in the DatabasePager. The practical effects of these are to greatly reduce startup time
and the time to load an individual scenery tile in FlightGear.
- From my log message:
Minimize the number of StateSets and drawables that are compiled by checking
if they have already been compiled or will be elminated by the
SharedStateManager.
Move the sorting of the dataToCompile queue out of compileGLObjects
into the man pager run function.
Change the SharedStateManager to use maps instead of vectors."
- Get or set the target number of PagedLOD children to remove per frame.
- Get or set the minimum number of inactive PagedLOD to keep.
Corresponding environment variables have been added too.
The default values reproduce the previous DatabasePager behavior."
Created a new GraphicsThread subclass from OperationThread which allows the
GraphicsContext specific calls to be moved out of the base OperationThread class.
Updated the rest of the OSG to respect these changes.
Added and cleaned up DeleteHandler calls in osgViewer to help avoid crashes on exit.
Changed DatabasePager across to dynamically checcking osg::getCompileContext(..)
Updated wrappers.
default Registry Options object, but it would be useful to be able to
request loading with a different Options object. The attached files
allow you to do that (based off the OSG 1.2 source).
For example, I'm implementing a loader that requires context information
when it pages in subgraphs, which becomes significantly complicated when
multiple scenegraphs are requesting subgraph loads with different
contexts (the loader needs to know which context to use, and the
Registry Options needs to be carefully managed so the context settings
don't clobber each other, especially in multithreaded situations). Being
able to pass an Options instance along with the Node request resolves
this problem."
OSG_MINIMUM_COMPILE_TIME_PER_FRAME <float>
and
OSG_MAXIMUM_OBJECTS_TO_COMPILE_PER_FRAME <int>
environmental variable during the initialization of the DatabasePager
to allow apps to be tweaked for best database pager behavior.
much time is allocated to compiling and deleting OpenGL objects, also
added support into osgProducer::OsgSceneHandler.cpp for these new parameters.
The new cotrols are:
DatabasePager::s/getTargetFrameRate(..)
DatabasePager::s/getMinimumTimeAvailableForGLCompileAndDeletePerFrame()
DatabasePager::s/getMaximumNumOfObjectsToCompilePerFrame()
