I implemented them under Linux with NVidia drivers and they worked as expected, but with other drivers and other OS's reports back from the community haven't been so positive, so it looks like it's a feature that driver developers don't put much effort in to make sure it's solid. > Anyway, I see them used at least for compile contexts.

The DatabasePager will utilize a CompileContext if you've set them up explictly, but if you haven't it won't use them instead compiling the GL objects from a time slot given to it by the various graphics threads with the associated graphics contexts/windows. > My original problem came from question whether all osg::GraphicsContext with > the same contextID supports exactly the same OpenGL/GLU/WGL/GLX extensions. If they don't support all the same features then the contextID should not be the same, but this assumes that the contexts and sharing of contextID have all be set up correctly.
