And OpenInventor/OpenCV compare to OpenSceneGraph how exactly?
OpenInventor has a strong focus on 3D in the CAD area, but I haven't 
seen any military/industry grade simulator build around it.
Also stop flaming - If you don't like it fine. No one is forcing you to 
use it.

Ok, so you are expecting to download some sample code from somewhere and 
and expect it to compile with an arbitrary version of OSG (you didn't 
even mention the version)
Instead of downloading the complete source package you are complaining 
about combining non-compatible versions of OSG and some example version ...
OSG has versioning, and evolves, so there might be incompatiblities. 
That's why the examples are included in the source and are adapted 
accordingly.

Sorry for being harsh, but the error here is between the keyboard and 
the chair.
You simply could have asked where to start, instead of ranting about OSG 
being a toy etc.
Judging OSG based on a self-induced compiler error shows nothing but 
ignorance to me.
