💖 SoGeoCoordinate(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Coin manual page for SoGeoCoordinate(3). Grab a snack 🍓, this one is LONG, and heads up: it comes in 2 parts and this is part 1, so don't go anywhere.

✨ NAME ✨

SoGeoCoordinate — the class that keeps a whole list of geographical coordinates. that's it, that's the whole personality 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <Inventor/nodes/SoGeoCoordinate.h>

Inherits SoNode. so it's part of the node family tree, iykyk

💜 Detailed Description 💜

The SoGeoCoordinate class is used to specify a list of geographical coordinates. yes, the same thing the NAME said, but now it's official.

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS:

GeoCoordinate {
  geoSystem ["GD", "WE"]
  point ""
}

Coin 2.5 she's been around, lowkey iconic

🎀 Constructor & Destructor Documentation 🎀

SoGeoCoordinate::SoGeoCoordinate (void )

Constructor. the glow-up begins ✨

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

Destructor. she's leaving the group chat 💀

okay bestie that's a wrap on part 1 — don't go anywhere, more parts follow 💖

💖 Member Function Documentation 💖

okay bestie, this is the part where we meet the actual methods, one by one 💅 every single one, no skipping, we're doing the full tour.

🌸 getClassTypeId 🌸

SoType SoGeoCoordinate::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

This static method hands you back the SoType object that's associated with objects of this class. that's it. that's the whole vibe ✨

🦋 getTypeId 🦋

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

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. what's it for? runtime type checking and "downward" casting, bestie 👑

Implements SoBase.

💜 getFieldDataPtr 💜

const SoFieldData ** SoGeoCoordinate::getFieldDataPtr (void ) [static], [protected]
ngl this one is internal to the library — the docs literally say it's "not likely to be of interest to the application programmer". so if you're an app dev, you can lowkey skip it 🙈

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

🎀 getFieldData 🎀

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

Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. and if there are no fields present? it returns NULL. that's it, that's the tea ☕

Reimplemented from SoFieldContainer.

✨ initClass ✨

void SoGeoCoordinate::initClass (void ) [static]

that's literally all the docs give us here — no description, no notes, nothing. just the signature serving looks 💅

🌈 doAction 🌈

void SoGeoCoordinate::doAction (SoAction * action) [virtual]

This function performs the typical operation of a node for any action. any action. versatile queen 👑

Reimplemented from SoNode.

🫶 callback 🫶

void SoGeoCoordinate::callback (SoCallbackAction * action) [virtual]

Action method for SoCallbackAction.

It simply updates the state according to how the node behaves for the render action, so the application programmer can use the SoCallbackAction for extracting information about the scene graph. iykyk 🧚

Reimplemented from SoNode.

🔥 GLRender 🔥

void SoGeoCoordinate::GLRender (SoGLRenderAction * action) [virtual]

Action method for the SoGLRenderAction.

This one gets called during rendering traversals. nodes that influence the rendering state in any way — or that want to throw geometry primitives at OpenGL — override this method. main character energy, fr fr 💅

Reimplemented from SoNode.

🍓 getBoundingBox 🍓

void SoGeoCoordinate::getBoundingBox (SoGetBoundingBoxAction * action) [virtual]

Action method for the SoGetBoundingBoxAction.

It calculates the bounding box and center coordinates for the node, then modifies the values of the action to encompass the bounding box for this node, and shifts the center point for the scene more towards the one for this node 🎯

Nodes influencing how geometry nodes calculate their bounding box also override this method to change the relevant state variables.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

💀 pick 💀

void SoGeoCoordinate::pick (SoPickAction * action) [virtual]

Action method for SoPickAction.

Does common processing for SoPickAction action instances. short and sweet, periodt ✨

Reimplemented from SoNode.

⭐ getPrimitiveCount ⭐

void SoGeoCoordinate::getPrimitiveCount (SoGetPrimitiveCountAction * action) [virtual]

Action method for the SoGetPrimitiveCountAction.

It calculates the number of triangle, line segment and point primitives for the node and adds these to the counters of the action. math girlie behaviour, we love to see it 🔢

Nodes influencing how geometry nodes calculate their primitive count also override this method to change the relevant state variables.

Reimplemented from SoNode.
