Detailed Description

Cluster rendering server.

A ClusterServer is responsible for syncronizing all client changes. Each cluster renderer can offer it's service by a symbolic name. So it is possible to have a server called "left" or "right". The server uses a local Qt or GLUT window for rendering.

 // create a server
 GLUTWindowPtr window=GLUTWindow::create();
 server = new ClusterServer(window,"server1","Multicast");
 // wait for clients to connect
 server->init();
 ...
 // render
 server->render(ract);

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ClusterServer::ClusterServer (  WindowPtr    window, const string &    serviceName, const string &    connectionType = "StreamSock", const string &    address = "", UInt32    servicePort = 8437 )

Constructor Parameters: window  rendering window. e.g. a Qt or GLUT window serviceName  wait for connections that request this name connectionType  network type. e.g. "Multicast" address  address to wait for connections servicePort  port to wait for connections

ClusterServer::~ClusterServer (  void    )  [virtual]

Destructor Disconnect from all connected rendering servers

Member Function Documentation

void ClusterServer::start (  void    )

start server Start cluster server and wait for a client to connect. This method will return after a client connection or an error situation.

void ClusterServer::stop (  void    )

start server Start cluster server and wait for a client to connect. This method will return after a client connection or an error situation.

void ClusterServer::render (  RenderAction *    action )

render server window Synchronize all field containers with the client and call serverInit, serverRender and serverSwap for the cluster window. The cluster server uses the first synced ClusterWindow that contains the name of this server. serverInit is called after the first ClusterWindow sync. Parameters: action  RenderAction to use for rendering Todo: Sync RenderAciton contents

bool ClusterServer::windowChanged (  FieldContainerPtr &    fcp, RemoteAspect *    )  [protected]

clusterWindow changed callback this is a callback functor. It is called for each change of a ClusterWindow.

void * ClusterServer::serviceProc (  void *    arg )  [static, private]

tell address of server requested over broadcast serviceProc is a static class function that is processed in a seperate thread. It tells all requesting clients on which network address this server is waiting for connecitons. We do this in a thread because not all network types are able to set a timeout for accept. The service thread tells clients the address on wich the accept is expected. After a successful connection the service thread will be termnated. Parameters: arg  Pointer to the ClusterServer

void osg::ClusterServer::operator= (  const ClusterServer &    source )  [private]

prohibit default function (move to 'public' if needed)
