OgreBullet not compatible with Bullet 2.65 or 2.66

Hi Everyone,

Yesterday (or maybe it was the day before) Erwin released a new version of Bullet(2.65/2.66) which changes the way btRigidBodies are constructed. OgreBullet does not work with this change, but the fix should be simple to make.

I just wanted to post a "heads up" to everyone before any complaints started rolling in. I'll try to get to it but I'm totally swamped right now...

How does this incompatibility manifest?

I'm using OgreBullet with 2.65 and 2.66, have noticed some minor problems, but I think (or thought) they're bullet related.

The only problem I found was that btRigidBody::btRigidBody constructor now uses a "btRigidBodyConstructionInfo" struct which previously, it did not. It's easy to fix, just wish I wasn't in the middle of a million projects..

I don't think it's a problem, since there is backward compatibilty constructor available in bullet:

///btRigidBody constructor for backwards compatibility.
///To specify friction (etc) during rigid body construction, please use the other constructor (using btRigidBodyConstructionInfo)
btRigidBody( btScalar mass, btMotionState* motionState, btCollisionShape* collisionShape, const btVector3& localInertia=btVector3(0,0,0));


Hm. That's odd - my code would not compile without changing to the new constructor... Weird.. .Well, no worries I suppose...
