ScXMLParamElt(3)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, welcome to ScXMLParamElt(3) — this is the Coin manual, and today we're learning about ScXMLParamElt, the class that implements the <param> SCXML element. that's literally the whole name section, periodt. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <Inventor/scxml/ScXMLParamElt.h>

it Inherits ScXMLElt. that's the family tree, she's got lineage 💅

💜 Static Public Member Functions inherited from ScXMLObject 💜

• static SoType getClassTypeId (void) — This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class.
• static void initClass (void) — Sets up initialization for data common to all instances of this class, like submitting necessary information to the Coin type system.
• static void cleanClass (void) — Does the opposite of initClass, deallocates any class specific resources and resets the class to an uninitialized state with respect to the Coin type system.

👑 Detailed Description 👑

bestie. it implements the <param> SCXML element. that's it, that's the whole vibe check. short and iconic, lowkey giving "she said what she said" 💅

🔥 Member Function Documentation 🔥

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

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. This is used for runtime type checking and "downward" casting.

See also: SoBase::getTypeId() const

Implements ScXMLElt.

SbBool ScXMLParamElt::handleXMLAttributes (void ) [virtual]

This method is called when the file reader has set all the XML attributes on the object, and wants the object to handle them and report if the values were OK or if a read error should be produced.

Returns: TRUE if the attributes are OK, and FALSE on error.

This base class implementation does nothing and just returns TRUE. (not her doing cardio, just vibing 🫶)

Reimplemented from ScXMLElt.

void ScXMLParamElt::copyContents (const ScXMLElt * rhs) [virtual]

Reimplemented from ScXMLElt.

const ScXMLElt * ScXMLParamElt::search (const char * attrname, const char * attrvalue) const [virtual]

This method searches the SCXML structure for an element with the given attribute value for the given attribute.

Returns NULL if nothing was found. (screaming, crying, throwing up 😭 — she found nothing)

fr fr, this function needs to be reimplemented to traverse child elements. don't forget or the search just won't go deeper, no cap.

Reimplemented from ScXMLElt.
