👑 Constructor & Destructor Documentation 👑

🌸 SoTypeList::SoTypeList (void ) [inline]

Default constructor. the no-args classic. the blank canvas. main character energy fr fr. ✨

💜 SoTypeList::SoTypeList (const int sizehint) [inline]

This constructor initializes the internal allocated size for the list to sizehint. heads up bestie — the list will still initially contain zero items. she's just reserving the space, not filling it. no cap. 🙈

See also

• SbList::SbList(const int sizehint)

🎀 SoTypeList::SoTypeList (const SoTypeList & l) [inline]

Copy constructor. she's copying her whole personality and honestly? slay. 💖

🔥 Member Function Documentation 🔥

🌟 void SoTypeList::append (const SoType type)

Append item to the end of the list. line up, babe, you're going to the back. 🫶

Automatically allocates more items internally if needed. she grows when she needs to, lowkey iconic. 🌱

Overloaded from parent to accept an SoType pointer argument.

See also

• SbPList::append()

💫 int SoTypeList::find (const SoType type) const

Return index of first occurrence of item in the list, or -1 if item is not present. so if she's not there, you get a -1 and that's your sign to move on. 😭

Overloaded from parent to accept an SoType argument.

See also

• SbPList::find()

🌈 void SoTypeList::insert (const SoType type, const int insertbefore)

Insert item at index insertbefore. cutting the line, but make it legal. 💅

warning bestie: insertbefore should not be larger than the current number of items in the list. don't do it. i'm literally begging. 💀

Overloaded from parent to accept an SoType argument.

See also

• SbPList::insert()

🧚 SoType SoTypeList::operator[] (const int idx) const

Returns element at index. girlypop is grabbing exactly what you asked for. ✨

Will automatically expand the size of the internal array if index is outside the current bounds of the list. The values of any additional pointers are then set to NULL. so yeah, she'll stretch for you, but the new spots are just NULL until you fill them. 🕳️

Overloaded from parent to return an SoType instance.

See also

• SbPList::operator[]()

🍓 void SoTypeList::set (const int index, const SoType item)

Index operator to set element at index. Does not expand array bounds if index is outside the list. nope, no growing this time — she stays exactly the size she is. 🙅‍♀️

Overloaded from parent to accept an SoType argument.

• SbPList::set()
