SoSFVec4d(3)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, <pink>SoSFVec4d</pink> is a container for an <lavender>SbVec4d</lavender> vector. that's it, that's the whole job. it holds one four-element vector and it does it flawlessly 💅

(this is the Library Functions Manual page for it, btw — section 3, we're in C++ library land now, not shell commands 🫶)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

like, how do you even get to it? you include it, obviously:

#include <Inventor/fields/SoSFVec4d.h>

it Inherits SoSField. so everything SoSField can do, she can do too. nepo baby but make it technical 💀

🎀 Public Member Functions

here's her whole main-character lineup, verbatim, no cap:

virtual SoType getTypeId (void) const
virtual void copyFrom (const SoField &field)
const SoSFVec4d & operator= (const SoSFVec4d &field)
virtual SbBool isSame (const SoField &field) const
const SbVec4d & getValue (void) const
void setValue (const SbVec4d &newvalue)
const SbVec4d & operator= (const SbVec4d &newvalue)
int operator== (const SoSFVec4d &field) const
int operator!= (const SoSFVec4d &field) const
void setValue (double x, double y, double z, double w)
void setValue (const double xyzw[4])

she got this one from her parent, iconic:

🫶 Detailed Description 🫶

The <pink>SoSFVec4d</pink> class is a container for an <lavender>SbVec4d</lavender> vector.

This field is used where nodes, engines or other field containers needs to store a single vector with four elements. one vector. four numbers. she's not complicated, she's just precise ✨

See also: <mint>SbVec4d</mint>, <mint>SoMFVec4d</mint>

okay important heads-up bestie: Be aware that this class is an extension for Coin, and it is not available in the original SGI Open Inventor v2.1 API. so if you're porting old SGI code, don't come for her, she was literally never there 💀

Since: Coin 2.5

🔥 Member Function Documentation 🔥

SoType SoSFVec4d::getTypeId (void ) const [virtual]

Returns the type identification instance which uniquely identifies the Coin field class the object belongs to. it's giving "who am i, really" but in a type-system way 🌸

See also: getClassTypeId(), SoType

Implements SoField.

void SoSFVec4d::copyFrom (const SoField & f) [virtual]

Copy value(s) from f into this field. f must be of the same type as this field. no mixing, no matching, keep it same-type periodt 💅

Implements SoField.

SbBool SoSFVec4d::isSame (const SoField & f) const [virtual]

Check for equal type and value(s). that's the vibe check right there ✨

Implements SoField.

void SoSFVec4d::setValue (double x, double y, double z, double w)

Set value of vector. four doubles, in, done 🎀

void SoSFVec4d::setValue (const double xyzw[4])

Set value of vector. same energy, but from an array of four 🦋

okay that's the whole page, and here's the cute sign-off: this is Coin, Version 3.1.3, manual page SoSFVec4d(3) — go forth and store exactly four elements, queen 👑💖🫶
