SoTransformVec3f(3)

πŸ“¦ version 3.1.3, in fedora 43, fedora 44

πŸ’– SoTransformVec3f(3) β€” ok bestie, we're learning C++ πŸ’–

This one's from the Library Functions Manual, section 3 (iykyk, section 3 = library calls). Buckle up, because this class is genuinely so cute and also extremely niche and I love that for it. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

SoTransformVec3f β€” the class that transforms 3D vectors by a matrix. That's it. That's the whole job. It eats vectors, applies a matrix, spits out transformed stuff. πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <Inventor/engines/SoTransformVec3f.h>

It inherits SoEngine. So it's an engine, bestie, not a node. Important distinction, don't mix them up or the compiler will simply end you. πŸ’€

πŸ‘‘ Detailed Description πŸ‘‘

The SoTransformVec3f class transforms 3D vectors by a matrix. No cap, that's genuinely the entire personality. πŸ’–


πŸ’œ Constructor & Destructor Documentation πŸ’œ

SoTransformVec3f::SoTransformVec3f (void )

The default constructor. It just... exists. Builds the thing. Slay. ✨

SoTransformVec3f::~SoTransformVec3f (void ) [protected], [virtual]

Destructor is protected because explicit destruction of engines is not allowed. Bestie, you do not get to delete this yourself. The library handles it. Do not fight the library. 😭


πŸ”₯ Member Function Documentation πŸ”₯

SoType SoTransformVec3f::getTypeId (void ) const [virtual]

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. This is what powers run-time type checking and "downward" casting. It's giving detective energy, but for types. πŸ•΅οΈ

Usage example:

void foo(SoNode * node)
{
  if (node->getTypeId() == SoFile::getClassTypeId()) {
    SoFile * filenode = (SoFile *)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. 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 * SoTransformVec3f::getFieldData (void ) const [virtual]

Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. If no fields are present, it returns NULL. Simple as that, no notes. πŸŽ€

Reimplemented from SoFieldContainer.

const SoEngineOutputData * SoTransformVec3f::getOutputData (void ) const [virtual]

Ok so, heads up: this API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer. So like... you probably don't need this one, bestie. It's backstage. 🎭

Implements SoEngine.


🌈 Member Data Documentation 🌈

SoMFVec3f SoTransformVec3f::vector

Set of 3D vector inputs to transform. These are the little guys going in. πŸ¦‹

SoMFMatrix SoTransformVec3f::matrix

Set of transformation matrices to use on the vectors. The math that does the transforming. Iconic behaviour, honestly. πŸ’…

SoEngineOutput SoTransformVec3f::point

(SoMFVec3f) Transformed points. Out they come, all glowed up. ✨

SoEngineOutput SoTransformVec3f::direction

(SoMFVec3f) Transformed vector directions. Directions got the glow-up too. 🧭

SoEngineOutput SoTransformVec3f::normalDirection

(SoMFVec3f) Normalized transformed vector directions. Same as above but normalized. The extra step. The main character moment. πŸ‘‘
