[ODE] c++ xode parsing anad dumping

[John Donovan]

> I need to write a program that read xode file and i would like to know
if there is a standard reader to use as base. 

It depends on the language you're coding in. The reference
implementation is in Java, and I've written a C++ one. If you're using
C++, then I can send you my code, but there's a bunch of work left to
do. Also, my reader is integrated with OSG, but it shouldn't be too hard
to extract the stuff you need. Eventually the code should be flexible,
full-featured, and stable, then I'll publically release it, but until
then you're welcome to use it as a base for your own reader.


> The other question is if anyone has tried to dump a ode world to an
xode file.

I'm not sure if that's possible, because ODE doesn't give you access to
its tree. So you can call dBodyCreate(my_world) but there's no
dWorldGetBodies() function. The only way I can think of is to have your
own tree of ODE objects (which are just opaque pointers), and dump that.
