[Anyone - Please correct me if my terminology or understanding is incorrect]

My limited experience with Real-time programming has been with RTLinux/RTCore. If I understand correctly, the way to write a real-time task with RTCore, is that it is written as a kernel module. You have a small main() which initializes a pthread where you task work is done. If I do need my rendering to be done in a real time task, is this something that can be done with OSG? Is that how it's done under RedHawk? Sorry this is so off topic.... Is there an example which shows how to have a separate thread, from the main app thread, which does all the OSG stuff?

Hi Ed,

Ive used OSG on RedHawk. In fact, many trips around the sun ago, I used to be a systems engineer for Concurrent Computer. IITSEC of 2003 I put my hang-glider simulator in Concurrent's booth and drove a cluster, using the ccur running RedHawk as the master channel. The role of graphics does not really call for hard-real time, but some of the other activities associated with the simulator did, including the frame scheduler and synchronization of the slave channels with the master.

The real-time extensions that CCUR brings to the Linux kernel are the same ones they've been using since SVR5mp in the early nineties, and conform to Posix 1003.b and 1003.c real-time standards. The extensions allow for a fully preemptable kernel with resource allocation and very good thread priority support.
My experience was quite positive with Red Hawk.

    I am working on a project which has as its end goal a hard real-time

    bad, with OSG on RTLinux or RedHawk?  Anyone out that using OSG in
    hard real-time?
