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.
It turned out that nv.getDatabaseRequestHandler() returned NULL; using this pointer to call one of DatabaseRequestHandler's methods is of course illegal.
I patched it by adding: if (nv.getDatabaseRequestHandler())"
From Robert Osfield, reordered the addition of the nv.getDatabaseRequestHandler() check to allow the
default traverse() to be called when no database handling is attached to the visitor.
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
method may not take the node into consideration when computing its bound.
In this case of:
switch->insertChild(0, child, false);
switch->insertChild(1, child, true);
child will not be used in computeBound, but will be drawn.
Solution:
Changed compute bound to loop over children using an index instead of an
iterator. This behaviour matches that of the traverse method."

incorrectly checks for a valid OpenGL version. Instead of checking if
the current version is exactly 1.2, it will check if the version is
greater than 1.2."
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."
dlopen/dlsym instead of NS*Symbol* functions for 10.3 or later. The
latter is now deprecated.
I'm not completely sure how to test the changes. But I compiled these
new changes in and ran the osgvertexprogram and osgshaders examples
and they seemed to display the same results as before.
With respect to the use of dlopen and dlsym, I was uncertain if the
usage should look like Sun or FreeBSD (or something else). Apple's man
pages discourage the use of RTLD_DEFAULT so I avoided the FreeBSD
implementation and copied the Sun implementation. I'm not sure if this
is correct/ideal or not."
"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."
in incorrect texture assignment. Solution was to a compareTextureObjects() test to the Texture*::compare(..) method that
the osgUtil::Optimizer::StateSetVisitor uses to determine uniqueness.
