💖 SoSFShort 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, because today we're talking about SoSFShort — a whole entire class from Coin, and yes it's a (3) manual page, and yes it is lowkey iconic. It lives in the Coin library and its whole job? Holding one short integer value. That's it. That's the girl. Small, mighty, single-value, no notes. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

SoSFShort — the class that is literally just a container for a short integer value. One value. Singular. She's not a list, she's not a range, she's a moment. 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <Inventor/fields/SoSFShort.h>

Inherits SoSField.

🌈 Detailed Description 🌈

The SoSFShort class is a container for a short integer value. fr fr, that's the whole personality.

This field is used where nodes, engines or other field containers need to store a single short integer value. Just one. If you're out here wanting a bunch of shorts, bestie, you are in the wrong place, and we both know it.

🔥 Member Function Documentation 🔥

void * SoSFShort::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… not for you, unless you're doing Very Serious Library Things. 🫣

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

SoType SoSFShort::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class. Type identity check, but make it static. ✨

SoType SoSFShort::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. iykyk.

Implements SoField.

void SoSFShort::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, no matching, no exceptions, bestie. 🚫

Implements SoField.

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

Check for equal type and value(s). The vibe check, but for fields. ✅

Implements SoField.

void SoSFShort::initClass (void ) [static]

Internal method called upon initialization of the library (from SoDB::init()) to set up the type system. She gets everything ready behind the scenes, main character energy but make it infrastructure. 💅

👑 Author 👑

Generated automatically by Doxygen for Coin from the source code. So technically no human wrote this, which is honestly so real of Doxygen. 😭

okay and the cute little sign-off: this is Version 4.0.10, dated Thu Jun 25 2026 00:00:00, and it's the SoSFShort(3) page from Coin. that's the whole thing, bestie — one short, so many feels. slay, hydrate, go set a value. 💖✨🎀🦋🌸💅
