RE: [Flightgear-devel] how to determine when flightgear hasfullyinitialized
From main.cxx:
if ( idle_state == 1000 ) {
// We've finished all our
initialization steps, from now on we
// run the main loop.
fgRegisterIdleHandler(fgMainLoop);
idle_state appears to be declared globally, so you should be able to
test straight for that:
bool checkinit()
{
if (idle_state == 1000)
{return true;}
else
{return false;}
}
Though it would make a lot more sense to add a value to the property
tree in the code snippet above so that you could use fgGetBool() on it.

Hi,
Is there a simple way to test in the code to see if flightgear has
initialized such as a boolean?

Then just add this:
fgsetbool(sim/initialised,true);
at line 1436 of main.cxx so the function reads like this:
if ( idle_state == 1000 ) {
// We've finished all our initialization steps, from now on we
// run the main loop.
fgsetbool(sim/initialised,true);
fgRegisterIdleHandler(fgMainLoop);
} else {
if ( fgGetBool(/sim/startup/splash-screen) ) {
fgSplashUpdate(0.0, 1.0);
}
}
I suppose I ought to have done a diff on this, but it seems so trivial.

Not that I know of, but it would be nice to have one.
That would allow the sound (for example) to be quiet until the
startup
is completed.

That's not all, because it should work for a reset also.
I've put an update in CVS. /sim/initialised should now indicate when
we're ready to go.

idle_state appears to be declared globally, so you should be able to
test straight for that:
That's not sufficient, though. At this point, the FDM initialization
still hasn't occurred; it needs to wait for the tile under the
aircraft to load first, which can still be a few more seconds.
The problem is deep, unfortunately. There just isn't a single boolean
you can check to see if the sim is finished initializing; different
subsystems come up at different times. This is especially true with
some of the Nasal code, which has to set timers to wait until the
initialization is (probably) finished.
