[osg-users] Reading OSG images from streams?

2011-03-01 Thread Eric Sokolowsky
I was perusing the source code and was surprised to see that in
osgDB/ReaderWriter there are stub functions for reading images from streams
but that they are all disabled, returning
ReadResult(ReadResult::NOT_IMPLEMENTED). Is it the case that nobody has
needed this functionality yet, or are there other technical reasons for
this? I am interested in reading image streams over the network using
sockets, and to do that I'll probably create a class that will derive from
std::streambuf to read information over sockets. Is anyone else doing this
sort of thing?

Hi Eric,

The functions are virtual, so it is up to each loader to override it and
implement the functionality. Most of the image loaders should support
reading from streams. I have been using this feature for a long time now and
it works really well.

Cheers,
Farshid
