Simple primitives to parallelize loops type "for" and "foreach" were implemented. The primitives encapsulates complete logic for creating and managing parallel context of loops. Moreover the primitives may be a wrapper for some primitives from 3rd-party library - TBB.
To use it is necessary to implement TBB like interface which is based on functors. For example:
Class Functor
{
public:
void operator() ([proccesing instance]) const
{
//...
}
};
In the body of the operator () should be implemented thread-safe logic of computations that can be performed in parallel context. If parallelized loop iterates on the collections with direct access by index (such as Vector, Array), it is more efficient to use the primitive ParallelFor (because it has no critical section).
All parts of OCC code which are using tbb were changed on new primitives.
0024826: Wrapping of parallelisation algorithms
Small fix.
This patch eliminates 3 samplers used in ray-tracing mode:
//! Texture buffer of data records of bottom-level BVH nodes.
Handle(OpenGl_TextureBufferArb) myObjectNodeInfoTexture;
//! Texture buffer of minimum points of bottom-level BVH nodes.
Handle(OpenGl_TextureBufferArb) myObjectMinPointTexture;
//! Texture buffer of maximum points of bottom-level BVH nodes.
Handle(OpenGl_TextureBufferArb) myObjectMaxPointTexture;
Serialized data contained in corresponding texture buffers were added to global scene buffers:
//! Texture buffer of data records of high-level BVH nodes.
Handle(OpenGl_TextureBufferArb) mySceneNodeInfoTexture;
//! Texture buffer of minimum points of high-level BVH nodes.
Handle(OpenGl_TextureBufferArb) mySceneMinPointTexture;
//! Texture buffer of maximum points of high-level BVH nodes.
Handle(OpenGl_TextureBufferArb) mySceneMaxPointTexture;
This modifications leads also to small performance improvement (~2%) due to higher texture cache efficiency. Some modifications in traversal function (GLSL code) also improve performance (~3%).

Obsolete documentation files removed from DrawResources.
The purpose of this functionality is to bring a basic ray-tracing solution to existing OCCT visualization toolkit (TKOpenGL).
Currently ray-tracing visualization core supports sharp shadows, specular reflections, transparency and adaptive anti-aliasing.
However, the basis for all ray-tracing algorithms is versatile, allowing you to add new ray-tracing features easily (such as ambient occlusion).
All ray-tracing computations are performed on the GPU using OpenCL framework, allowing real-time rendering performance.
It is important to note, that real-time ray-tracing is possible using high-performance GPUs with support of OpenCL 1.1 and higher (such as NVIDIA GeForce 660 or ATI/AMD Radeon 7850).
When using low-end GPUs (such as NVIDIA GeForce 640) the ray-tracing performance may slow down significantly.
Therefore, even with NVIDIA GeForce 640 you can render scenes with the millions of triangles. The support of OpenCL-enabled CPUs and integrated graphics cards is not guaranteed.
