Hi Rudi,
As a quick note, a Viewer::makeCurrent() is inappropriate as
makeCurrent is only associated with a graphics context, rather than a
viewer. A viewer can have multiple graphics context as well - and
OpenGL only supports on thread per context so trying to do makeCurrent
on all contexts will just lead to the last one having any affect.
The hint itself should be also about whether the lazy makeCurrent() is
used - i.e. whether the app can assume that it still has its context
current on each subsequent frame.
Finally if you plan to submit code for inclusion with the OSG itself
you should post the changes through to osg-submissions so they can get
reviewed and not lost in the sea of osg-users posts.
Robert.
