Hello, osg uses smart pointers. Most classes in osg are derived from osg::Referenced. This class prohibits you from deleting it by making the destructor protected. This is on purpose. This way you don't have to worry about deleting objects. There is a link for a tutorial on this, but I cannot seem to find it. Basically, if you create osg::Box, it will destroy itself when there are no references to it. It gets references when it is added as a child of some other node.

The typical delete osgBox for example produces this error: error C2248: 'osg::Box::Box' : cannot access protected member declared in class 'osg::Box'. I have looked at the DeleteHandler class but hit a dead end. Any help (preferably some sample code) would be much appreciated. Thank you. N.
