Re: [osg-users] Odd debug statement in Program.cpp
Hi Doug,
I'm not the author of this code so can't comment on it's original
motivation, but mostly like it was about the copy constructor not
being completely filled out/questions over management of OpenGL
objects during copy.
What I can say is that in svn/trunk and 2.9.x the copy constructor has
been completed and the message removed as the copy constructor should
now be valid.

Yeah, I made a mistake on that too, so forget this. I was sure to remember that the camera gets moved by the transform node.

[osg-users] [forum] All Forum Users, PLEASE READ IT!
Hello dear forum users, in order to establish a nice etiquette in our community, we have decided to suspend user accounts which do not correspond to forum's rules. The main reason is that a lot of forum users don't have valid real names specified. The problem in that is, that your posts are also visible by the mailing list members and that more or less blind kind of conversation isn't appropriate for our community. Please take a look into this thread, written by Robert Osfield: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?t=2498 to see what I mean!!! So, user accounts who's real names are either not full (by full we understand First and Last name) or are of some cryptic nature (e.g. XMen, 3D Master, etc) will be put into moderation queue by me in the next hours. Messages posted by moderated/suspended accounts are not visible and also not forwarded to the mailing list, until they get approved by moderatos. Hence you still able to post, however until you do not correct your profile to match the forum rules (http://forum.openscenegraph.org/rules.php) your messages will not be visible by other members of our community. Hence if you like to join us, you are asked to follow the netiquette established in many years of mailing list era. So again: - you have to specify a valid real name in your profile. Valid real name is of type First Last name, for example John McCourkey, Alice Smith, etc... - Names with more than 2 words are allowed, e.g. Hans Peter Maier. - If it is not appropriate to have such names in your culture or you want to preserve some kind of anonymity, then please use a pseudonym (which match the both previous points!!!), however use it persistently in all your communications within our community. - you can disable Always show my realname in your profile settings, then your name wouldn't be visible on the forum and will also not be indexed by Google etc when indexing the forum page! However it will still be used in mails sent to the mailing list, so this is the same level of anonymity as if you have used mailing list only Thank you and sorry for such circumstances Art P.S. Users who recieve an email with subject Your account on OpenSceneGraph Forum is now moderated/suspended are landed on the moderation queue.

It's actually a topic that has been discussed over the years w.r.t split the osg-users list into beginner and advanced/scene graph developers, but I've always resisted this as I'd like to see us all as user/developers. I personally don't have time and intellectual capacity to be on several lists, so if one does split things I'd have to go where my time is most critical and drop other parts. While I and other advanced users have time and energy to help out with newbies it's good for us to dive in and answer questions. I believe it's a important part of middle-ware development - you have to listen to all the problems that all users come across to understand how the software needs to be tweaked/evolve. For instance osgViewer exists in the form it does largely to address problems lots of end users including newbies had. On the emoticon front, I'll go and search for which email highlighted this issue. I think this are the points, we have pointed out in order to improve the etiquette in our community. All other aspects are more social like and can not be solved in a programmer way, I think. We can write up text on good etiquette, but I do wonder if more text based documentation isn't the answer. Perhaps we need to record videos/provide more pictures on line for various people in the community so that new users can get in touch with the human side of the project in a way that is easy to review and more enticing than just another page of text. For instance explaining why different aspects of etiquette makes things run more smoothly would probably come across better in person rather than a text based list of rules. I'm kinda setting myself up to make such a contribution I've never tried doing audio or video podcasts, but perhaps it's time I did start thinking about it. Does anyone have suggestions of good linux based software that I could use for the task? As well as technical stuff there is also the human skills of presenting information in a compelling way, being a computer geek this really isn't my strong point. So suggestions on sites that give tips on this would be useful too.

Re: [osg-users] [build] SDL no longer builds
Hi Francois,
I've just cleaned up the present3D optional build with SDL so it's
similar to that of osgviewerSDL, as well as some other clean ups. You
may need to remove you OpenSceneGraph/CMakeCache.txt and then re-run
./configure. By default the SDL support should be off but you'll be
able to enable it via ccmake ., and then enabling the
BUILD_PRESENT3D_WITH_SDL option.
BTW, I live and work in Callander down in the Trossachs, and am
working on a project with Aberdeen University on medical visualization
and teaching. So once every few months I get to stick my head up
around your neck of the woods.

IF (BUILD_WITH_SDL)

It'll be in the new version of our VESS library (http://www.irl.ucf.edu/software/vess). Excellent, so it'll be open sourced :-) About 10,000 or so, just for the COLLADA elements. A lot of it relies on existing VESS classes too, so that number is probably a bit low, although a lot of the code is basic DOM-like functionality that just parses XML into various objects and structures. That's a pretty big chunk. What features did you extract from the files? Geometry? State? Geometry, materials, textures, skin controllers, node hierarchy (including skeletons) and (certain) animations. It only supports the COMMON profile for the COLLADA FX elements (no shaders at the moment). Support for external references is also missing. What was the motivation for writing this code? You mention the the COLLADA DOM didn't look easer to use than rolling your own. I presume that the OSG's plugin didn't expose enough data that you need in your application. Are you building the OSG scene graph for your collada representation? I ask these questions as I'd expect many others will be in a similar position. If there might be a way to solve several problems at one time then it'll be a much more compelling task to rewrite our plugin, rather than just trying to fix the compile issues. Perhaps it might be possible to take your VESS collada code as a base and create an OSG + VESS compatible library that both projects could use. Robert.

Even me, if I read the post by looking on the pictures, can not understand what really this emoticon is good in this context for. I think, I could correct it to use the :-) symbols instead of bbcode, i.e. shocked will then be :O instead of [Shocked] . Ok, I'll take a look into it. :O would much more appropriate than the written [Shocked], as it's meaning is far less unambiguous than the actual text. Ooch too many double negatives... What I'm trying to say is the graphical and :O representations are a bit ambiguous so people won't read too much in to it as it could be read in several different ways so human nature would typically to give author the benefit of doubt. Whereas text [Shocked] is very specific in what it means, there really isn't any doubt about what it means. Given the selection of emoticon is done graphically where the actual text meaning is not conveyed one can easily select an emiticon that might be wholly appropriate or with the intended meaning, we'd want to maintain that level of ambiguity into the final form in an email or forum post.

Re: [osg-users] osgOcean release
Hi Sergey, Yes, this is intentional. It came to my attention that the FFTW library is covered by a GPL license and therefore the library must also share the status. However, I am working on replacing the FFTW library with an LGPL alternative so that I can change it back to LGPL, but until then I will have to keep the GPL license. I'll update when I've swapped the library. Apologies.

Re: [osg-users] OpenThreads mutex recursion
Original pthread implementations didn't support recursion so OpenThreads was built around this. These days would could probably safely enable it and deprecate the ReentrantMutex which won't be as efficient as using pthreads. Either that or make the Reentrant Mutex enable the support rather than have its own solution. The one issue I found with doing it that way is in the pthread docs: APPLICATION USAGE It is advised that an application should not use a PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE mutex with condition variables because the implicit unlock performed for a pthread_cond_wait() or pthread_cond_timedwait() may not actually release the mutex (if it had been locked multiple times). If this happens, no other thread can satisfy the condition of the predicate. Is that the same with a critical section? If not, is there a way to force a complete unlock on a recursive pthread mutex?

[osg-users] osgOcean release
Hi Kim actually it is possible to mix GPL and LGPL ( see example ffmpeg - they even have two licenses in one file -'C code is LGPL and mmx code is GPL ) without any violation of GPL and LGPL wordings. But OK I see the point. As with FFTW it is not possible ( so far ) use your library. Still later it is possible to keep your library with LGPL and still use fftw for those who will use your library in free GPL projects.

Your own source code is yours to license how you like, it's the final composite work that would have to licensed as the GPL. For instances your headers and source could be LGPL, but when you link your application against the GPL library then resulting osgOcean library would need to be under the GPL. If FFTW was replaced by another library that was LGPL then the resulting library would be LGPL, if this library was binary binary compatible then you could actually swap the two implementations without changing anything in your code, and with it the license rules would change with it. If you make your own source code GPL, even temporarily then this isn't possible.

Your own source code is yours to license how you like, it's the final composite work that would have to licensed as the GPL. For instances your headers and source could be LGPL, but when you link your application against the GPL library then resulting osgOcean library would need to be under the GPL. If FFTW was replaced by another library that was LGPL then the resulting library would be LGPL, if this library was binary binary compatible then you could actually swap the two implementations without changing anything in your code, and with it the license rules would change with it.

Does this apply to the mailing list or just the forum? I would like to object to this if it applies to the mailing list. I don't specify my full name for a very good reason. The type of work I am doing is proprietary/sensitive and don't want any questions I ask, even though I try to ask generic enough questions, to reveal what I am doing, or how I am doing it, and it be traceable to the company and my customer. It would not be a good thing for anyone on my side. If someone wants to try to track me down through my email, well, I can only do so much, with out considerable more effort, but I do what I can. Ed (or maybe, Matthew, Mark, Luke, Thomas, John, Freddy, or) Quoting Art Tevs arti_t...@yahoo.de: Hello dear forum users, in order to establish a nice etiquette in our community, we have decided to suspend user accounts which do not correspond to forum's rules. The main reason is that a lot of forum users don't have valid real names specified. The problem in that is, that your posts are also visible by the mailing list members and that more or less blind kind of conversation isn't appropriate for our community. Please take a look into this thread, written by Robert Osfield: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?t=2498 to see what I mean!!! So, user accounts who's real names are either not full (by full we understand First and Last name) or are of some cryptic nature (e.g. XMen, 3D Master, etc) will be put into moderation queue by me in the next hours. Messages posted by moderated/suspended accounts are not visible and also not forwarded to the mailing list, until they get approved by moderatos. Hence you still able to post, however until you do not correct your profile to match the forum rules (http://forum.openscenegraph.org/rules.php) your messages will not be visible by other members of our community. Hence if you like to join us, you are asked to follow the netiquette established in many years of mailing list era. So again: - you have to specify a valid real name in your profile. Valid real name is of type First Last name, for example John McCourkey, Alice Smith, etc... - Names with more than 2 words are allowed, e.g. Hans Peter Maier. - If it is not appropriate to have such names in your culture or you want to preserve some kind of anonymity, then please use a pseudonym (which match the both previous points!!!), however use it persistently in all your communications within our community. - you can disable Always show my realname in your profile settings, then your name wouldn't be visible on the forum and will also not be indexed by Google etc when indexing the forum page! However it will still be used in mails sent to the mailing list, so this is the same level of anonymity as if you have used mailing list only Thank you and sorry for such circumstances Art P.S.

Otherwise forum users are discriminated and we wouldn't like to discriminate users just because they are using a forum instead of mailing list.

Hi ?? The key is that you adopt a consistent online personal that others can relate it. Not adopting some form of human name is crap for everybody else who interacts with you. At personal level I find it obnoxious that people are not always honest about who they are, but that's me. I do realize that some may wish to remain anonymous and sometimes there might even be actual valid reasons for it, it doesn't make like this type of deceit, but it does mean that I have to accept end users choice to remain anonymous. While accepting anonymity doesn't mean a free pass to come up with any combination of random key combinations for an online identity. Remember you are trying to communicate with real human beings, if you want them to help you then you have to make the effort to communicate in a form that is something that others can relate to. If you want free support then this is the hurdle you need to jump for mailing lists users and forum users - it really isn't much of hurdle, if you want anonymity then all you need to do is come up with an name for your alter ego and stick with this.

I can certainly understand the reason for remaining anonymous if you work on sensitive information. However, by just admitting that you work on sensitive information, you have probably revealed more than you should have...;^). It certainly piques a lot more interest from other observers who are in the business of intel gathering than what a real first/last name would do... Like others have pointed out, you can just use a first and last name alias that will satisfy the requirements that are being requested along with a generic email address like gmail or hotmail. This is certainly more effective than using a short abbreviated common first name.

Re: [osg-users] osgOcean release
Hi Robert, You need to download the resource pack from the downloads sections and drop the textures into the resource directory before you hit install. I seperated them as I didn't want them to get versioned. But everyone seems to be tripping up on that one so perhaps I should include them by default. I get the same 'invalid operation' error on an nVidia, I just haven't located the source yet :) still working on it. It's possible the choppy frame rate is caused by the update callback when it updates the primitives and vertices on a resolution change. If you turn on stats you can see the update callback pinging up when theres a change. I hadn't thought about this actually, on my machine it's barely noticeable.

Re: [osg-users] Thoughts on a non Collada DOM based Collada plugin
Hi, Robert, Robert Osfield wrote: About 10,000 or so, just for the COLLADA elements. A lot of it relies on existing VESS classes too, so that number is probably a bit low, although a lot of the code is basic DOM-like functionality that just parses XML into various objects and structures. That's a pretty big chunk. Yeah, I suppose it is, it seems less now that it's done, but I guess I was busy for a while with it. What was the motivation for writing this code? You mention the the COLLADA DOM didn't look easer to use than rolling your own. I presume that the OSG's plugin didn't expose enough data that you need in your application. Right. In general, we needed an art path between 3ds MAX and VESS, and specifically, we needed it for animated characters. We had an existing Cal3D-based solution, but it was getting harder and harder to maintain. osgAnimation had been talked about then, but it hadn't really gone anywhere yet, and we already had some of the needed data structures in place from the Cal3D work. Are you building the OSG scene graph for your collada representation? In a way :-)COLLADA kind of has two phases, the creation of library objects, and then the instantiations of those objects into the visual scene. The VESS COLLADA loader first parses the XML library objects into the corresponding classes, and then these are instantiated into VESS nodes and attributes. A big part of VESS is the scene graph abstraction layer (which proved quite useful to us when Performer died). VESS nodes and attributes are implemented (in this version) using the appropriate OSG objects. So, I'm not constructing an OSG scene graph explicitly, but there is one being constructed. I ask these questions as I'd expect many others will be in a similar position. If there might be a way to solve several problems at one time then it'll be a much more compelling task to rewrite our plugin, rather than just trying to fix the compile issues. Perhaps it might be possible to take your VESS collada code as a base and create an OSG + VESS compatible library that both projects could use. Well, I don't think there will be a problem with contributing the code. I'm a bit skeptical as to how useful it will be, as a lot of it is pretty specific to the way VESS works. I suppose it may be better than starting completely from scratch, though, and it's commented pretty thoroughly, so it should be understandable. I can't promise I'll have time to work on it myself, but I'll try, and I can certainly answer any questions that come up. Let me know if you want to move forward with this, and I'll see what we can do. --J ___ osg-users mailing list osg-users@lists.openscenegraph.org http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
[osg-users] Rendering a series of nodes in precise order...
Here's the deal: I'm implementing a stencil buffer trick that looks like this: for each object: render some stuff into the stencil buffer render a bounding box to draw in the places carved out by the stencil, clearing stencil as I go The unusual thing is that it has to happen in exactly that order - I can't, for example, do the stencil pass for all objects, then do the bounding box pass. I can easily write both render steps as geometry with StateSets, i.e. I don't need to develop a custom Drawable to do this stuff. Obviously I could control this with render bin numbers: binNumber = 1 For each object: render stencil in binNumber++ render bounding box in binNumber++ That seems a little awkward though, mostly because it makes the ordering of my other render bins more confusing. Is there a more straightforward way? Thanks, Nathan ___ osg-users mailing list osg-users@lists.openscenegraph.org http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org

While I and other advanced users have time and energy to help out with newbies it's good for us to dive in and answer questions. I believe it's a important part of middle-ware development - you have to listen to all the problems that all users come across to understand how the software needs to be tweaked/evolve. For instance osgViewer exists in the form it does largely to address problems lots of end users including newbies had. I just wanted to add that I think this, adding a beginner section, is inevitable, and I've been expecting it for a while.
