okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, because this is SoTempPath from the Coin manual — section 3, the library-calls section, iykyk. it's a whole class for storing temporary paths and it is literally the chillest little shortcut in the whole scene. let's get into it 💖

✨ NAME ✨

The SoTempPath class is used to store temporary paths.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <Inventor/misc/SoTempPath.h>

Inherits SoFullPath. so it's giving... full path energy, but make it temporary 💅

💖 Public Member Functions

  • SoTempPath(const int approxlength) — the constructor, obviously
  • void simpleAppend(SoNode *const node, const int index) — yeets a node onto the end
  • void replaceTail(SoNode *const node, const int index) — swaps out the tail

🔥 Detailed Description 🔥

The SoTempPath class is used to store temporary paths.

The path simply turns off auditing in the constructor, and leaves the user with the responsibility of keeping the path valid.

okay so real talk bestie — you are the one keeping this path valid. the class is not doing it for you. it turned auditing off and walked away. that's the whole deal, no cap 💀

🎀 Constructor & Destructor Documentation 🎀

SoTempPath::SoTempPath(const int approxlength)

Constructor. that's it, that's the whole thing 🫶

🌸 Member Function Documentation 🌸

void SoTempPath::simpleAppend(SoNode *const node, const int index)

Append a node (specified by node and parent child index) to the path. This method is only available in SoTempPath, since it will not consider auditing or hidden children.

void SoTempPath::replaceTail(SoNode *const node, const int index)

Replace the tail of this path. The node is specified by node and parent child index. This method is only available in SoTempPath, since it will not consider auditing or hidden children.
