👑 Detailed Description 👑

SoSFVec4b is a container for an SbVec4b vector. That's the whole vibe, no cap.

This field is used where nodes, engines or other field containers need to store a single vector with four elements. One vector. Four elements. Iconic. 💅

⚠️ Bestie, heads up: 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 out here trying to run it on ancient SGI code, it's giving "not today". 😭

🔥 Member Function Documentation 🔥

🦋 void * SoSFVec4b::createInstance (void ) [static]

Okay so this API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer. So like, don't worry about it bestie 🙈

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

💜 SoType SoSFVec4b::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

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

✨ SoType SoSFVec4b::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 SoSFVec4b::copyFrom (const SoField & f) [virtual]

Copy value(s) from f into this field. f must be of the same type as this field. (fr fr, same type or it's a whole situation.)

Implements SoField.

🌸 SbBool SoSFVec4b::isSame (const SoField & f) const [virtual]

Check for equal type and value(s). It's the vibe check for fields 💅

Implements SoField.

🌈 void SoSFVec4b::initClass (void ) [static]

Internal method called upon initialization of the library (from SoDB::init()) to set up the type system. She's doing behind-the-scenes main character work 👑

⭐ void SoSFVec4b::setValue (int8_t x, int8_t y, int8_t z, int8_t w)

Set value of vector. Four ints, four slots, slay 🦋

🧚 void SoSFVec4b::setValue (const int8_t xyzw[4])

Set value of vector. This one takes the array of 4 and eats, no crumbs 🍓
