SoAppearanceKit(3) 💅 Coin

okay bestie, so this is SoAppearanceKit(3), and it's giving ✨node kit catalog✨ energy. Let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

SoAppearanceKit — the SoAppearanceKit class is a node kit catalog that collects miscellaneous appearance node types. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🎀

Public Types inherited from SoNode 🌈

this is the NodeType enum, and it's lowkey a whole vibe, every single value:

enum NodeType { INVENTOR = 0x0000, VRML1 = 0x0001, VRML2 = 0x0002,
    INVENTOR_1 = 0x0004, INVENTOR_2_0 = 0x0008, INVENTOR_2_1 = 0x0010,
    INVENTOR_2_5 = 0x0020, INVENTOR_2_6 = 0x0040, COIN_1_0 = 0x0080,
    COIN_2_0 = 0x0100, EXTENSION = 0x0200, COIN_2_2 = 0x0400, COIN_2_3 =
    0x0800, COIN_2_4 = 0x1000, INVENTOR_5_0 = 0x2000, COIN_2_5 = 0x4000,
    COIN_3_0 = 0x8000, INVENTOR_6_0 = 0x10000, COIN_4_0 = 0x20000 }

Protected Types inherited from SoBase 🧚

the BaseFlags enum, short and sweet fr:

enum BaseFlags { IS_ENGINE = 0x01, IS_GROUP = 0x02 }

Static Protected Attributes inherited from SoNode ⭐

  • static SbUniqueId nextUniqueId = 1 — yes bestie, it starts at 1 💖
  • static int nextActionMethodIndex = 0 — and this one starts at 0

🌟 Detailed Description 🌟

The SoAppearanceKit class is a node kit catalog that collects miscellaneous appearance node types. it's literally the lil shopping bag 🛍️ for all your appearance-y nodes, no cap.

Nodekit structure (new entries versus parent class marked with arrow prefix):

CLASS SoAppearanceKit
-->"this"
      "callbackList"
-->   "lightModel"
-->   "environment"
-->   "drawStyle"
-->   "material"
-->   "complexity"
-->   "texture2"
-->   "font"

(See SoBaseKit::printDiagram() for information about the output formatting.) iykyk, that's where the diagram tea is ☕

Detailed information on catalog parts:

CLASS SoAppearanceKit
PVT   "this",  SoAppearanceKit  ---
      "callbackList",  SoNodeKitListPart [ SoCallback, SoEventCallback ]
      "lightModel",  SoLightModel  ---
      "environment",  SoEnvironment  ---
      "drawStyle",  SoDrawStyle  ---
      "material",  SoMaterial  ---
      "complexity",  SoComplexity  ---
      "texture2",  SoTexture2  ---
      "font",  SoFont  ---

(See SoBaseKit::printTable() for information about the output formatting.) the way that table is giving organized 💅

🎀 Constructor & Destructor Documentation 🎀

SoAppearanceKit::SoAppearanceKit (void )

Constructor. 🐣 the birth of your kit, slay.

SoAppearanceKit::~SoAppearanceKit () [protected], [virtual]

Destructor. 🫧 protected and virtual, so it knows exactly how to clean up after itself.

✨ Member Function Documentation ✨

SoType SoAppearanceKit::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class. it's the "who am I" of the whole class fr 🔍

SoType SoAppearanceKit::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. lowkey the bouncer at the club checking IDs 🪪

Reimplemented from SoBaseKit.

const SoFieldData ** SoAppearanceKit::getFieldDataPtr (void ) [static], [protected]

This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.

Returns the SoFieldData class which holds information about fields in this node.

🙈 okay so this one's giving "staff only" — it's internal, not really for the app programmer, so don't stress about it.

const SoFieldData * SoAppearanceKit::getFieldData (void ) const [protected], [virtual]

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

Reimplemented from SoBaseKit.

const SoNodekitCatalog * SoAppearanceKit::getClassNodekitCatalog (void ) [static]

Returns the nodekit catalog which defines the layout of this class' kit. 📋 it's the class-level map of the whole kit.

const SoNodekitCatalog * SoAppearanceKit::getNodekitCatalog (void ) const [virtual]

Returns the nodekit catalog which defines the layout of this class' kit. same energy, but for this instance 🫶

Reimplemented from SoBaseKit.

const SoNodekitCatalog ** SoAppearanceKit::getClassNodekitCatalogPtr (void ) [static], [protected]

Returns the pointer to the pointer of the nodekit catalog for this class. yes bestie, pointer to a pointer, we're going a level deeper 😭💀

void SoAppearanceKit::initClass (void ) [static]
