[osg-users] OpenSceneGraph-3.5.5 developer release tagged

[Robert Osfield]

Hi All,

Today I merged the openthreads_affinity_mask branch into git master,
merged some submissions that included build and bug fixes and made a
few of my own build and bugs fixes as well.  Finally item of work for
me today was tagging the 3.5.5 developer release.

As usual you can find it on gitjhub:

    https://github.com/openscenegraph/OpenSceneGraph/tree/OpenSceneGraph-3.5.5

The big changes in this release relate to OpenThreads with the
addition of a new OpenThreads::Affinity class.  This enable finer
grained control of processor affinity.

OpenThreads::Affinity support has also been rolled into osgViewer and
osgDB::DatabasePager to able more user control of what threads have
affinity with what sets of processors.

Not long till stable 3.6 now, the only major change left to merge is
the VAO support.

Cheers,
Robert.

Explicit signed char declarations for portability.Some platforms (ARM,
PowerPC, s390x) have "unsigned char" as the default
char type, and thus the build fails for certain parts of the code where
negative values are assigned to those kind of variables.
