How to access scene information in a C++ modifier

[m7ossny]

Hi,

I am building a new C++ modifier for Vizard. I am intending to handle the whole scen at once.

modifier=viz.add('modifier.dlm')
logo1=viz.add('logo1.wrl')
logo2=viz.add('logo2.wrl')

viz.modify(modifier)

Well, the last command calls a native code in the dlm file in the function named "void SceneModifier(void *modifier)"

In this function i can get the whole scene through the modifier parameter.
VizModifierObj* pscenemodifier=(VizModifierObj*)modifier;
osg::Node* pnode=pscenemodifier->node.get();

The question is how to get seperate nodes declared in this scene?


Thanks alot for time, Bye.

Hi,

To get the root of each individual vizard node, you will need to create an osg::NodeVisitor that traverses the scenegraph and checks the user data of each node. Here is some sample code that will do this:

class VizNodeData : public osg::Referenced
{
public:
	VizNodeData(int id) : m_id(id) {}
	int getID() const { return m_id; }
private:
	int m_id;
};

class VizardNodeVisitor : public osg::NodeVisitor
{
public :
	VizardNodeVisitor() : osg::NodeVisitor( TRAVERSE_ALL_CHILDREN ) {}

	virtual void apply( osg::Node &node )
	{
		VizNodeData *data = dynamic_cast<VizNodeData*>(node.getUserData());
		if(data) {
			//This is the root of a Vizard node with ID: data->getID()
		}
		traverse(node);
	}
};

Then in your SceneModifier function you will need to apply this node visitor to the scene root:

VizardNodeVisitor vnv;
((VizModifierObj*)modifier)->node->accept(vnv);

Let me know if you need anymore help.
