Features and issues with Performer plugin
=========================================
Issues
------
After compiling the Peformer plugin you can run sgv and it will
pick up the library osgPlugins/osgdb_pfb correctly, so you'll now be
able to type something like :
cd /usr/share/Performer/data
sgv iris.pfb
Unfortunately this then results in the following error message :
DynamicLibrary::failed loading /home/robert/OpenSceneGraph-0.8/lib/osgPlugins/osgdb_pfb.so
DynamicLibrary::error /usr/lib/libpr.so: undefined symbol: __ucmpdi2
An attempt to fixing the undefined symbol by including -lgcc did not fix the
problem, have a look at src/osgPlugins/pfb/Makefile, for the link lines
tested. Suggestions welcome.
This error disappears if you link sgv with Performer, you can do this by
simply swapping the #comment around in src/Viewier/Makefile so that :
LIBS = -losgUtil -losg -lglut -lGLU -lGL -lm -lXmu -lX11 -lXi
#LIBS = ${PFLIBS} -losgUtil -losg -lglut -lGLU -lGL -lm -lXmu -lX11 -lXi
is edited to become:
#LIBS = -losgUtil -losg -lglut -lGLU -lGL -lm -lXmu -lX11 -lXi
LIBS = ${PFLIBS} -losgUtil -losg -lglut -lGLU -lGL -lm -lXmu -lX11 -lXi
Not an ideal solution but it does work. Now try :
cd /usr/share/Performer/data
sgv town_ogl_pfi.pfb
Features
--------
You can also use osgdb_pfb.so as a Performer plugin, by linking/copying the
osgPlugins/osgdb_pfb.so to libpfosg.so. Try something like :
cd OpenSceneGraph-0.8/lib
ln -s osgPlugins/osgdb_pfb.so libpfosg.so
then
perfly turtle.osg
or
pfconv /usr/share/Performer/data/iris.pfb iris.osg
sgv iris.osg
