🔥 Detailed Description 🔥

The SoVRMLCoordinate class is used to define 3D coordinates for shapes. no cap.

The detailed class documentation is taken verbatim from the VRML97 standard (ISO/IEC 14772-1:1997). It is copyright The Web3D Consortium, and is used by permission of the Consortium:

Coordinate {
  exposedField MFVec3f point  []      # (-inf, inf)
}

This node defines a set of 3D coordinates to be used in the coord field of vertex-based geometry nodes including SoVRMLIndexedFaceSet, SoVRMLIndexedLineSet, and SoVRMLPointSet. 🦋

bestie, this is the glow-up node. it's not out here rendering itself — it's the coordinate supply for the geometry girlies that actually draw stuff. periodt. 💅

🎀 Constructor & Destructor Documentation 🎀

💖 SoVRMLCoordinate::SoVRMLCoordinate (void ) 💖

Constructor. 🫶

💜 SoVRMLCoordinate::~SoVRMLCoordinate () [protected], [virtual] 💜

Destructor. 😭 protected and virtual, she goes out with dignity.

💅 Member Function Documentation 💅

okay bestie, this is the part where we meet all the lil methods that make this node actually do stuff. every single one, no skips, i promise 🫶

✨ getClassTypeId

SoType SoVRMLCoordinate::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

this static cutie hands you back the SoType object that's associated with objects of this class. that's it, that's the whole job 💖

✨ getTypeId

SoType SoVRMLCoordinate::getTypeId (void ) const [virtual]

she returns the type identification of an object derived from a class that inherits SoBase. what's it for? runtime type checking and "downward" casting, periodt. it's literally how the library figures out who's who at runtime 🔥

Implements SoBase.

✨ getFieldDataPtr

const SoFieldData ** SoVRMLCoordinate::getFieldDataPtr (void ) [static],
    [protected]

ngl bestie, this one is internal to the library — the manpage says it's "not likely to be of interest to the application programmer", so if you're just out here writing app code, this isn't your moment 🙈.

what it does: returns the SoFieldData class that holds all the info about the fields in this node.

✨ getFieldData

const SoFieldData * SoVRMLCoordinate::getFieldData (void ) const
    [protected],  [virtual]

gives you back a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. and listen — if there are no fields present, it returns NULL. that's the vibe check, don't forget it ⭐

Reimplemented from SoFieldContainer.

✨ initClass

void SoVRMLCoordinate::initClass (void ) [static]

no description given in the source, bestie — she's mysterious like that 💀. just the signature, standing there, iconic and unexplained.

✨ doAction

void SoVRMLCoordinate::doAction (SoAction * action) [virtual]

this one performs the typical operation of a node for any action. like, whatever action rolls up, this is the general handler doing its thing 🎀

Reimplemented from SoNode.

✨ GLRender

void SoVRMLCoordinate::GLRender (SoGLRenderAction * action) [virtual]

action method for the SoGLRenderAction. this gets called during rendering traversals ✨. any node that influences the rendering state in any way — or that wants to throw geometry primitives at OpenGL — overrides this method. main character behaviour, honestly 👑

Reimplemented from SoNode.

✨ getBoundingBox

void SoVRMLCoordinate::getBoundingBox (SoGetBoundingBoxAction * action)
    [virtual]

action method for the SoGetBoundingBoxAction. this one calculates the bounding box and center coordinates for the node, then modifies the values of the action so it encompasses the bounding box for this node — and shifts the center point for the scene more towards the one for this node 🌸.

also, heads up: nodes that influence how geometry nodes calculate their bounding box override this method too, so they can change the relevant state variables. teamwork, i guess 🦋

Reimplemented from SoNode.

✨ callback

void SoVRMLCoordinate::callback (SoCallbackAction * action) [virtual]

action method for SoCallbackAction. she simply updates the state according to how the node behaves for the render action, which means the application programmer can use the SoCallbackAction to extract information about the scene graph 💜. very "i'm just here to help" of her.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

✨ pick

void SoVRMLCoordinate::pick (SoPickAction * action) [virtual]

action method for SoPickAction. does the common processing for SoPickAction action instances. lowkey essential, highkey underrated 💅

Reimplemented from SoNode.

💖 point

SoMFVec3f SoVRMLCoordinate::point

the coordinates, bestie. empty by default. so if you want actual points in there, that's on you 🌈
