(Disabled by a CMake option)
This builds equivalent C++ objects to what the PUI dialogs build, with
properties exposed to Nasal. Peer objects are created by Nasal callbacks,
which can implement the various dialog functions needed to keep
compatibility, especially the ‘update’ and ‘apply’ hooks.
Implement support for virtual reality headsets via version 0.3 of the
osgXR[1] library I've been working on which uses OpenXR.
Add a new VRManager class based on osgXR::Manager to implement its
callbacks. When osgXR needs a new view created, we build a new camera in
the default camera group, and notify osgXR of each new "scene" typed
render pass. It also hooks into the CameraInfo's new compositor reload
callback to ensure osgXR is updated when the compositors are reloaded.
VR settings are controlled by properties, and new --enable-vr /
--disable-vr options are implemented to enable/disable VR at start.
This is enough to get basic VR for looking around the cockpit, but more
work will be required to support a desktop mirror of VR view, VR splash
screen, VR GUI, controller interaction, and correct positional sound.

* Support the native fdm, gui and ctrl protocols over DDS
* Add fgfdm_log as an fdm over DDS command line logging utility
Usage:
--native-fdm=dds,out,60
--native-ctrls=dds,in,60
etc.
- Removed the ENABLE_COMPOSITOR CMake flag.
- Removed /sim/version/compositor-support.
- Removed miscellaneous branching to check if the Compositor is enabled.
- Removed custom resource loader since Compositor Effects are now located in $FG_ROOT/Effects.
- Removed splash screen warning.
- Only use the Compositor versions of CameraGroup and FGRenderer.
- Fix redout/blackout not appearing under certain circumstances.
Avoid encoding test-data as strings, since this exceeds MSVC limits
on string literals, and tests don’t need to be relocatable anyway,
so we can just hard-code the source location into config.h
This required many time related include files, functions, and variables to be
tested for via CMake, and converted to macros via #cmakedefine, so that they
would be automatically set for the test-mktime.cxx file.
Move all PUI event and rendering into a custom camera, which can be
rendered via an FBO to account for display-resolution scaling (HiDPI).
Start wrapping PUI calls in #ifdefs so PUI can be disabled at compile
time; a run-time switch is trivial now but not implemented yet.
Compile a useful subset of FG as a shared library, and add two basic
uses of this to exercise some Flightplan / RoutePath / navaid
functions.
The test framework can/will be expanded incrementally from here, this
is just a starting point.
Make a single Cmake value to expose the build type to code, and use
this to default a run-time ‘developer-mode’ property, which can be
over-ridden from the command line.
Use this to drive the different warning levels. Policies subject to
review, especially whether nightly builds should default to
developer mode or not.
The old Mac launcher doesn’t work on Yosemite, add a tiny
Qt-based launcher inside the main process (no need to fork /
exec) which runs before the OSG window is created.
Will be merged for 3.4, hopefully with no impact on other
platforms.
- Not compiled by default, nor hooked up to anything yet.
- Both libraries licensed under modified BSD license.
- Added top-level CMake file for both, to create a plain static
library for each.
- no dependency on libJpeg or Simgear
- no duplicate rendering of the scene (uses a draw callback)
- supports other image types, eg PNG
- threaded so doesn't block the main loop ever
Keep distro packagers happy by having the option to use the system's sqlite library instead of our bundled version. Set SYSTEM_SQLITE=1 when running cmake to use the system one.
so package builders don't need local patches.
Also, instead of hardcoded firefox, use "xdg-open" or "sensible-browser"
launchers on Linux, to auto-detect user's preferred browser.
Override with cmake switch -DWEB_BROWSER=...
(Not affecting Mac/Win which are hard-coded anyway).
