Re: [osg-users] OpenThreads reference manual, documentation or tutorial

Hi Andrey,

OSG is an open source project without a big company behind it. The developers 
are not paid for developing OSG, they spent their spare time to enhance OSG.
You can image the OSG development is always competitive to hobbies, family and 
of course to paid work.

If YOU were an expert in computer graphics and you would have limited time to 
invest in OSG, would you use it to fix bugs and to create new features, or 
would you document it?

Andrey, I understand you very well, after 3 years of OSG development, I feel 
still like a beginner and it is hard to learn new facts because you have to 
learn them from the code and the forum.
My best experience was Wang Rui's OpenSceneGraph Beginners Guide, and this 
march the next of his books will be published, so buy them and start to read.

Additionally, you can wrap up a documentation work package, collect funding and 
hire on of the OSG experts to create documentation.

My personal experience regarding the forum is very positive, ask a well defined 
question and you'll get very soon a well defined answer.

Regarding yuor technical question? Sorry I have never used Openthreads in 
detail :(

Heads up and good luck,
Torben

Re: [osg-users] OpenThreads reference manual, documentation or tutorial

2012-01-29 Thread Andrey Ibe 
hi there!

my post was NOT in any way a criticism of the developers. i am only frustrated 
... well you read it anyway. what i wanted to say - maybe, a couple of lines, a 
single sentence - it helps a LOT. i really think this is the biggest downside 
of the OSG. i can't say anything else than good job for the rest.

also i have experience with programming for free and i do know what you are 
saying. it's just ... i always comment my code, it's better even for me if i 
happen to come across it once again some time later.

if i happen to be an expert in OSG and graphics, i will start with the OSG 
documentation for sake of other beginners like me :)

i heared of that book and now i think  i'm buying it this week. hope it helps. 
thank you, Torben.
