Hi J.P.,
with
#define USE_EFFECT SILT
I get the gray screen in added view on 3rd 'a'.
Thanks for testing, that's what I saw too on Ubuntu. I expect if you use
USE_EFFECT PRECIPITATION you'll see the same results.
Hmm, what is strange is that the modified (extremely hacky) version
attached does not crash and seems to work. It just uses a shared
context, so maybe there is something in the context vs vertex array that
is not working properly.
Yes, well one of my hunches was that something in the context
creation/reuse was buggy, since the problem appears because we're
creating, then deleting, then creating contexts. I've traced into the
code of the effect, and the same context ID seems to be reused the
second time the secondary view is created (3rd 'a') as the first time
(1st 'a'). That means that when getting the osg::Drawable::Extensions
object, the same one that was created for the old context is reused for
the new context.
But that apparently isn't the problem, because if I force the Extensions
object to be destroyed when the secondary view is closed (so that the
next time it's spawned, a new Extensions object will be created) like so:
// In doRemoveView(), between the stopThreading() and startThreading()
unsigned int contextID =
_view->getCamera()->getGraphicsContext()->getState()->getContextID();
_viewer->removeView(_view.get());
_view = 0;
osg::Drawable::setExtensions(contextID, 0);
it doesn't remove the crash.
Also, I tried to make the scene delete all its OpenGL objects for all
contexts, like so:
// Again in doRemoveView() before the startThreading()
_root->releaseGLObjects();
and it doesn't fix it either.
So yes, it's probably related to the creation/deletion/reuse of contexts
or context-specific objects, but I haven't been able to pinpoint it yet
to something that's wrong in OSG itself.
If anyone else would like to take up the challenge of explaining this
mystery, please step up :-)
Thanks,
J-S
