This was already possible for .frag and .vert so there's no reason why it shouldn't be possible for .geom.
I also changed the alignment of some extension aliases so the file looks a bit better now, but it's up to you if you want to merge that or not.

currently only Debug appends "d" so the Release and MinSizeWithDebInfo
(and MinSizeRel) all produce the same filenames. This set of changes
lets each build type have a cmake defined string appended, defaulting
to Release none, Debug d, RelWithDebInfo rd, MinSizeRel s. But a user
still can have Release, RelWithDebInfo, and MinSizeRel to produce the
same filenames. It does so by setting the preprocessor define
OSG_LIBRARY_POSTFIX in src/osgDB/CMakeLists.txt to one of the
previously defined cmake variables CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX
CMAKE_RELEASE_POSTFIX CMAKE_RELWITHDEBINFO_POSTFIX
CMAKE_MINSIZEREL_POSTFIX. This method cuts down on the #ifdef _DEBUG
#else preprocessor directives in Registry.cpp as the extension is
always passed in OSG_LIBRARY_POSTFIX. That and __MINGW32__ didn't
have the _DEBUG check which looks like a bug."
to the osgDB::Registry. Added a osgDB::Registry::getObjectWrapperManager() for access of this object wrapper manager. This
change centralises the singleton management in osgDB.
Merged the osgDB::GlobalLookUpTable functionality into ObjectWrapperManger to keep down the number of singletons in use.
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
Most notable the __hpux define stuff. The __hpux__ variant seems to be not
defined which resulted in a compile error at this time. Consequently I have
replaced all occurances of __hpux__ with __hpux. And huge surprise: now osg
plugins are found and loaded correctly ...
The next notable one is the MSVC_IDE fix which makes the nmake Makefiles cmake
generator target behave like the ide one. Showed up because I started to do
scripted builds with nmake instead of devenv...
The rest is the usual bunch of stuff that just happens during normal
coding ..."
Introduced a new FindFileCallback to Registry to compliement the existing ReadFileCallback and WriteFileCallback.
Added support for assign Find, Read and WriteFileCallbacks to osdDB::Options to enable plugins/applications to override the callbacks just for that
read/write call and any nested file operations
the conditional directives for setting the prepend-string in
createLibraryNameForExtension were not in effect, because of the mixture
of different #ifdef styles.
I removed the conditional part for __APPLE__ completely to be more
standard-conform with other platforms (plugins should be located in
osgPlugins-X.X.X/). Because of the wrong syntax of the conditional
compile the old code was not used anyway -- so no functional change.

Background: when you access a file over HTTP, you cannot rely on a file extension being present; instead the file's mime-type is conveyed in the HTTP Content-Type response header. This facility adds a mime-type-to-extension map to the registry to handle this.
There are two new osgDB::Registry functions which are pretty self-explanatory:
void addMimeTypeExtensionMapping( mime-type, extension )
ReaderWriter* getReaderWriterForMimeType( mime-type )
I also added the file osgDB/MimeTypes.cpp which houses a hard-coded list of built-in types. I took the list from here (http://www.webmaster-toolkit.com/mime-types.shtml) and then pared it down to include mostly image and video types, editing them to map to existing plugins where possible.
In addition, I updated the CURL plugin to a) install a set of built-in mime-type mappings, and b) use them to look up an extension in the event that the target filename does not have an extension.
Here is a test case. This URL pulls down a JPEG (without a file extension):
osgviewer --image "http://us.maps3.yimg.com/aerial.maps.yimg.com/ximg?v=1.8&s=256&t=a&r=1&x=0&y=0&z=2"

"Attached you'll find a proposal for using different
protocols. The idea behind the new code is:
1.) plugins/apps register protocols which they can handle. This is done
via osgDB::Registry::registerProtocol(aProtocolName). Plugins register
supported protocols as usual via ReaderWriter::supportsProtocol(..), the
Registry is updated accordingly.
2.) osgDB::containsServerAddress checks first for an appearance of "://"
in the filename and then checks the protocol against the set of
registered protocols via Registry::isProtocolRegistered(aProtocollName)
3.) the other getServer*-functions changed as well, there's even a
getServerProtocol-function
With these changes filenames/Urls get routed to loaded plugins even with
different protocols than 'http'."
osgText::Text and osgText::Text3D use the same font file.
The first really load the file and obtain an osgText::Font object,
the second use the cache created during the first load of the
font file, and so obtain an osgText::Font object instead of
osgText::Font3D object. To obtain an osgText::Font3D object,
osgText::Text3D call osgDB::readObjectFile(...) with an option
to specify the plugin we want an osgText::Font3D instead of
osgText::Font.
Generalised Problem:
In osgDB::Registry, loaded file cache is referenced by the name
of this file, so if I load a file with some options, and the cache
already contain object for this filename, I obtain an object
potentially not loaded with my options.
Behaviours:
Cache management is delegate to osgDB::Registry, but cache
coherence (load a file with option then reuse it, deactivate the
cache when load a specific file or don't cached the loaded file)
is user's responsibility.
Text3D solution:
Postfix the font file name by .text3d or something similar and then have the freetype plugin return
osgText::Font3D when it detects this.
This operation is done by osgText::readFont3DFile() which unsure the filename have .text3d as extension.
This is totaly transparent for user, and backward compatible.
BTW, I fix the bug about the Normal of 3D text. Currently, the front and wall face have
the same normal (0,0,1) in the Text3D object coordinate. Now the wall face have its own
normal array computed by the plugin.
BTW 2, I implement
- void Text3D::accept(osg::Drawable::ConstAttributeFunctor& af) const
- void Text3D::accept(osg::PrimitiveFunctor& pf) const
so now statistics are well reported.

The code works fine as is if the format plugin is not already loaded in memory.
If a plugin is already in memory, say the PNG plugin for example, then a call to readImageFile("http://server.com/image.png") will return FILE_NOT_FOUND because osgDB::findDataFile will not be able to locate the file. So the Registry::read method is returning before the CURL plugin is given a chance to download the file.
I've made a few changes to the Registry to not return FILE_NOT_FOUND if the filename contains a URL that fix the issue."
I've made a small change to Registry.cpp that puts the CURL logic AFTER the URL has been passed to the plugin rather than assuming all URL's need to be downloaded by the CURL plugin. This way, plugins can have first crack at the URL's, and if they don't handle it the previous CURL behavior kicks in."

mode. Nevertheless, the code doesn't acknowledge that, so I had problems with
debug versions of the library not being able to open their plugins whereas
the release versions worked fine.
I have made the same changes in Registry.cpp that are available for the rest
of platforms appending that "d" to their plugins. I have also updated the
CMakeLists.txt file to get "_DEBUG" defined at compilation time. I have
copied the already existent conditional block because of cmake's bizarre
operator precedence. Since Cygwin defines both CYGWIN and WIN32, the
following would suffice:
IF(CYGWIN OR UNIX AND NOT WIN32 AND NOT APPLE)
Sadly, it actually doesn't work, so I wrote a new conditional block just for
Cygwin. I could join the two blocks when the parentheses support is added in
newer versions of cmake."
first post:
"I had the problem that debug and release version of the plugins had the same name under linux. These minors modification to Registry and the CMake support files enable to have both Release and Debug version of the plugins to coexist and be found by there respective runtimes."
follow up post:
"I've gone ahead and added a preprocessor directive with the editable CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX. I modified Registry.cpp to take this new preprocessor directive called OSG_DEBUG_POSTFIX while looking for libraries in Debug mode for the windows (msvc) and the linux platforms.
MinGW, cygwin and Apple are still left out this proposal."
Notes from Robert Osfield, completed the work in change d entries to use OSG_DEBUG_POSTFIX
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.
