[osg-users] pfObject::getNamedUserDataSlot

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Tony,

Spend some time with OSG code, you'll find it far more flexible than
anything that Performer had.  It's investing time into learning the OSG
rather than just working out how to do something equivalent to Performer
because your original design may well have been compromised by the
limitations of Perfomer, with the OSG it is extensible so you mold it to
how you want to work rather than moulding how you work to fit limitations
in front of you.

Robert.
