The bsp & mdl plugins have calls to atof() without including the
associated <stdlib.h> header. This breaks the build on my Solaris setup.
Rather than adding the missing <stdlib.h> include, I have changed the
atof() calls to osg::asciiToDouble(). This is the same as was done
throughout the other plugins recently, for locale independance.

Barrier operations. The error is with atomic operations in the

Win32ConditionPrivateData::wait does two operations to decrement
waiters_ then read, when InterlockedDecrement decrements and returns
the value in one operation. The two operations allows another thread
to also decrement with both getting 0 for an answer.
Win32ConditionPrivateData::broadcast is using waiters_ directly
instead of using the w value read earlier, if it was safe to use
waiters_ directly there would be no need for InterlockedGet or w.

If I set the text AFTER setting the alignment, everything works fine. But if I set the text BEFORE setting the alignment then the text is displayed incorrectly.

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."
The fix is to remove the call to bs.expandBy(v) and compute the radius directly. I believe this call was intended to be bs.expandRadiusBy(v), but it is superfluous when the radius is computed directly.

_beginthreadex() fails but OpenThreads still waits on the startup
Block before returning to the caller of OpenThreads::Thread::start().
This causes a deadlock. The return value of _beginthreadex() is
actually checked, but after the call to OpenThreads::Block::block() so
it is basically useless.
Attached is a fix to move the check for the return value of
_beginthreadex() before the call to block(), so that start() can
return to the caller with a non-zero error code. This solves the

I removed the conditional part for __APPLE__ completely to be more

compile the old code was not used anyway -- so no functional change.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH so the XUL libs would be found) I noticed that although
the gecko plugin was found it could not be loaded. But this did not
trigger any visible warning/error message (at least not without INFO
notify level). Would you mind if we change the notify level for a
dlerror() to WARNING? This will also make it more explicit for the case
when a plugin isn't actually found, which seems to come up a lot for
novice users (e.g. no freetype on win32, so no freetype plugin, etc).
Also, the current error message is misleading ("Warning: Could not FIND

finding it but not being able to load it.

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:

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.

o The value returned by QWidget::winId() is not usable as input for
WindowData under OS X the way it is for both Windows and Unix. Julian's fix
for this uses the Carbon API. Since the fix for X11 in unknown, it is now

example to work at all when running under OS X.
o The CompositeViewer version would hang on exit with the original timer start
argument. Changing the argument value to match the non-composite version

o Julian's patch altered the setGeometry position to 30/30 in order to see any
window decorations. I did not have this problem, but left his changes intact.
o The non-composite viewer needed it's camera initialization defered until
after the ViewerQOSG's Qt base class had been initialized. Otherwise, the view
did not cover the entire window.

A Collada camera will be added to the scenegraph as osg::CameraView. This allows the user to create a set of predefined camera viewpoints. I also added a new MatrixManipulator to osgGA called CameraViewSwitchManipulator and added usage of this to the osgviewer example. This manipulator allows switching between the predefined camera viewpoints. The current design limition I ran into is that a MatrixManipulator only manipulates the ViewMatrix, but for this particular manipulator I also want to update the projectionMatrix of the camera when switching to a new viewpoint. This is not implemented because I don't know what would be the best way to design it. Any ideas?
Furthermore Collada also supports orthographic camera's, where an osg::CameraView only supports a perspective camera. Would it be useful to create a CameraView with customizable optics for this?"

osgDB/FileUtils.cpp:
Needed this extra code to allow a true case-insensitive search. This is because the HL2 map and model files are often sloppy with case. For example, the file might look for materials/models/alyx/alyx_sheet.vtf, but the file is actually in materials/Models/Alyx/alyx_sheet.vtf. In case-insensitive mode, the new code recursively disassembles the path and checks each path element without regard to case. In case-sensitive mode, the code behaves exactly as it used to. The new code is also mostly skipped on Windows because of the case-insensitive file system. Previously, I did all of this with custom search code in the .bsp plugin, but this allows the user to tailor the search using OSGFILEPATH. There are some instructions in the plugins' README files about this.
osgPlugins/mdl:
This is a new plug-in for Half-Life 2 models (as opposed to maps). This allows you to load Source models individually, as well as allowing the .bsp plugin to load models (props) that are embedded into maps. Mdl files can contain simple object (crates, barrels, bottles), as well as fully articulated characters with skeletal animations. Currently, it can load the simple objects. It can also load the characters, but it can't load the skeletons or animations.
osgPlugins/bsp:
This contains all of the changes needed to load props along with the basic map geometry. There are also
several bugs fixed.
osgPlugins/vtf:
This is the loader for Valve's texture format. Previously, we had agreed to put this in with the bsp plugin, but I didn't think of the .mdl plugin at that time. It's conceivable that a user might want to load models individually (not as part of a map), so the vtf reader does have to be separate. I also fixed a rather significant bug.
I tested all of this code on RHEL 5.2 (32-bit), and Fedora 9 (64-bit). I'll be testing on Windows soon.
I also attached a simple .mdl file, along with it's associated files and textures. Just extract the tarball into it's own directory, set your OSGFILEPATH to point at that directory, and load the model like this:
osgviewer models/props_junk/gascan001a.mdl"
It's a minimal change, it just calls an already existing protected method. It was trivial to subclass the handler to do it in our code, but pushing the change into OSG makes sense as it's generally useful to have it in the handler itself.
I also noticed that the handle() method was overridden from osgGA::GUIEventHandler but wasn't marked virtual. It wasn't intended that subclasses not be able to override it in turn, so I've added the keyword.""

When running a osg application within microsofts application verifier, that
software checks tells me that we should not unlock an unlocked mutex.
When I look at the posix threads mutex implementation, which does no unlock in
the destructor and where it is illegal to destroy a locked mutex, I conclude
that it is not needed for an OpenThreads::Mutex to do that unlock in the
win32 Mutex destructor.
Thus this patch based on rev 9358 removes that additional unlock in the win32
mutex implementations destructor."

GraphicsWindowCarbon::requestWarpPointer() places the mouse pointer in a (global?) display coordination, but it must be in a local window coordination. This problem is critical because the mouse cursor can go off a window especially when you place the window on the secondary screen.
Attached is the file to fix this problem.
I tested this modified file with the following situations (on FlightGear) and all works fine.
- two windows on two screens (each has one window).
- two windows on two screens (secondary screen has all windows).
- two windows on two screens (primary screen has all windows).
In all scenarios, warp requests (by right-click the mouse) successfully moves the mouse pointer to the center of the main window,
and it is what it's supposed to be in the flightgear."

Also there are 3 example BVH files. The first two are captured from motions of human beings - maybe a kung-fu master here. PLEASE use command below to see the results:
# osgviewer example1.bvh -O solids
This will demonstrate the animating of a skeleton and render bones as solid boxes. Note that the motion assumes XOZ is the ground and has an offset from the center, so we should adjust our view to get best effects.
You may also use "-O contours" to render bones as lines. The viewer shows nothing if without any options because osgAnimation::Bone does not render itself. User may add customized models to each named bones as osganimationskinning does to make uses of this plugin in their own applications.
I was wondering to support a BvhNode in my osgModeling peoject before, but soon found it better be a plugin for animation. A problem is, how to bind real geometry models to the skeleton. Maybe we could have a bindingToNode() visitor in future to find geodes matching names of bones and add them as bones' children."
--------------------------------------------
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.

"To reproduce the bug:
1. Create a template osg::Sequence node (and underlying geometry) but do not attach the node to the current active scenegraph.
2. At some point during the rendering loop (perhaps on a keystroke) clone the sequence node (I use the call:
dynamic_cast<osg::Node*>(templateNode -> clone( osg::CopyOp( (osg::CopyOp::CopyFlags)osg::CopyOp::DEEP_COPY_NODES ) ) )
3. Set the cloned sequence node duration to a value that makes the animation run slower (i.e. 2.0).
4. Start the cloned sequence (using setMode()).
5. Repeat steps 2 \u2013 4 and observe that the cloned sequences do not run slow but run as fast, appearing to ignore the duration that has been set on them.
Looking at the \u2018good documentation\u2019 (2.4 source code), I see that _start is being set to _now (osg::Sequence::setMode(), line 192). Should this not _start not be set to -1.0?"
The plug-in is a wrapper around open-exr (http://www.openexr.com) that consists of two projects, ilmbase-1.0.1 and openexr-1.6.1.
I have only tested it on windows XP 32 machine. So there might be some work making it work on other platforms.
The plug-in supports writing and reading EXR files. When writing it can use the data type GL_HALF_FLOAT_ARB(se ilmbase-1.0.1) and GL_FLOAT. When reading the data type always becomes GL_HALF_FLOAT_ARB. It supports textures with three and four channels.
When reading an exr file it automatically removes Alfa channel if it didn't store any information."

After taking a look at the current state of the BMP loader I decided it might be worth a shot at reimplementing that part. For example: the current loader doesn't properly handle 1- and 4-bit files, incorrectly loads 16-bit files as intensity-alpha (they are RGB555), is full of dead code, and generally not in very good shape.
Attached is my re-implementation for review.
I've checked it against the test images from http://wvnvaxa.wvnet.edu/vmswww/bmp.html and models that use BMP files.

Before:
1. if the camera is not a slave camera
1.1 set the eventState's graphics context to the current context.
2. if the current master view is not the view which has the focus
2.1 set the current master view to be the view which has the focus
2.2 use the new master view's eventState instead of the old one
Now as you can see from this sequence, the graphics context is set on the eventState before switching to the view which has focus (and thus using another eventState). So the new eventState, in the case we need to switch views, will contain an old graphics context, not the correct one.
Just inversing these steps fixes the problem:
1. if the current master view is not the view which has the focus
1.1 set the current master view to be the view which has the focus
1.2 use the new master view's eventState instead of the old one
2. if the camera is not a slave camera
2.1 set the eventState's graphics context to the current context.
Now, the eventState will refer to the correct graphics context in both cases.
Attached is a fixed CompositeViewer.cpp (based on today's SVN) which does this. Note that some other things are done in the 1. and 2. cases, but they have no influence on each other so they can just be swapped without problems.

"it's been a while since I have made the changes but I think it was due to problems with static builds of OpenThreads on windows. I was using
OpenThreads in a communication/synchronisation library (without
OpenSceneGraph). It seems I forgot to post a small change in the CMakeLists file of OpenThreads. If a user turns DYNAMIC_OPENTHREADS to OFF (static build) OT_LIBRARY_STATIC will be defined in the Config.
Without these changes a windows user will always end up with a "__declspec(dllexport)" or "__declspec(dllimport)" which is a problem for static builds."
And another post from Blasius on this topic:
"I tested with VS2005 and VS2008. For 32 bit everything works as expected. For x64 and VS2008 I could successfully do the cmake-configure and then the compilation but I had occasional crashes of cmTryCompileExec.exe (during the cmake-configure phase) which seems to be a cmake bug. With VS2005 and 64bit cmake does not set _OPENTHREADS_ATOMIC_USE_WIN32_INTERLOCKED although the interlocked functionality should be there. If I place the source snippet from the CHECK_CXX_SOURCE_RUNS macro to a separate sourcefile I can compile and run the resulting executable successfully. Forcing OPENTHREADS_ATOMIC_USE_WIN32_INTERLOCKED (on VS2005/x64) reveals a bug in "intrin.h" which seems to be fixed in VS2008 but not in VS2005.
In case anyone is interested the lines:
__MACHINEI(unsigned char _interlockedbittestandset(long *a, long b))
__MACHINEI(unsigned char _interlockedbittestandreset(long *a, long b))
__MACHINEX64(unsigned char _interlockedbittestandset64(__int64 *a, __int64 b))
__MACHINEX64(unsigned char _interlockedbittestandreset64(__int64 *a, __int64 b))
should be changed to:
__MACHINEI(unsigned char _interlockedbittestandset(long volatile *a, long b))
__MACHINEI(unsigned char _interlockedbittestandreset(long volatile *a, long b))
__MACHINEX64(unsigned char _interlockedbittestandset64(__int64 volatile *a, __int64 b))
__MACHINEX64(unsigned char _interlockedbittestandreset64(__int64 volatile *a, __int64 b))
The worst thing that can happen is that interlocked funtionality is not detected during cmake-configure and the mutex fallback is used.
Which reminds me another small glitch in the Atomic header so I attached a corrected version.
Why is the OT_LIBRARY_STATIC added to the config file? It is not needed anywhere.
OT_LIBRARY_STATIC is needed if you are doing static-builds on Windows. See my previous post on that.

support. While testing the pluggin we found a small bug and we are
submitting a patch.
The first attachment is a small program that creates a scene with two
pyramids, transformed by two instances of
osg::PositionAttitudeTransform. One of them is rotated 90 degrees in
the X axis, and the scene is exported both in the native OSG (.osg)
and COLLADA (.dae) formats. In the first case the rotated pyramid is
displayed correctly whereas in the second the pyramid seems not to be
rotated.
In the COLLADA 1.4.1 specification (found at
http://www.khronos.org/collada/) it is specified that
"The <rotate> element contains a list of four floating-point values
[...] followed by an angle in degrees" but the plugin seems to write
the value in radians.
The problem seems to be in the method daeWriter::apply() that seems to
be writing the angle value in radians to the COLLADA file. The patch
can be found in the second attachment and is simply a call to
RadiansToDegrees wrapped around the angle.

It assumes that inverse(_inverseMatrix * _offset) = _offset * _matrix
This is only true when _offset=identity, so I think it should be inverse(_offset) * _matrix
This inconsistency can cause problems when switching from UFO to other manipulators, because the UFO:Manipulator::getMatrix function is not necessarily returning a correct inverse of the currently set ModelViewTransform.

The graph is displayed "under" (behind) the normal bar chart you get when you press 's' twice. It doesn't hide the normal stats, you can still read them without any trouble, and that way, it doesn't take any more screen space. It starts from the left, and will scroll left when there is enough data to fill the screen width. The graph lines have the same colors we're used to (except I made the event color a bit bluer, so it's not exactly the same as the update color). A screen shot is attached.
The lines get a bit confused when they're all overlapping at the bottom of the graph, but I think that's the least of our concerns (if they're all at the bottom of the graph - except FPS of course - then great!).
The only thing I'm not very keen about is that to make things simple, I clamp the values to a given maximum. Right now, the maximums I have set are:
* Frame rate: 100 fps (people have 60, 75, 85Hz refresh rates, so there's no one right value, but I think 100 is OK)
* Stats: 0.016 seconds (what you need to get 60Hz minimum)
This could be changed so that the scale of the graph changes according to the maximum value in the last screenful of the graph instead of clamping values. We would then need to display the scale for each value on the side of the graph, because if the scale changes, you need to know what it is at this moment.
I tried to make things easy to change, so for example if you don't like that the graph is in the same space as the normal stats bars, it's easy to move it anywhere else, and make it have other dimensions. The maximums and colors are also easy to change.
The impact on performance should be minimal, since it's one vertex per graph line that's added per frame, and vertices are removed when they scroll off the screen, so you'll never have more than say 1280 * (3 + ncameras) vertices on the screen at one time. No polygons, I used line strips. The scrolling is done with a MatrixTransform."
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."
Quicktime supports only files with 3/4-channels rgba-files and not 1/2-channels rgb-files.
This submission is from Tatsuhiro Nishioka, here's his original quote:
When FlightGear crashes, the error message
"GraphicsImportGetNaturalBounds failed" shows up. By adding printf
debug, I found the error was -8969: codecBadDataErr when loading a
gray-scaled (2 channels) rgba files even though the file can be loaded
with Gimp and osgViewer properly.
So I made an investigation on this problem and found an interesting
thing. This error occurs only when non-rgb files are loaded before rgb
files. The reason is that rgba files can be handled by both
osgdb_rgb.so and osgdb_qt.so, but the error happens only when
osgdb_qt.so try to load a gray-scaled rgba file.
When a program is about to load an rgba file, osgdb_rgb.so is loaded
and it handles the rgba file properly. In contrast, when a gray-scaled
rgb file is being loaded after a non-rgb file (say png) is already
loaded by osgdb_qt.so, osgdb_qt.so tries to load the file instead of
osgdb_rgb, which causes the error above.
Anyway, the bad thing is that QuickTime cannot handle gray-scaled rgb
files properly. The solution for this is not to let osgdb_qt handle
rgb files since osgdb_rgb can handle these properly.

I think I may have discovered a bug in osgShadow/ShadowMap.cpp that results in incomplete shadows being generated.
The problem seems to caused by an incorrect interpretation of the spot light cutoff angle. The valid ranges for spot cutoff are 0-90 and 180, i.e half the 'field of view' for the spotlight. Whereas the shadow map code seems to assume the the spot cutoff is equal to the field of view. This results in the shadows generated by the spotlight getting clipped at half the spot cutoff angle.
I have fixed this in my copy of ShadowMap.cpp:
===============================
//Original code from OSG 2.6:
if(selectLight->getSpotCutoff() < 180.0f) // spotlight, then we don't need the bounding box
{
osg::Vec3 position(lightpos.x(), lightpos.y(), lightpos.z());
float spotAngle = selectLight->getSpotCutoff();
_camera->setProjectionMatrixAsPerspective(spotAngle, 1.0, 0.1, 1000.0);
_camera->setViewMatrixAsLookAt(position,position+lightDir,osg::Vec3(0.0f,1.0f,0.0f));
}
===============================
// My modifications:
float fov = selectLight->getSpotCutoff() * 2;
if(fov < 180.0f) // spotlight, then we don't need the bounding box
{
osg::Vec3 position(lightpos.x(), lightpos.y(), lightpos.z());
_camera->setProjectionMatrixAsPerspective(fov, 1.0, 0.1, 1000.0);
_camera->setViewMatrixAsLookAt(position,position+lightDir,osg::Vec3(0.0f,1.0f,0.0f));
}
This change seems correct for spot cutoff in the range 0, 90, but since OpenGL doesn't claim to support cutoffs >90 && <180, I'm not sure how shadow map should deal with those cases, but ignoring spot cut off greater than 90 here seems reasonable to me.

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:

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

polygon offset complicate. so i looked for a solution to remove this offset.
i changed the shader, also the filtering (default: on) use now a correct 3x3 filter:
1 0 1
0 2 0
1 0 1
div: 6
of course a better one would be
1 2 1
2 4 2
1 2 1
div: 16
but this isn't as performant as the simple filter above is. because we need only 5 texture lookups instead of 9, and the result is still good, if you wish we can add a enum to change the pcf filter type once, if there is a need.

I have found some errors on the example osgGeometryShaders. It's about the varying in the geometry shader.
take a look at the varying vec4 v_color.
In the vertex shader, v_color is initialized to gl_vertex
then in the geometry shader v_color is initialized to gl_PositionIn[0]
and in the fragment shader v_color is used as the fragment color.
Try to initialized v_color to vec4(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0) in the vertex shader and comment the line :
" v_color = v;\n" in the geometry shader, and you will see the lines as black !
It's because you have to use keywords in and out.
extract from : http://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/EXT/geometry_shader4.txt :
in - for function parameters passed into a function or for input varying
variables (geometry only)
out - for function parameters passed back out of a function, but not
initialized for use when passed in. Also for output varying variables
(geometry only).
Then for a geometry shader, a varying must be an array :
extract from : http://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/EXT/geometry_shader4.txt :
Since a geometry shader operates on primitives, each input varying variable needs to be
declared as an array. Each element of such an array corresponds to a
vertex of the primitive being processed. If the varying variable is
declared as a scalar or matrix in the vertex shader, it will be a
one-dimensional array in the geometry shader. Each array can optionally
have a size declared. If a size is not specified, it inferred by the
linker and depends on the value of the input primitive type.
Here is a patch based on the svn version of osg that correct that.

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.

occlusion query result is not ready for retrieval when the app tries to
retrieve it. This fix adds an application-level wait loop to ensure the
result is ready for retrieval. This code is not compiled by default; add "-D
FORCE_QUERY_RESULT_AVAILABLE_BEFORE_RETRIEVAL" to get this code.
Full, gory details, to the best of my recollection:
The conditions under which we encountered this issue are as follows: 64-bit
processor, Mac/Linux OS, multiple NVIDIA GPUs, multiple concurrent draw
threads, VRJuggler/SceneView-based viewer, and a scene graph containing
OcclusionQueryNodes. Todd wrote a small test program that produces an almost
instant crash in this environment. We verified the crash does not occur in a
similar environment with a 32-bit processor, but we have not yet tested on
Windows and have not yet tested with osgViewer.
The OpenGL spec states clearly that, if an occlusion query result is not yet
ready, an app can go ahead and attempt to retrieve it, and OpenGL will
simply block until the result is ready. Indeed, this is how
OcclusionQueryNode is written, and this has worked fine on several platforms
and configurations until Todd's test program.
By trial and error and dumb luck, we were able to workaround the crash by
inserting a wait loop that forces the app to only retrieve the query after
OpenGL says it is available. As this should not be required (OpenGL should
do this implicitly, and more efficiently), the wait loop code is not
compiled by default. Developers requiring this work around must explicitly
add "-D FORCE_QUERY_RESULT_AVAILABLE_BEFORE_RETRIEVAL" to the compile
options to include the wait loop."
when applying styles to a Label element the code below runs in a infinite loop.
The reason for this is that nothing increments the Reader "r" in the case when applying a style to label,
so I advance the reader when no match was found.
( To replicate the error apply style to any label)
replaced this:
while(!r.eof()) if(_styles[style]->applyStyle(t, r)) inc = true;
with this:
while(!r.eof())
{
if(_styles[style]->applyStyle(t, r))
inc = true;
else
r.advanceOverCurrentFieldOrBlock();

I tested it and it works well for me, I did not find any problems with it.

"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.

1) The "highest res" child is assumed to be the child with index "getNumFileNames()-1" or "getNumChildren()-1". As a result, PagedLODs that do not sort children from furthest to nearest will intersect with the wrong child. (see attached "case1.osg" to reproduce this problem.)
2) The code assumes there is only one highest res child. As a result. PagedLODs with multiple children at the same highest res range can only intersect one of those children. ("case2.osg" demonstrates this issue; you can only pick the quad on the right.)
I've attached a modified IntersectionVisitor.cpp that attempts to resolve these issues. It identifies a highest res range based on the range mode, then continues traversal on all valid children corresponding to that range description. Only in the case of a malformed PagedLOD does the code fall back to getting the last child in the list.

Notes from Robert Osfield, completed the work in change d entries to use OSG_DEBUG_POSTFIX
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.
The first bug is that the terrain tiles will page out to a lower LOD when they are right in front of you. The issue appears to be with the blacklisting heuristic which forces a tile to LOD 1, commenting out the usage of blacklisting with the LOD Nodes fixes our problem. This code change was made to line 29 of TXPPageLOD.cpp.
The second bug we were experiencing is that the database reader options never make it through to the archive loader. The use case for us appeared when the FID codes for the terrain were no longer on the materials. As it turns out the archive was being created twice, once by TXPNode and once by the ReaderWriterTXP on getArchive() so the options never actually got set on the archive that was being loaded. The fix is to first create the archive by calling getArchive on the ReaderWriterTXP, which stores it in a map for reference later, and then passing that archive into the TXPNode for it to set its internal member. With this code change we only create one archive (not sure what creating two did) and our options flags get set properly on the database.
The changes made are in TXPNode.h line 72 where the TXPArchive is now passed in. In the TXPNode.cpp the loadArchive(TXPArchive*) was changed to have the default behavior if NULL is passed in, if an archive is passed in then it does not load it since all the loading is done in the ReaderWriterTXP::getArchive(). The only other place that loadArchive is called is in TXPIO.cpp where a modification was made to pass in NULL which will have the same behavior as it used to. The last change is the little block of code starting on line 57 of ReaderWriterTXP.cpp, this was changed so that it first calls getArchive() which caches the archives in a map does some loading stuff and returns a pointer to it which is then passed in as a parameter to TXPNode::loadArchive().
The performance changes were made to TXPParser.cpp line 163 where we use to osgUtil::Optimizer on the node before passing it off, and on line 1456 we changed the geometry to use display lists. These small changes actually made drastic performance increases for us, as much as 1000% on certain laptops.
As far as testing goes, we have tested these changes with at least 5 txp databases on a variety of different computers including Mac OS and Linux. The base version used is 2.4."
The reason is if you want to build an application that use a library that use openscenegraph you have to build the full chain in debug or in release.

osg::ref_ptr<osg::Node> ReaderWriterVRML2::convertFromVRML(openvrml::node *obj)
The fixes are:
* Added the source's parent directory as search directory for image files.
* The material properties are now set in the stateset of the Geode rather than the Geometry. This will allow geometries to be reused with different material properties in future updates.
NB: I planned for a caching scheme in which multiple occurences of the same primitive (e.g., Cylinders with radius 0.8 and height 1.2), would use the same Geometry object. Unfortunately, my planning moved me to other areas, but I might still finish the caching scheme in a quiet hour. For the time being I decided it would be a good thing to already submit my current changes.

Finally it seems to not come from the empty geode. The origin of the problem seems to be the uniform initialization during the building of the program which call a glUseProgram.
If your scene never display the node that contains the shader and if there is no other shader on the scene, this "glUseProgram" is the only one that is called during your simulation. So, this shader is applied on all the scene.
I fix this bug by switching off the shader (by calling glUseProgram(0) ) during the compilation of a state which does not contain the shader.

Changes includes:
1. A new GifImageStream class (inherit from osg::ImageStream and OpenThreads::Thread) have already been added to implement different operations of a GIF movie, such like playing, pausing, rewinding, setting time and so on.
2. Some small changes to decode_row() and gif_read_stream(), which make the transparency of GIF images correctly.
3. Just a few changes to the ReaderWriterGIF::readGIFStream() function, which ensure that animate GIFs are loaded by GifImageStream (and the function returns GifImageStream objects) and static GIFs unchanged (still use the old method and returns osg::Image objects!).
Attachments are the cpp file and an animate GIF file for further test. Just rebuild the osgdb_gif project and use osgviewer or osgmovie to view it.

"Ok, hold the presses. I just discovered that for some odd reason the osgdb_* plugins under Linux aren't getting put under the osgPlugins-2.5.0 folder. Not exactly sure why this broke, the folder was there, just empty. I'll have to look into it this evening."
post 3:
"Fixed, was caused by the switch to CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY and some code in osgPlugins/CMakeLists.txt that effectively overrides LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH on non-MSVC compilers to dump the plugins in the plugins folder.

The current 2.5.0 daePlugin assumes the following binding
CLAMP ->GL_CLAMP

* I split the mouse handling from a monolithic method to separate ones, slightly cleaner than a whole bunch of if()'s, especially with another case of the mouse entering the canvas.
* I changed the EVT_KEY_DOWN handler to an EVT_CHAR handler, although that now makes the up and down handler assymetric. The new down-handler returns translated key codes, so when you press the S key (without anything else), it actually returns 's' and not 'S' as the EVT_KEY_DOWN did. This means that statistics can be called up in the viewer window, while the example previously only printed a "Stats output:" line to the console. I'm not truly happy that the up handler returns _untranslated_ key codes. But solving this completely would probably mean adding some table that translated from wxWidgets' untranslated key codes to OSG's internal ones. This might be interesting to add, as anyone using OSG + wxWidgets in any serious manner would also have to add this.
* I commented out the evt.Skip()'s in the keyboard handlers as these would only be necessary if there were some key events that are not handled. But currently all key events are simply forwarded.
* I changed the handling of a mouse drag to a more general mouse move"
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.
ReaderWriter::ReadResult now has a FILE_REQUEST enum.
ReaderWriter::Options now has a s/getAsynchronousFileReadHint() parameter methods.
libcurl based plugin now detects enabing of the AsynchronousFileReadHint, but
as yet does not handle async requests - handling everything syncronously.
DatabasePager now by default will enable AsynchronousFileReadHint for http
based file requests

It might seem odd that the change actually removes the stub apply(Billboard&) method, but it turns out Billboards are easily supported in subordinate routines of the existing apply(Geode&) method with s dynamic_cast, so there's no need for a separate apply(Billboard&)."

get an excess Tab key report when switching back to an OSG
application (usually FlightGear :-). Although KDE has consumed
the Tab, it's sometimes still in the XKeymapEvent's key_vector,
and followed by a Tab KeyRelease event.
Avoid this artifact by
- asking for a "fresh" keymap (via XQueryKeymap()), rather than
using the unreliable(?) XKeymapEvent's key_vector, and by
- flushing all key events on focus-in (to avoid the KeyRelease)
After Super-press, Tab-press, Super-release, Tab-release (note
the wrong release order!) I still get an extra Tab event. But
this is not surprising and not exactly wrong either. Also it's
hard to avoid, as we can't see what happened to the keyboard
before we regained focus.
Files changed:

I've spotted huge memory leaks int ShapeParser and fixed them.
Also, there was a missing destructor (PolygonM) and a missing member initialization (PolygonZ)
Would be nice if someone could test the changes.
To release the memory just if no reading error happened (and therefore the arrays would be valid) I've added an macro to release and reset the pointers at once. I'm not using macros myself very often as I don't like them, but I think it doesn't hurt in this code.

In essence, the FLT exporter was emitting a full set of Mesh records each time it encountered a PrimitiveSet.
Attached is a fix. The code now emits the Mesh set up records, then iterates over all PrimitiveSets and emits a Mesh Primitive record per PrimitiveSet.
It also loops over PrimitiveSets twice, first writing Face records according to the mode, the writing Mesh records (again according to the mode).
The final change included here is support for GL_POINTS as single-vertex Face records.

hyper keys defined already, but these modifiers were missing in
GUIEventAdapter::ModKeyMask, and the EventQueue ingored them as well.
The attached diff/archive adds the missing parts for Super/Hyper
modifier key support.
I'm aware that this might not be supported on all systems/keyboards
out of the box, but decided to submit it anyway because:
- developers are aware of differences between input devices
(Some mice have scroll wheels, others don't. Some have five or
more buttons, some have only one. Some keyboards don't have
numpads, some have AltGr, some don't etc.)
- even if someone relies on Hyper/Super in distributed software,
this is easy to fix and doesn't create lock-in conditions
- while the names Hyper/Super may only be common on X11, they are
just symbol names and not OS-specific
- even though some systems might not offer these additional modifiers
by default, it's likely that all of them have at least 8 modifier
levels internally, so it should only be a matter of OS configuration
to make them work
- having super/hyper available is useful to offer a user ways
to define local key definitions that are safe from collisions with
predefined "official" key assignments"

unconditionally sets the X11 error handler routine, replacing anything

key, but it didn't pick up the initial state. So, if NumLock was on for
the OS at startup (LED on), it was still off for OSG. And the first
keypress turned the LED off, and NumLock on for OSG. The attached fix
picks up the state on every FocusIn, just like it was done in the last
commits for CapsLock. The difference is, that the NumLock mask isn't
standardized (e.g. 0x10 for Linux, and 0x80 for AIX), so we have to do
a reverse lookup (::rescanModifierMapping()).
Note that I could not reproduce the problem on my system, but someone

1) Full DOS paths are now correctly opened by OpenVRML. A URL containing

2) The last primitive defined in "coordIndex" is now added if the
"coordIndex" is not terminated by -1.
3) Smoothed normals are computed if no normal field is provided.
Currently, there is no support for "creaseAngle", so all edges (even the
ones sharper than the creaseAngle) are smoothed. I might add this in the
future if demand rises.
4) If an IndexedFaceSet contains only triangles or quads then the
primitive type is set to TRIANGLES or QUADS, and the primset becomes
DrawArrays rather than DrawArrayLengths.
Question: I noticed that for DrawArrays you can still provide an index

rather than DrawArrays? Phrased differently, what is the benefit of
using DrawElements over DrawArrays, as there is clearly not a one-to-one
mapping of these concepts to their OpenGL counterparts?

"texture" paths. This is to drop absolute paths that some
3d editors export (even AC3D itself!). But this also strips
directories of relative paths, which is wrong and contradicts
the ac3d reference implementation. (The reference implementation
doesn't strip anything, though, and so takes the absolute paths
as they are. Definitely not what we want.)
The attached solution checks absolute paths and only strips
those:

The win32 pbuffer implementation returned an error unless both the
WGL_ARB_pbuffer and the WGL_ARB_render_texture functions were present.
This was too restrictive, as a pbuffer can usefully be created without
render-to-texture, e.g. for use with glReadPixels. The osg 1.2/Producer
pbuffers worked without RTT, and osgUtil::RenderStage has all the code to
handle both RTT and non-RTT pbuffers, doing a read and copy in the
latter case.
With these changes I have successfully tested the osgprerender example
on a graphics card which supports RTT, and one which doesn't. Plus
tested in my own application.
In order to aid diagnostics I have also added more function status
return checks, and associated error messages. I have included the win32
error text in all error messages output. And there were some errors
with multi-threaded handling of "bind to texture" and a temporary window
context which I have corrected.
These is one (pre-existing) problem with multi-threaded use of pbuffers
in osgViewer & osgprerender, which I have not been able to fix. A win32
device context (HDC) can only be destroyed from the thread that created
it. The pbuffers for pre-render cameras are created in
osgUtil::RenderStage::runCameraSetUp, from the draw thread. But
closeImplementation is normally invoked from the destructor in the main
application thread. With the additional error messages I have added,
osgprerender will now output a couple of warnings from
osgViewer::PixelBufferWin32::closeImplementation() at exit, after
running multi-threaded on windows. I think that is a good thing, to
highlight the problem. I looked into fixing it in osgViewer::Renderer &
osgUtil::RenderStage, but it was too involved for me. My own
application requirements are only single-threaded.

When objects are not centered at 0,0,0 coord but in some distant location (for example at surface of earth ellipsoid) shadow texgen suffers from inadequate precision of float matrices. I changed that by premultiplying Texgen matrix (using OSG double matrices) with inverse modelview and applying it later with ModelView identity matrix. This tweak may be appropriate for OverlayNode texgen as well.
I left former version because I suspect that this change will make osgShadow::ShadowMap view dependant. Currently texgen matrix remains the same no matter what View displays it. With my change it wuld be different for each view. This touches the subject of View Dependent Shadow Techniques that J-S asked recently."

remain in pressed state after revealing, even if they are no
longer pressed on the keyboard. This can have bad effects,
especially if the stuck keys are modifier keys. One has to
press and release the stuck keys again to reset the wrong state.
The fix keeps track of all key presses and releases. On FocusOut
and UnmapNotify it releases all keys that are in pressed state,
and on KeymapNotify (following a FocusIn), it sets the currently
pressed keys again. To avoid confusion in the OSG-using application
normal keys are always reported released /before/ and pressed
/after/ modifier keys.
As current key states are returned as char[32] keymap by
XQueryKeymap and XKeymapEvent, this format is also used to
recognize modifier keys and for maintaining the current
internal key state. Functions to set/clear/query bits in
such a keymap are added.
The patch was extensively tested with osgkeyboard and
FlightGear under KDE and fvwm2. It was not tested on a
Xinerama setup or with multiple windows, but as _eventDisplay
is used throughout, there should be no problems. The patch also
makes the following changes:
- removes old and obsolete handling of modifier keys in ::adaptKey().
This wasn't only unused, but also wrong (and for that reason commented
out in revision 7066). The modifier states are actually handled
in ./src/osgGA/EventQueue.cpp (EventQueue::keyPress/keyRelease).
- fixes some spelling"
The modifications I made are very small but they are absolutely usefull to use osgIntrospection with visual studio 7.1 or 8 in debug modes.
This should also solve other minor common problems (converter memory leak, virtual destructor for PropertyInfo, etc...).
I choosed two function names : Reflection::uninitialize() and Type::reset(), this can of course be changed if someone has a better idea...
I made the changes against OSG 2.2.0 public release. I tested the result with VS 7.1, VS 7.1 SP1, VS 8.0 SP1 and AQTime 5.0 on Windows XP SP2... All 4 seem to agree : they detected memory leaks before and don't anymore.
Sorry I haven't take the time to test that on linux but the changes are so small I doubt there could be a problem... I let you check that on your side :-).
I hope this will help making OSG an even more wonderfull library."
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.
----2----
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"

To accopmplish this for MSVC_IDE the targets get a "../../bin" prefix,

Specifically, in FreeTypeLibrary::~FreeTypeLibrary(), calling
font->setImplementation(0); deletes the content pointed to by the
fontImplementation pointer, while the line the immediately follows
tries to access it.
My fix is to make the second instruction part of an else clause rather
than always executed. This way, the fontImplementation->_facade = 0
instruction is only executed when the font implementation is not set
to 0 before (although I have no idea what it is here for and if this
code path is ever followed, since I don't know the plugin's internals

The CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH has also been added to help people. I don't
recommend adding this to the other modules because it looks like CMake

that ships, people will get it for free. (In the meantime, my modules

submitted here as OSG already has these conflicts. I figured I would
just sync OSG up with my current/best versions.
Also of note, I added the large batch of Findosg*.cmake modules to
CMake so people building against OpenSceneGraph can use these without
writing their own. I wasn't sure if I should submit them here or not
since they are for building against OSG and not for building OSG
itself. So they are not included.

setting the mode to START. This does not work as expected. The _now

For example, if the mode was set to STOP and left that way for 30

to START all the items will flash by (in 3 loops) while the _now time

64 bit binary compatible OSGA archive reader/writer using mixed
stdio/iostream calls. But during this work I learned that it can be made in
much simpler way.
Attached is result of this new attempt. I hope its appropriate for inclusion
into OSG codebase. It was compiled and tested with latest SVN OSG, Windows
XP 32 bit and Windows Vista business 64 bit. OSG was built using VS 2005
Express SP1 for 32 bit environment and VS 2005 Std for 64 bit.
---
Solution description (there were two problems involved):
---
Problem 1: implicit conversions beetween file positions and 32 bit int. This
could be considered a MS compiler bug because this 32 bit int was
additionally implicitly converted to/from 64 bit. As far as I know compiler
is allowed to make only one implict conversion (but maybe this rule does not
refer to simple types).
Its actually possible to address OSGA files above 4 GiB range using 32 bit
windows iostreams. MS Iostreams in practice offer the same level of
functionality as stdio functions. There are functions fsetpos and fgetpos in
stdio lib which use 64 bit file pointers (fpos_t). These functions are
internally called by seekp( streampos ), seekg( streampos ), tellp(), and
tellg() methods. So its also possible to change and retrieve file postions
using iostream calls. But the problem lies in implicit handling of streampos
type.
streampos type is actually a template class used as seekp, seekg parameter
and returnd from tellp, tellg. Its capable of storing 64 bit file pointers.
But streampos can be also converted to/from simple type streamoff. It has
proper constructor and cast operator. In Win 32 environment streamoff is
defined as long (~32 bit int). So when seekp, and tellp arent used with
exact streampos objects but OSGA_Archive::pos_type complier makes implicit
casts to 32 bit int types loosing important bits of information.
So above problem could be easily handled by making conversion calls
explicit. My code defines 2 functions used to convert back and forth beetwen
64 bit OSGA_Archive::pos_type and std::streampos objects:
OSGA_Archive::pos_type ARCHIVE_POS( const std::streampos & pos );
std::streampos STREAM_POS( OSGA_Archive::pos_type & pos );
Rest of the OSGA implementation code was modified to call these conversions
explicitly with seekp, seekg, tellp, tellg.
---
Problem 2: seekp and seekg have two variants. Only one of these variants is
actually 64 bit proof.
When I solved my first problem and made use of explicit streampos conversion
functions, OSGA archive was able to read my example 11 GiB archive. But
there were still problems with write and append. I found that the reason for
this was pair of seekp( 0, std::ios_base::end ) and tellp() calls. It turned
out that use of seekp, seekg( offset, direction ) function variants was
setting file pos pointer to EOF when file was larger than 4GiB. But I
noticed that one arg seekp, seekg ( streampos ) versions worked correctly.
So the solution was to change OSGA write logic a little, and replace
seekp( offset, direction ) with seekp( absolute_pos ) calls.
I achieved this by modifing IndexBlock write method to record and restore
file pos after IndexBlock was written. This modification has the effect that
put pointer is generally kept at the end of file, so there is no need to
repostion to the end before writing the files. This allowed me to get rid of
those problematic seekp( 0, std::ios_base::end ) calls.
There was one place where I could not easily get rid of seekp( 0,
std::ios_base::end ). It was situation where existing OSGA was opened for
appending. I resolved this by computing file length by finding max position
from index block and file block endings. Then I replaced former seekp( 0,
std::ios_base::end ) with seekp( STREAM_POS( found_file_length ).
---
Description of these changes may sound bit hacky but in practice these were
fairly simple and straightforward modifications. I hope they pass your
review. There is one complex preprocessor condition which I based on few
lines taken from boost positioning.hpp. Boost licence does allow such
reproduction. In case of problems this condition may be easily simplified to
windows only implementation.

1. DAE object no longer held onto by plugin.
2. Filename to URI conversion now handled internally by plugin.
2. User can supply an external DAE object for use by the plugin.
3. User can supply a std:string object for the plugin to return the URI of
the document just processed.
4. User can supply a std::string to receive the unit name information from
the document just read in. (e.g. meters, inches, etc.)
5. User can supply a float to receive the metric conversion factor from the
document just read in.
6. User can supply an enum to receive the up axis orientation information
from the document just read in.
7. Material transparency can be both read and written.
8. User can supply an experimental GoogleMode option on output. The plugin
will try to emulate the way Sketchup specifies transparency (i.e. the
inverse of what it should be!). I am still struggling to get GE to
understand transparency, anyone know what it expects?

Previously the complete StateSet was cleared, even the non clipping releted
state attributes and modes in this stateset on a call to
setLocalSetateSetModes.
With this change only those modes/attributes are changed that need to be
changed. That is, if a clip plane is removed from the ClipNode, only this
assiciated mode is removed from the state set, instead of throwing away the
whole state set.
In this way we have less surprising results if the state set of a clip node is
used for more state than just the clip state.

Ugh. Another fix for the cycle problem. It seems that the SDKROOT didn't necessarily solve the problem, but there were some unneeded library dependencies that weren't in my test fork which allowed my test to work, but caused SVN to fail.

One can also set the default value of this option via the DEFAULT_GLU_TESS_CALLBACK_TRIPLEDOT

that require more Uniforms can put them in a central place

There are two additions that do not ( yet ) function correctly, but in
the present usage they do not interfere with the regular usage of the

- support for using spotlights, it's using Light.spotCutoff to determine
if it's a spot-light and not point-light,
there is an error in the setup of either the shadow camera or the
texgen, most likely due to the direction of the spotlight, since the
position is being used just like in point or directional lights.
- creation of a debugHUD
the hud is created properly, ( the example included shows it ), but
it displays only white, there has been some discussion of displaying the
shadow map, but I could not find it, the addition of a simple fragment
shader with the appropriate color transform should get this going."

attached code adds this, along with a member variable to keep track of
the setting. It is based on the latest subversion version, and was
tested by creating a new text object with the same axis alignment as an
existing one (e.g.
new_text->setAxisAlignment(old_text->getAxisAlignment()); )."
From Robert Osfield, " I originally didn't add a getAxisAlignment()
as all setAxisAlignment does is set the Rotation member variable, and
potentially one could apply user defined Rotation setting after the
setAxisAlignment() which would bring it out of sync with the
setAxisAlignment.
Rather than reject your submission on the ground of potentially
getting out of sync and therefore misleading users I've added a
USED_DEFINED_ROTATION to AxisAlignment enum, and set this in the
serRotation and then override this setting of _axisAlignment in the
setAxisAlingment method. I've also removed the lazy updating
optimization you've added to the top of setAxisAlignment to avoid
potential problems as well."

I change the overlay subgraph dynamically and when I remove all the

- GL2Extensions, Program and Program.cpp
Features:
- Support for fragment output binding. (e.g. You can now specify in the fragment shader varying out vec3 fragOut; fragOut = vec3(1,0,1); to write to the fragOut variable. In your program you call glBindFragDataLocation(program, 1, "fragOut") to bind the fragOut variable with the MRT 1 - GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT1_EXT)
- new methods Program::add/removeBindFragDataLocation Program::getFragDataBindingList
"
- Implementation of integer textures as in EXT_texture_integer
- setBorderColor(Vec4) changed to setBorderColor(Vec4d) to pass double values
as border color. (Probably we have to provide an overloading function to
still support Vec4f ?)
- new method Texture::getInternalFormatType() added. Gives information if the
internal format normalized, float, signed integer or unsigned integer. Can
help people to write better code ;-)
"
Futher changes to this submission by Robert Osfield, changed the dirty mipmap
flag into a buffer_value<> vector to ensure safe handling of multiple contexts.
local function pointer to avoid compiler warnings related to case void*.
Moved various OSG classes across to using setGLExtensions instead of getGLExtensions,
and changed them to use typedef declarations in the headers rather than casts in
the .cpp.
Updated wrappers
"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
as texture targets for a camera with 6 layers/faces
(i.e. replacement for cube maps). I am using the array
textures in shader programming. Array textures can be
attached to the FBO and used as input and as output."
CmakeLists.txt and to the FindPerformer.cmake module.
Under Windows libs are: libpf.lib (we need to add the lib prefix) and
libpfdu-util.lib (libpfdu and libpfutil are compiled into one lib)
We need to add PFROOT to the search path for libs and includes (default
environment variable for Performer path)
And at last we need to put PFROOT/include and PFROOT/include/Performer
as include dir for compiling."

So now there'll be Group as often as possible, otherwise PostitionAttitudeTransform."
Note from Robert Osfield. A couple of lines of code in ConvertToInventor.cpp
would not compile under g++ 4.1.2, so rather than hold back the dev release till
this is resolved I've optional compiled out the problem section.
The #define DISABLE_PROBLEM_COMPILE_SECTIONS is used to compile out the problem
section, this define is add via the CMakeLists.txt file.
GL_LUMINANCE data instead of GL_RGB data. You can easily check with
"osgViewer --image klink1_l.tif".
The bug is in ReaderWriterTIFF.cpp function simage_tiff_load, where
numComponents_ret is incorrectly set to 1 instead of 3 for color mapped
data."
Attached the modified version of MFC_OSG_MDIView.cpp and MFC_OSG_MDIView.h."
Note from Robert Osfield, submission came with wrong header file, so have had
to guess at what it should be, fingers crossed it worn't break windows build... :-)
osgviewerWX: "To make the example compile using a wx build non UNICODE based.

stereo format to work. It's a good thing I tested these on a TV
before submitting them since I did indeed have a bug. One thing I
did not test was to see how this would work in windowed mode. Does
the interlaced stereo code have support for 'absolute' positions?
For example a given pixel on the screen is always shown in a given
eye no matter where the graphics context is placed?
"
src/osgDB/FileUtils.cpp to implement the official Windows DLL search
order as described on the page
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682586.aspx . As mentioned,
the search order is now:
1. The directory from which the application loaded.
2. The system directory. (C:\Windows\System32 by default, gotten using the
GetSystemDirectory function)
3. The 16-bit system directory. (C:\Windows\System by default, gotten by
adding "\System" to the path gotten in the next step...)
4. The Windows directory. (C:\Windows by default, gotten using the
GetWindowsDirectory function)
5. The current directory. (".")
6. The directories that are listed in the PATH environment variable. (as
before)
The first four directories are obtained using Win32 API calls, so they
should work correctly even on non-standard Windows installs.
The changes are well commented and should be clear, even to someone
not familiar with the Win32 API.
I have tested in a few scenarios and it works as expected. Serge Lages
has also tested the changes and confirmed they worked as described. I
have not had any other reports though (positive or negative).
I also fixed the issue with a trailing semicolon on the PATH adding an
empty string to the end of the search paths, as this was an
inconsistent side effect rather than a desirable effect. This change
will take effect on other platforms as well, but since it tests for an
empty string in the last item added to the search paths, it should
have no adverse effect.
"
will bring the change in line with what is done on other OSes (Linux)
and works in all tested cases.
For reference, this was tested with:
osgviewer <file>.wrl (file in current directory)
osgviewer <dir>\<file>.wrl (file in child directory, relative)
osgviewer .\<dir>\<file>.wrl (file in child directory, specify current)
osgviewer <drive>:\<dir>\<file>.wrl (absolute path)

between the user and osg-class. This is a first step to add more
functions in osgTerrain. Maybe the subdivision of the method have to
be in the terraintechnique because is the base class of
GeometryTechnique. If Robert or anyone think that this is better i
change this class too."
precise, the shader does not compile on os x because of some
type-conflicts ala "can not convert from const int to const float"
So I changed the offending lines to force the type of the vars. It works
now on OS X (albeit very slowly, 3fps on a 7300), perhaps you find the
changes useful. Note: perhaps there is a better way in shaders to
cast/convert from int to float and viceversa."

The bug prevented DOF animations because osgSim::DOFTransform checks

1) added texture->setResizeNonPowerOfTwoHint(false); when loading an
image. It speeds up by 10 the loading of large images.
2) added a --disk option : only a filelist is read, images are only
loaded when needed. It allows to handle very large set of very large
images that would not fit in memory. Nothing change when the option is
not set."
OpenVRML 0.14.3 and is without the Boost dependency.
The changes:
- - Fixed loading of textures and normals when no corresponding indices
are specified. It uses vertex indices now, compliant with the VRML spec.
- - Added colour per vertex support.
- - Added group node support.
- - Changed the code to use osg::ref_ptr instead of naked pointers to
avoid memory leaks.
- - Fixed breakage for loading files specified by relative path."
"I have adapted to osgShadow the soft shadow map technique described in "Efficient Soft-Edged Shadows Using Pixel Shader Branching" by Yury Uralsky, Chapter 17 of GPU Gems 2 (Matt Pharr ed. Addison-Wesley).
Here is my code in attachment: basically, it works in the same way as osgShadow/ShadowMap (core code is copied from it) but implements a specific GLSL shader for the soft rendering of penumbra.
I have tested it under Linux with a NVidia graphic card, but there should be no dependency on platform nor on the graphics driver (as far as they support GLSL 2). Screenshots attached show the current results (frame rate bound to v-sync, but the shader takes actually not much time)."
to the view to be done during syncronous updateTraversal().
This feature can be used for doing things like merging subgraphs that have been loaded
in a background thread.
Attached a modification that read the HeigthField position and X,Yintervals.
I also removed the limitation to 1024*1024 to 4096*4096, because when you are preprocessing your data with OSG, it can be useful to read large images/heigthfields. Is there a reason (other than hardware limitations for textures) for this limit ?"
various operating system differences between socklen_t and int have
broken the FreeBSD build. Change was to add __FreeBSD__ to the list of
defines that are checked."

multiple GraphicsWindows, this singleton is accessable via GUIEventEvent::getAccumulatedEventState().
Added use of this new singleton in GraphicsWindow* implementations.
Added WindowSizeHandler to osgkeyboard to help with debugging of event state
between windows.
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.
completed the new registration of the plugin-readerwriters
("REGISTER_OSGPLUGIN") according to your osgstaticviewer-example (see
attachment, based on today's svn)."
Added and cleaned up DeleteHandler calls in osgViewer to help avoid crashes on exit.
Changed DatabasePager across to dynamically checcking osg::getCompileContext(..)
Updated wrappers.
I've also added a little offset to the windows' positions so that their decoration falls inside the desktop and we can manipulate them - it looks a bit less "made out of wood"."
The current code takes the mouse cursor position and adds it to the
window (left,top) position, and sends the mouse cursor there. But this
doesn't take into account the window decoration.
The new code converts the given (x,y) coordinates from the client area
coordinate system to the screen instead using ClientToScreen. I think
this is the natural windows way to do it.
Tested on XP with osgviewer
"
Note from Robet Osfield, made a few changes to layout to make it more consistent
with the rest of the OSG and used #if 0 instead if (0) blocks.

Found in the join file the fix for the bug found by Rafa.
Problem :
osgIntrospection::Value grp(new osg::Group);
osgIntrospection::ValueList vlcall;
vlcall.push_back(osgIntrospection::Value("toto"));
const osgIntrospection::MethodInfo *m =
grp->getType.getCompatibleMethod("setName", vlcall, true);
if (m)
{
m->invoke(grp, vlcall); // ** SEGFAULT here
}
Algorithm explanation :
The "invoke" method try to convert "grp", which reflect an
"osg::Group*", in a
"osgIntrospection::Value", which reflect a "osg::Node*".
This because
the "setName(const char *)" method found by
"grp->getType.getCompatibleMethod"
is an "osg::Object" type method.
When osgIntrospection do this conversion it try :
- to found a "osgIntrospection::Converter" to convert
from "osg::Group*" to "osg::Node*"
- to found a chain of "osgIntrospection::Converter" to convert
from "osg::Group*" to "one or many type" to "osg::Node*"
- to converte an Enum to int or unsigned int
- to convert the value in its "value string representation",
then converte this string in the destination value
Else it throw a "TypeConversionException".
Bug :
1)
When osgIntrospection try to found a chain of
"osgIntrospection::Converter"
It could do any downcast or (Type to SuperType) or upcast
(SuperType to Type).
This mean the the chain could be :
osg::Group to osg::Transform to osg::Camera to
osg::CullSettings to osg::CullStack to
osg::CollectOccludersVisitor to
osg::NodeVisitor to osg::Referenced to osg::Object
During the convertion with this chain, A METTRE failed and
the pointer in
"grp" is set NULL. But the "grp" is always a valid
"osgIntrospection::Value"
and so, osgIntrospection accept the conversion. Then it try
to use this pointer
to call the "setName" function. And Bing SEGFAULT.
2)
In "bool Reflection::accum_conv_path( ... )"
the convection path isn't accumulate in the recursive loop.
this cause multi request of a conversion path, and a
slowdown in the
conversion algorithm.
3)
Use of the last conversion way in a conversion from
pointer to pointer
this mean you can do this :
"osg::Node*" to " value string representation" to "osg::Material*"
What a bad thing !!!
Solution :
1)
Introduce the concept of dynamic_cast and static_cast.
now, to do a conversion, osgIntrospection does this :
- to found a "osgIntrospection::Converter" to convert
from "osg::Group*" to "osg::Node*"
- to found a chain of "osgIntrospection::Converter" to convert
from "osg::Group*" to "one or many type" to "osg::Node*"
only with static_cast, downcast (Type to SuperType)
- to found, if the source and the destination are two pointer,
a chain of "osgIntrospection::Converter" to convert
from "osg::Group*" to "one or many type" to "osg::Node*"
only with dynamic_cast, upcast (SuperType to Type)
- to convert an Enum to int or to unsigned int
- to convert the value in its "value string representation",
then convert this string in the destination value
Else it throw a "TypeConversionException".
Add the "enum CastType" to distinguish the static_cast or
dynamic_cast converter.
Add file OpenSceneGraph/include/osgIntrospection/CastType
2)
add a line to accumulate converter in converter Path.
3)
add a line to check if source and destination are pointer.

For details on how to patch VisualStudio6.0 see the above website link.
Note, osgIntrospection, src/osgWrapper plugins and the
osgintrospection example cannot be compiled under VisualStudio plugin.
You will also need to run the fixup-vc6-dsps.pl script to clean up the
project files that won't otherwise compile to do new elements required
for support of Window 64 bit build under VS 7.x and 8.x.
Several of the plugins and examples require external dependancies. Full details on where to obtain
these can be found in doc/dependancies.html.
--
For syntax highlighting in VisualStudio which the standard C++ style headers
found in the OSG :
VisualStudio6.0
Substiture the LANDEXT.DAT file found in this directory with the one found
*\Common\MSDev98\Bin
VisualStudio7.x & 8.x/.NET
Install the syntaxhighlight.reg (just double click it). This will update
Extensionless file for Visual Studio. Don't worry, it will keep the
current extensionless files (STL ones) intact.
--
How to use the Visual Studio projects:
To build the OpenSceneGraph code in Visual Studio, you normally must use the VisualStudio.sln solution file provided. The individual projects won't build as-is, because they depend on each other and only the VisualStudio.sln file provides those dependencies.
To create a program based on an example, probably the easiest way is to do this:
1. Copy the VisualStudio.sln project to a new file in the same directory
2. Copy the project you want to base your new project on to a new directory in the same level of the directory tree
3. Open the new .sln file you copied in step 1
4. Remove unneeded projects from it, but keep the core libraries (osg, osgDB, etc.). Shift-clicking to select a bunch of projects at once makes this easier to do
5. Add the new project to that solution
6. Set the dependencies for your new project. This is most easily done by opening the Solution Properties dialog, going to Project Dependencies, and checking off the libraries your project depends on
--
Building 64 bit binaries
64 bit OpenSceneGraph and OpenThreads binaries can be built in Visual Studio 8, but several extra steps are required due to limits of the Visual Studio 6 project files:
1. For each of the OpenSceneGraph, and OpenThreads .dsw files, :
a. Open the .dsw or .sln file and convert all projects to VS 8 format.
b. Open the Configuration Manager window under the Build menu, bring up the New Solution Platform window by selecting <New...> in the Active solution platform drop-down menu. Select x64 as the new platform and copy settings from Win32 (you need to have the x64 compiler installed to see the x64 platform option). Ensure the Create new project platforms checkbox is selected. Click OK, then close the Configuration Manager window.
c. Do a "Save All" to save the project files.
2. Visual Studio unfortunately chooses its own Output Directory setting for the x64 configurations in step 1.b., and this must be reset to the Win32 setting.
IF PERL _IS_ INSTALLED (native or Cygwin), do the following:
a. Close all Visual Studio solutions.
b. Open a command shell and cd to the OpenSceneGraph/VisualStudio directory.
c. Run the command "perl reset-64bit-outdirs.pl".
d. Reopen the solutions.
IF PERL _IS NOT_ INSTALLED, do the following to accomplish the same thing manually:
a. In the OpenThreads solution, open the properties window for the OpenThreads project.
i. Select multiple configurations, Debug and Release. Under the General page, overwrite the Output Directory path of the x64 platform with the corresponding Win32 path. For static builds, do the same thing for the Debug Static and Release Static configurations.
b. In the OpenSceneGraph solution:
i. Select all the "Application" and "Example" projects in the Solution Explorer window and repeat step 2.a.i. Note there are no static configurations.
ii. Select all the "Core" projects _except "Core osgIntrospection"_ and repeat step 2.a.i.
iii. Select "Core osgIntrospection" and repeat step 2.a.i. Note there are no static configurations.
iv. Select all the "osgPlugin" projects and repeat step 2.a.i.
v. Select all the "osgWrapper" projects and repeat step 2.a.i. Note there are no static configurations.
c. Do a "Save All" to save the project files.
3. Select the desired x64 configuration, and build away!
This is the readme for the entire OpenThreads/OpenSceneGraph distribution for the OS X frameworks and Xcode projects. This readme was originally written for the binary distribution, but there is a lot of useful information in here so it has also been included with the source code in the Xcode section. This was sync'd with the OSG 1.2 release.\
This is the readme for the entire OpenThreads/OpenSceneGraph distribution for the OS X frameworks and Xcode projects. This readme was originally written for the binary distribution, but there is a lot of useful information in here so it has also been included with the source code in the Xcode section. This was sync'd with the OSG 2.2 release.\
\
The source code is available at {\field{\*\fldinst{HYPERLINK "http://www.openscenegraph.org/"}}{\fldrslt http://www.openscenegraph.org/}}\
\
Also included is a framework for GDAL. You can get the source code and the full GDAL package at {\field{\*\fldinst{HYPERLINK "http://www.gdal.org/"}}{\fldrslt http://www.gdal.org/}}\
\b \
Quick Start:
\b0 \
Screencasts of how to install and get going with OSG for Mac OS X can be found here:\
\b0 \cf0 (See {\field{\*\fldinst{HYPERLINK "http://www.openscenegraph.org/projects/osg/wiki/Support/PlatformSpecifics/MacOSX10.5"}}{\fldrslt http://www.openscenegraph.org/projects/osg/wiki/Support/PlatformSpecifics/MacOSX10.5}} for up-to-date information.)\
\
\b Broken Binary Compatibility:
\b0 \
Apple has broken binary compatibility in a limited way between 10.4 and 10.5 when using OpenGL and C++. Under 32-bit, the GLenum type was changed from long (in 10.4 and before) to int (in 10.5).\
\
Under 32-bit, sizeof(long) == sizeof(int) == 4-bytes.\
(In 64-bit, sizeof(long) == 8-bytes, sizeof(int) == 4-bytes)\
So in C 32-bit, binary compatibility is preserved.\
\
But under C++, even though both types are 4-bytes under 32-bits, C++ name mangling rules treat int and long as fundamentally different types. Thus binary compatibility is broken if you try linking two pieces of code that use different types for GLenum.\
\
\
This means:\
1) If you have a 10.4 SDK (or before) built OSG framework, you cannot build an application using the 10.5 SDK or you will get strange undefined symbol errors if GLenum is used. This means don't develop against the 10.5 SDK on Leopard.\
\
2) You cannot use a 10.5 SDK built OSG framework to build an application using the 10.4 SDK, otherwise this will also give you undefined symbol errors. This means don't develop with 10.5 built OSG frameworks when using the 10.4u SDK on Leopard or developing on 10.4 itself.\
\
3) If you have a 10.4 SDK built OSG framework and a 10.4 SDK built application that uses it, this does *not* present a binary compatibility problem and you may be able to run on 10.5 (ignoring any different compatibility issues).\
\
4) Similarly to #3, if you have a 10.5 SDK built framework and a 10.5 SDK built application that uses it, this does *not* present a binary compatibility problem and you may be able to run on 10.4 presuming there are no specific 10.5 dependencies. (But it is safer to build against the 10.4 SDK if you plan on deploying to 10.4 and use no 10.5 specific features.)\

Basically, this means you can't intermix 10.4 and 10.5 frameworks.\
\
You can slip around this problem if you manage to avoid the use of any code that uses GLenum. And pure C is not affected.\
\
\b \
OSG 10.4 and 10.5 SDKs:\
\b0 Xcode 3.0 introduces formal support for SDKs created by 3rd parties (like us). Since we now have binary incompatible frameworks, developing binaries for both 10.4 and 10.5 on the same system is a pain. Having a separate OSG 10.4 and 10.5 SDK may help minimize that pain.\
\
Stay tuned for the SDKs and instructions.\
\

\f0\b What's New in this release:
\f1\b0 \
\b X11 Link problems:\
\b0 Another common problem developers might experience is:\
Some people have reported a problem similar to this and/or used the solution posted in this Q&A to resolve a problem building the osgdb_freetype plugin. However, I believe this is the wrong solution to this specific problem. In the osgdb_freetype case, the problem was one of two things:\
1) The wrong libfreetype.dylib was being used (wrong SDK)\
2) The libfreetype.dylib was not found (wrong path)\
\
For #1, the Xcode project was linking to /usr/X11R6/lib, but we should have been linking to $(SDKROOT)/usr/X11R6/lib. You would normally experience this problem when compiling against the 10.4u SDK on 10.5.\
\
For #2, the problem was usually experienced by people building against the 10.5 SDK (on 10.5). The problem here is that Leopard has moved from XFree86.org to X.org and the path is now /usr/X11/lib instead of X11R6. Within the SDK, there is no X11R6 path, so the library was not found.\
\
The solution is quite simple and change the link path line to:\
-L$(SDKROOT)/usr/X11/lib -L$(SDKROOT)/usr/X11R6/lib in the Other Linker Flags for the osgdb_freetype plugin.\
\
This is now fixed in the Xcode project in Subversion.\
\
\
\
\b CMake:\
\b0 The CMake/OSG build system is still not quite ready for prime time. CMake has some general Leopard issues and the OS X/CMake community is trying to work through SDK support issues as the SDKs have become a more prominent part of building on OS X correctly. Framework support is still lacking in the CMake/OSG build system, though CMake CVS is gradually adding/fixing this feature to its code base. \
\
\
\b 64-bit:\
\b0 OSG for OS X 64-bit is not ready. There are two major obstacles:\
1) osgViewer\
2) osgdb_qt\
\
The osgViewer backend is written in Carbon and as far as I know, uses some deprecated APIs that are not available in 64-bit. I do not know if this can be easily cleaned up or not. However, I still believe the better long term solution is for a Cocoa based osgViewer backend to be written. However, nothing yet has been written for this as far as I know.\
\
The example, osgviewerCocoa is close to if not already 64-bit clean. However, because the example uses osgViewer::GraphicsWindowEmbedded which needlessly pulls in all the osgViewer Carbon backend dependencies, you will be unable to actually build osgviewerCocoa as 64-bit. But if you are in a hurry to get 64-bit on OS X, this might be where you want to start. Either strip away the Carbon dependencies from osgViewer, or take osgviewerCocoa and transform it into a Cocoa backend for osgViewer.\
\
\
osgdb_qt is a QuickTime based plugin that handles all image handling and movie handling on OS X. However, it is based on the old QuickTime API which has been marked deprecated and will not survive the 64-bit transition. Thus this plugin needs to be replaced.\
\
I have already submitted a new plugin called osgdb_ImageIO to osgSubmissions which attempts to assume all the image handling duties. This plugin is based on Apple's ImageIO framework which is the new low-level entry point to deal with all image types handled by the platform. Thus this plugin should handle a lot more image formats than the old QuickTime plugin (e.g. JPEG2000, RAW, etc) and will get more as Apple adds support their system. It also adds support for C++ stream support which was missing from the QuickTime plugin. ImageIO is available on 10.4 and 10.5.\
\
However, the osgdb_ImageIO plugin does not handle movies unlike the old QuickTime plugin. The current plan is to introduce a second plugin (osgdb_QTKit), which is based on the new QuickTime Kit framework (10.4 and 10.5). This plugin will replace the movie handling capabilities of the old QuickTime plugin. \
\
Once both new plugins are in place and osgViewer is sorted out, we should be able to build a 32-bit/64-bit Universal Binary of OSG for OS X.\
\
Mac OS X 10.3 and earlier users and QuickTime for Windows users will still need to use the old QuickTime plugin.\
\b0 \cf0 {\listtext \'95 }OpenThreads now uses Subversion 'externals' to make it look like part of the OSG source distribution.\
{\listtext \'95 }Producer has been removed from the distribution. osgViewer is supposed to replace it. The Mac OS X backend is currently Carbon based.\
{\listtext \'95 }GDAL has been removed as it is no longer a dependency.\
{\listtext \'95 }osgviewerCocoa (previously osgsimpleviewerCocoa in CVS) is an example program demonstrating tight integration between OpenSceneGraph and Cocoa. It demonstrates many of the things you should consider in building a first-class OS X application that uses OSG.\
\cf0 OSG has changed its versioning number scheme. 2.0 is the stable release following 1.2.\
\
Producer has been removed from the distribution with osgViewer as its intended replacement.\
\
GDAL has also been removed from the distribution as it is no longer a dependency.\
\
OSG is in the process to moving to a new CMake based build system. Once the remaining Mac OS X support needed is implemented in CMake, the Xcode projects will be removed in favor of the new unified CMake system.\
\
With Leopard on the horizon, the need to deal with 64-bit readiness and deprecated APIs is becoming more critical. In a nutshell, we need a Cocoa based version of osgViewer, and the QuickTime plugin needs to be replaced. Currently, there is a new ImageIO based plugin to assume the image reading/writing duties of the old qt plugin. We are in need of a QTKit based plugin to assume the movie responsibilities of the old plugin. And we are in need of volunteers to write the Cocoa osgViewer backend. Currently, the example osgviewerCocoa demonstrates a lot of similar functionality and could be used as a reference. However, the example needs to be turned 'inside-out'. The example is an NSView class that contains OSG classes; the osgViewer needs to be the opposite where the OSG class needs to contain the NSView class.\
\f1\b0 \cf0 1.2 was originally intended as a bug fix release for 1.1 (going for 1.1.1), but OSG broke ABI again so the number was bumped to 1.2. There are no significant changes to the Xcode projects or significant OS X specific changes.\

\
Since the 1.1 release, we have learned of serious problems (freezing of the window manager) on the (Intel) MacBook Pros using osgText. We believe the problem is with a serious driver bug for ATI in OS X 10.4.7. We believe the bug affects the ATI Radeon X1600. (You can get this string by calling glGetString(GL_RENDERER) when you have a valid OpenGL Context. The string returned to us on affected MacBook Pros is "ATI Radeon X1600 OpenGL Engine".)\
\f2\i \cf0 osgText subloads small glyphs one by one rather than the whole image, so I'd suspect it is this that is broken. There is a path way in osgText::Font for uploading the whole image at once, which original was specifically implement as a work around for an Octane driver bug, but for 1.1 I enabled this pathway to be selectable via an env var to see if OSX users could work around the OSX driver bug.

These projects were primarily developed with gcc 4.0.1 under Tiger 10.4.3 using Xcode 2.2. Starting with gcc 4.0, Apple no longer statically links in the C++ runtime. Apple has made available the g++ 4.0 dynamic runtime for Panther under the 10.3.9 release. To run under Panther, your system must have this update (or you must recompile the binaries for your system).\

With gcc 4.0, serious bugs have been fixed from gcc 3.3 and new features are available to us so we have experimented with more aggressive optimizations. For these binaries we have enabled -O3 optimization and -mtune=G5. We have also enabled autovectorization. We also enabled -fvisibility-inlines-hidden which is expected to shrink the binary sizes, but noticed very little difference. (There may be something wrong.) We have not done the proper benchmarking with these options, so feedback is welcome.\

There is one known serious bug that appears sometimes. With Xcode 2.0 and 2.1, in some cases when you build OpenThreads/OSG from scratch, when you run the examples, they will crash on load. The workaround seems to be to delete just the OpenThreads framework after everything is built. Then rebuild just the OpenThreads framework. Bug reports have been filed with Apple, but the root cause remains to be a mystery. (We have some guesses, but nothing substantial.) I have not yet seen this issue emerge with Xcode 2.2, so maybe the problem is fixed.\
\
The osgdb_geo plugin is not big endian safe. The Makefile system does not build it for OS X. We have added it for the Xcode projects, but you probably shouldn't use it unless you're on Intel.\
\
Do not use the
\f4\fs22 -fvisibility=hidden
\f1\fs24 flag unless you know what you're doing. In some cases, Xcode 2.2 seems to enable this by default in the project settings. You should verify your project settings and make sure this is disabled. Among other things, this flag will hide RTTI information causing dynamic_cast<> operations to fail. Since parts of OSG are dependent on RTTI, this option should remain off. The flag
\f4\fs22 -fvisibility-inlines-hidden
\f1\fs24 may be safe to use. (This is actually enabled in our Xcode projects. If there are problems, please let us know.)\

Finally, there may still be issues with Zerolink. In the Project Template, we defer to the default for this option and in current Xcode versions, the default is on. The OSG Xcode projects themselves have explicitly disabled Zerolink. In the worst cases, scenes will not render correctly or the application may crash. The worst thing about this is that the problems are so strange, you may not realize Zerolink is the problem. To see this for yourself (we tried in Xcode 2.2), you might try comparing the osgdelaunay example with and without Zerolink, toggling through all values of 'n'. With Zerolink certain objects do not even appear and it crashes. So you are probably should disable this to be safe. However, for the daring, Zerolink does seem to work for some projects though we do not fully understand the criteria for this. Furthermore, Apple constantly works on improving this feature so maybe one day it will all just work right.\
