Hi Zach,
Did osg use the design patterns listed in this book?:
[Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software]
and this wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_Patterns
See
http://www.openscenegraph.com/osgwiki/pmwiki.php/ProgrammingGuides/DesignPatterns
Though it is out of date, as there are more patterns used now and many
classes that are built using design patterns are not listed there. But
that should give you an idea. Seeing as how Visitor is one of the
patterns in that book, and we all know that we use visitors in OSG all
the time, that should have given you the answer to your question! :-)
One of the things that impressed me early on about OSG was how clean
and predictable its software design was, which is one of the goals of
design patterns. They are sort of a "language" that software engineers
can use to convey ideas quickly. You see a factory, or a composite, or
a visitor, and you immediately know what it does and how it works.
