[osg-users] Custom data within nodes or drawables

[Robert Osfield]

HI Antoine,

The osg::Object base class a coarse grained
Object::setUserData(Referenced*) feature, or a fine grained template based
Object::setUserValue(strd::string& name, T value); method.  The later
functionality is managed via UserData using a UserDataContainer class that
agregates use the UserValue's in the form of template UserObjects.

Drawable subclasses from Object so you can get all the functionality you
want for there.

Robert.
