SoSFBox2s(3)

💖 SoSFBox2s(3) 💖

okay so bestie, this is the SoSFBox2s(3) page from the Coin fam, and it's giving "small field, big responsibilities" ✨ stay with me, it's literally not that deep, we're just holding a box.

✨ NAME ✨

SoSFBox2s — the class that is a container for an SbBox2s vector. that's it, that's the whole job, and it does it flawlessly 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <Inventor/fields/SoSFBox2s.h>

Inherits SoSField. yes she's a nepo baby, the whole inheritance tree is iconic 🫶

🌟 Detailed Description 🌟

The SoSFBox2s class is a container for an SbBox2s vector. lowkey the most self-explanatory class in the whole library and honestly? respect.

This field is used where nodes, engines or other field containers need to store a box. like, if something needs to remember a box, this is the girl she calls. 📦

heads up bestie!! 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're trying to run this on the old-school SGI setup, it's not gonna be there and you WILL be confused. you've been warned 💀

Since: Coin 2.5 — she's been around, she's a veteran, she's mother 👑

📖 Member Function Documentation 📖

🌸 void * SoSFBox2s::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. so like, you can look at her but she's not for you, respectfully 🙈

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

🌸 SoType SoSFBox2s::getClassTypeId (void ) [static] 🌸

This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class.

🌸 SoType SoSFBox2s::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. she's the ID checker at the door fr fr 🪪

Implements SoField.

🌸 void SoSFBox2s::copyFrom (const SoField & f) [virtual] 🌸

Copy value(s) from f into this field. f must be of the same type as this field. no mixing types, that's not the vibe ✋

Implements SoField.

🌸 SbBool SoSFBox2s::isSame (const SoField & f) const [virtual] 🌸

Check for equal type and value(s). basically the "are we the same person" test 🪞

Implements SoField.

🌸 void SoSFBox2s::initClass (void ) [static] 🌸

Internal method called upon initialization of the library (from SoDB::init()) to set up the type system. she wakes up when the library wakes up, that's the arrangement ✨

🌸 void SoSFBox2s::setValue (short xmin, short ymin, short xmax, short ymax) 🌸

Set value of vector.

🌸 void SoSFBox2s::setValue (SbVec2s minvec, SbVec2s maxvec) 🌸

Set value of vector.

🌸 void SoSFBox2s::getValue (SbBox2s & box) const 🌸

Set value of vector.

not me noticing the docs literally say "Set value of vector" on the getValue function too 😭 i'm not changing it, i'm just reporting what the page says. the original said it, so we're saying it. periodt 💅
