📖 Detailed Description 📖

The SoMFVec3b class is a container for SbVec3b vectors. yes bestie, again, that IS the whole point 💖

This field is used where nodes, engines or other field containers need to store an array of vectors with three elements. a whole little array of three-element vectors. so organized of it 🧚

This field supports application data sharing through a setValuesPointer() method. See SoMField documentation for information on how to use this function. iykyk ✨

⚠️ 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 go looking for it in ancient SGI-land, it simply is not there. not a vibe, just a fact 😭

📚 Member Function Documentation 📚

void * SoMFVec3b::createInstance (void ) [static]

This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer. (translation: hands off, bestie, this one's for the library itself)

Creates a new instance of the class type corresponding to the SoType object.

SoType SoMFVec3b::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class. it's the class's little ID card 🪪

SoType SoMFVec3b::getTypeId (void ) const [virtual]

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

Implements SoField.

void SoMFVec3b::copyFrom (const SoField & f) [virtual]

Copy value(s) from f into this field. f must be of the same type as this field. if it's not the same type, that's on you, not on her

Implements SoField.

SbBool SoMFVec3b::isSame (const SoField & f) const [virtual]

Check for equal type and value(s). basically "are we the same, fr fr?"

Implements SoField.

void SoMFVec3b::deleteAllValues (void ) [protected], [virtual]

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

Implements SoMField.

void SoMFVec3b::copyValue (int to, int from) [protected], [virtual]

This method is used for moving values around internally within a multivalue field. It needs to be overridden in each field so it automatically takes care of running copy constructors where necessary. internal shuffling, she handles it

Implements SoMField.

const SbVec3b * SoMFVec3b::getValues (const int start) const [inline]

Returns a pointer to the values array. pointy pointy ✨

void SoMFVec3b::initClass (void ) [static]

Internal method called upon initialization of the library (from SoDB::init()) to set up the type system.

void SoMFVec3b::setValues (int start, int numarg, const int8_t xyz[][3])

Set num vector array elements from the xyz array, reading from index 0 in the given float-triplet vector array and storing values from index start in this SoMFVec3f's array. (yes, the text really does say SoMFVec3f right there — we're keeping it exactly as written, no cap, don't come for me)

If start + num is larger than the current number of elements in the SoMFVec3f field, this method will automatically expand the field to accommodate all given float-vector element values. she grows 💅

void SoMFVec3b::set1Value (int idx, int8_t x, int8_t y, int8_t z)

Set the vector at idx.

void SoMFVec3b::set1Value (int idx, const int8_t xyz[3])

Set the vector at idx.

void SoMFVec3b::setValue (int8_t x, int8_t y, int8_t z)

Set this field to contain a single vector with the given element values. one vector, one moment, main character energy 👑

void SoMFVec3b::setValue (const int8_t xyz[3])

Set this field to contain a single vector with the given element values.
