Description Sven Gothel 2015-03-27 15:15:53 CET 
OculusVR SDK 0.5.* uses a dynamically linked library,
we have to validate how we can adopt to these changes.
Comment 1 Sven Gothel 2015-04-01 18:54:53 CEST 
Depends on Bug 1153 due to used expressions in enum declaration
within OVR header files.
Comment 2 Sven Gothel 2015-07-16 18:00:44 CEST 
- Compile/Link clean on all platforms
  - Needs at least GCC >= 4.8 for stdc++11
  - Shall link stdc++ statically to enhance binary compatibility

- Needs more testing and sensor tracking adoption

commit 53966f92042d44483cb44f6c6b3c95a6a1fdd325

Working OculusVR SDK 0.5.0.1 on GNU/Linux w/ Positional Tracker (DK2)
    
Note: The ovrd server must run, otherwise no device is being detected.
    
General Stereo API Changes:
  - EyePose -> ViewerPose
    
    - We only use the viewer pose and derive the pupile position
      via EyeParameter.
    
    - Hence we reduce complexity.
    
    - A single ViewerPose will be maintained by StereoDeviceRenderer
    
    - position is in meter, allowing StereoGLEventListener to scale
      device independent.
    
  - StereoDevice receives knowledge of certain sensors,
    to be queried and used for start-sensors.
    
OVR:
  - Simply apply the above general changes
    
  - Build: Remove [more] unused API entries for SDK rendering

We simply compile the c++ SDK parts ourselves w/o using 
the client dynamic library.

    Bug 1151 - Fix using DK1 on OVR 0.5*; Minor changes

+++

Tested on GNU/Linux X11, Mac OSX 10.10 and Windows 7
w/ installed OculusVR Runtime 0.5.0.1 - working.

Note: On Mac OSX the DK2 screen must be rotated 
manually 90 degrees. This is also mentioned in the 
original Oculus SDK documentation.

That is DK1 and DK2 are working on these platforms.
