From Till:
i started the project at the end of february with a simple idea: move all
3d-model loading to the DatabasePager-thread. my first attempts looked
promising, though they were a little too optimistic (or naive?). the patch
has evolved a lot since.
currently it does the following things:
1. revive SGModelLib, move functions for xml-model-loading there
2. replace all calls to sgLoad3dModel with calls to either
SGModelLib::loadModel() or SGModelLib::loadPagedModel()
almost all models will be loaded by the DatabasePager. the few exceptions are:
your own plane, shared models in scenery, random objects, AIBallistic models.
3. simplify mode-loading functions (avoid passing around fg_root)
4. avoid supurious MatrixTransform nodes in loaded models
5. fix some memory leaks
Reindent to Stroustrup style.
Make FGPrecipitationMgr an SGSubsystem and remove all references to it
in main.cxx and renderer.cxx.
Use SGGeod::makeZUpFrame instead of a private function in
tileentry.cxx. Rewrite that function, WorldCoordinate, to use
makeZUpFrame too.
This also fixes distortion weirdness in the osgviewer version. That
was caused by osg::GraphicsContext getting in the act on resize events
and adding its own scaling to the projectionOffset of slave cameras!
The LOD far range on the tile entry scenegraph node was initialized to
0. This meant that any traverals of active children that happened
before the tile manager updated the node would ignore the node
altogether. Among these is the groundcache traversal which was failing
at startup even though scenery was loaded.
Also added a function to dump scene graph nodes to files; very handy
in gdb.
This uses the osgViewer infrastructure instead of setting up and osg::SceneView.
When the same change is made for glut, much of render.cxx can be deleted.
file. Possible uses of this functionality could include converting the
model to some other format or coordinate system for use in some other
visualization or simulation.
Turn OPENSCENEGRAPH_MAJOR_VERSION, OPENSCENEGRAPH_MINOR_VERSION and
OPENSCENEGRAPH_PATCH_VERSION into a single number for comparisons in the
preprocessor.

src/Main/renderer.cxx src/Main/renderer.hxx: Tim Moore:
These patches implement a command to dump the entire OSG scene graph as
a .osg text file. While large, this allows debuggers to really see
what's happening in the scene graph.

There is most of the required data defined. Also we can better use
the pick visitor that will be needed with th upcommung panel code.
