that has greater than unsigned short number of vertexes. An object
called vertexPtrToIndexMap contains vertexes and their indexes. This
std::map object can obviously hold a quantity that is greater than
unsigned short, however osg::DrawElementsUShort objects were being
created to reference these vertexes and their indexes.
osg::DrawElementsUShort can only hold indexes that are 16-bit
quantities.
...
proposed_patch_2\tessellator.cpp. This solution examines the size of
vertexPtrToIndexMap and selects 1 of 3 possible osg::DrawElements
objects: DrawElementsUByte, DrawElementsUShort, or DrawElementsUInt.
The main drawback of this particular solution is the code duplication.
However, the repair is straightforward."
