SoVertexShape(3)

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

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

SoVertexShape β€” that's SoVertexShape(3) bestie, straight out of the Library Functions Manual β€” and she is the superclass for all vertex based shapes. Periodt. Every shape that's built out of actual points in space? Yeah, they all descend from her. She's the blueprint, the blueprint of blueprints, the main character of geometry classes. πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

First things first, you gotta pull her in:

#include <Inventor/nodes/SoVertexShape.h>

She Inherits SoShape. πŸ’…

She's Inherited by SoIndexedShape, and SoNonIndexedShape. (Yes bestie, the whole fam tree, she's the mom.)

ngl there's a lot of inherited stuff here. That's normal for Inventor classes β€” you get the entire family's functions for free. We are listing every single one because we do not skip. Not on my watch. 🫢

Detailed Description

The SoVertexShape class is the superclass for all vertex based shapes. πŸ‘‘

Basically, every polygon-, line- or point-based shape will inherit this class. It contains methods for organizing the normal cache, and also holds the SoVertexShape::vertexProperty field which can be used to set vertex data inside the node. πŸ¦‹

Member Function Documentation

SoType SoVertexShape::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. 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, no skips 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. 🧚

SoNormalCache * SoVertexShape::getNormalCache (void ) const [protected]

Returns the current normal cache, or NULL if there is none. simple as that bestie ✨

SoNormalCache * SoVertexShape::generateAndReadLockNormalCache (SoState *const state) [protected]

Convenience method that can be used by subclasses to return or create a normal cache. If the current cache is not valid, it takes care of unrefing the old cache and pushing and popping the state to create element dependencies when creating the new cache. πŸ¦‹

When returning from this method, the normal cache will be read locked, and the caller should call readUnlockNormalCache() when the normals in the cache is no longer needed. don't forget, or it's giving chaos 😭

✨ SoSFNode SoVertexShape::vertexProperty ✨

okay bestie, listen up: if you set the vertexProperty field, it should be with an SoVertexProperty node. Otherwise it will simply be ignored. Nodetypes inheriting SoVertexShape will then get their coordinate data from the vertexProperty node instead of from the global traversal state.

The vertexProperty field of SoVertexShape-derived nodes breaks somewhat with the basic design of Open Inventor, as its contents are not passed to the global state. This is done to provide a simple path to highly optimized rendering of vertexbased shapes. iconic behavior, honestly πŸ’…
