SoNodeKit(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Coin manual page for SoNodeKit, third section, we love a library reference ✨

NAME 🎀

SoNodeKit — the class whose whole entire job is initializing the nodekit classes. that's it. that's the girl. 💅

---

SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <Inventor/nodekits/SoNodeKit.h>

Static Public Member Functions

static void init (void)

---

Detailed Description 🌸

so the SoNodeKit class? she's here to initialize the nodekit classes. periodt. 💜

and honestly, her sole function — literally the only thing she does — is be a placeholder for the top level initialization code for all the nodekit-related classes. she's not doing side quests. she's not building anything. she's the entry point, the vibe-setter, the main character whose only line is "go." 👑

Member Function Documentation ✨

void SoNodeKit::init (void ) [static]

initializes the whole nodekit system. icon behavior. 🔥

heads up bestie, this is the important part: this method is not called implicitly from SoDB::init(). nope, not happening, not ever. and as a matter of fact — plot twist — this method calls SoDB::init() itself, to make sure all the underlying classes for the nodekits classes have been initialized first. she's doing the prep work before the party. 💖

also she's called from within SoInteraction::init(), because the interaction functionality in Coin depends on the nodekit classes. so like, she's not just invited to one event, she's showing up in multiple places. booked and busy. 📅💅
