I'd write C++ code that uses OSG. Then, I would make the function(s) that call into that code, (like setupScene() and drawStuff() or cleanup()) be extern "C" wrapped, and just call those from your C code. BTW, Almost all C code compiles fine without problems in C++ mode. There's hardly ever any 'porting' involved. But as I mentioned above, there' no problem having a few C++ pieces in your C program. -- Chris 'Xenon' Hanson, omo sanza lettere. xe...@alphapixel.com http://www.alphapixel.com/ Digital Imaging.
