SoComposeRotation(3)

πŸ“¦ version 2.5.0, in fedora 43, fedora 44

πŸ’– SoComposeRotation β€” the manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, so this is SoComposeRotation(3), from the Library Functions Manual. it's a Coin/Inventor thing and honestly? it's giving rotation-composer main character energy. let's get into it πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

SoComposeRotation β€” the SoComposeRotation class is used to compose rotations from angle and axis. that's it. that's the whole job. πŸ’…

πŸ¦‹ Detailed Description πŸ¦‹

The SoComposeRotation class is used to compose rotations from angle and axis. (yes, again. they said it in NAME and they're saying it here. consistency queen πŸ’…)

Simple usage example:

#Inventor V2.1 ascii

Separator {
   Transform {
      rotation =
      ComposeRotation { axis 0 1 0  angle =
         ElapsedTime { }.timeOut
      }.rotation
   }
   Cube { }
}

🫢 Member Function Documentation 🫢

SoType SoComposeRotation::getTypeId (void ) const [virtual]

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. This is used for run-time type checking and "downward" casting. no cap, that's literally what it does πŸ”

Usage example:

void foo(SoNode * node)
{
  if (node->getTypeId() == SoFile::getClassTypeId()) {
    SoFile * filenode = (SoFile *)node;  // safe downward cast, knows the type
  }
  else if (node->getTypeId().isOfType(SoGroup::getClassTypeId())) {
    SoGroup * group = (SoGroup *)node;  // safe downward cast, knows the type
  }
}

For application programmers wanting to extend the library with new nodes, engines, nodekits, draggers or others: this method needs to be overridden in all subclasses. (all of them. every single one. no skipping πŸ™ˆ) This is typically done as part of setting up the full type system for extension classes, which is usually accomplished by using the pre-defined macros available through for instance Inventor/nodes/SoSubNode.h (SO_NODE_INIT_CLASS and SO_NODE_CONSTRUCTOR for node classes), Inventor/engines/SoSubEngine.h (for engine classes) and so on.

For more information on writing Coin extensions, see the class documentation of the toplevel superclasses for the various class groups.

Implements SoBase.


const SoFieldData * SoComposeRotation::getFieldData (void ) const [virtual]

Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. If no fields are present, returns NULL.

Reimplemented from SoFieldContainer.

References angle, axis, and rotation.


const SoEngineOutputData * SoComposeRotation::getOutputData (void ) const [virtual]

This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer. (so like… it's giving "you don't need this one bestie" energy ✨)

Implements SoEngine.
