updated various examples and Nodes to use SimulationTime where appropriate.
Added s/getStats() to osg::View and osg::Camera.
Added population of View::getStats() with frame stats in osgViewer/Viewer.
Added Basic StatsHandler to osgviewer example.
as osg::GraphicsOperation. Unpdated parts of OSG depending upon these.
Added a virtaul bool valid() method to osg::GraphicsContext to allow apps to
test whether a valid graphis context has been created or not.
added frame stamp updating and update traversal to osgViewer::Scene/Viewer.
Updated osgcamera example to use new Viewer API calls instead of using local
rendering calls.
Performance tests on big models did not indicate any performance penalty in using doubles over floats,
so the move to doubles should mainly impact precision improvements for whole earth databases.
Also made improvements to osgUtil::PlaneIntersector and osgSim::ElevationSlice classes
handle scenes with multiple views with elements that need coordinating on a per view basis.
Added beginings of new osgText::FadeText class (not functionality yet).
"I've made some changes to osg which I think make it easier to control
the render order of CameraNode's. Instead of using the built-in orders
(PRE_RENDER, POST_RENDER, NESTED_RENDER), you can specify an integer
order. Values less than zero are pre rendered in order. Values greater
than zero are post rendered in order. And a value of 0 is equivalent
to NESTED_RENDER.
The changes should be fully backward compatible. Also, I changed the
RenderStageList type from a vector to a list because I needed to be
able to insert values anywhere in the list.
The reason I made these changes was because I wanted to be able to set
the render order of a CameraNode at runtime without having to reorder
it in the scenegraph."
and later in the final submission message (relating to what has been finally been merged) :
"I've rethought my implementation and came up with something a little
better. The setRenderOrder will continue to take an enum, but will
have an optional orderNum parameter which can be both positive and
negative. I think this method is more intuitive and flexible."
"I was experiencing hard crashes of my application when using PBO's on
machines that don't support PBO's. I think osg incorrectly checks if
PBO's are supported.
I added a new method to the BufferObject::Extensions class which
returns if the "GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object" string is supported. This
fixes the problem on my end. Machines without PBO support will
continue to work and machines with PBO support will still be able to
use it."
think it can be simplified quite a bit. The old code includes
<cmath> for pre-10.2 and anything using something other than g++ 4
and then uses std::isnan. For the most current version, it leaves
out cmath and uses isnan(). std::isnan and cmath work for the
current version, so I just made it include cmath if __APPLE__ is
defined and removed the ifdef between versions of OS X for isnan
related things.
This way the code is all the same, and it's not fragile to someone
including <cmath> prior to including osg/Math."
in incorrect texture assignment. Solution was to a compareTextureObjects() test to the Texture*::compare(..) method that
the osgUtil::Optimizer::StateSetVisitor uses to determine uniqueness.
setFactorAndUnitMultipliersUsingBestGuessForDriver() static methods to
osg::PolygonOffset to help implement workarounds for lack of portablity of
settings between different hardware.
make it consistent with the constructor and prevent the
BlendFuncSeparate path being called. This patch fixed the artifact
with the osgpointsprite demo on ATI cards reported by Mike Weiblen."
"Attached is some fixes for Image::readImageFromCurrentTexture. It was
failing when used with a new Image object (some of the fields were
not set before they were used, and some were set to the wrong values).
A new optional parameter was added to give the desired data type, which
defaults to GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, so programs should only need a recompile
to work properly."
when the binding mode changes, thereby avoiding uncessary calls to dirtyDisplayList.
Note, from Robert Osfield, moved bodies of set*Binding() into Geometry.cpp to avoid
clutter in the header.
that removeChild(Node*), removeChild(uint) and equivilant Geode methods are
now inline methods, not designed to be overriden, and seperated out the
multiple remove method to be called removeChildren(uint, uint) which is
now the only virtual method. There removeChildren is now the method to
override in subclasses.
This reorganisation requires some call code to be rename removeChild usage
to removeChildren.
osg::DisplaySettings class. OsgCameraGroup will now read the setting
from the DisplaySettings instead of hardcoding the value. I added the
following commandline option to be able to set the multisample value:
--samples <num>
One thing to note, OsgCameraGroup would previously check if the
computer is an SGI and set multisample to 4. I retained this check in
DisplaySettings to be backwards compatible."
