[osg-users] Qt5 integration

[John Vidar Larring]

Hi James,

While you attention is directed towards integrating Qt5 and OSG, have you
considered the use case for offscreen rendering? In the osg::Viewer module,
there are PixelBufferWin32 and PixelBufferX11 classes that implements the
osg::GraphicsContext abstract class for offscreen pixelbuffer rendering on
respective platforms. Ref.:

http://trac.openscenegraph.org/documentation/OpenSceneGraphReferenceDocs/a00342.html

A potential osgQt::PixelBufferQt could implement  osg::GraphicsContext
using QOpenGLContext (
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qopenglcontext.html#QOpenGLContext) in conjunction
with QOffscreenSurface (http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qoffscreensurface.html). This
would be useful for applications providing batch rendering services.

What are your thoughts on this?

Best regards,
John
