Detailed Description

The SoShape class is the superclass for geometry shapes.

The node types which have actual geometry to render inherits this class. For convenience, the SoShape class contains various common code used by the subclasses.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ TriangleShape

enum SoShape::TriangleShape

This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ SoShape()

SoShape::SoShape ( void )

protected

Constructor.

◆ ~SoShape()

SoShape::~SoShape ( )

protectedvirtual

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ getTypeId()

SoType SoShape::getTypeId ( void ) const

virtual

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoBase. This is used for run-time type checking and "downward" casting.

Usage example:

void foo(SoNode * node)
{
  if (node->getTypeId() == SoFile::getClassTypeId()) {
    SoFile * filenode = (SoFile *)node;  // safe downward cast, knows the type
  }
}

For application programmers wanting to extend the library with new nodes, engines, nodekits, draggers or others: this method needs to be overridden in all subclasses. This is typically done as part of setting up the full type system for extension classes, which is usually accomplished by using the pre-defined macros available through for instance Inventor/nodes/SoSubNode.h (SO_NODE_INIT_CLASS and SO_NODE_CONSTRUCTOR for node classes), Inventor/engines/SoSubEngine.h (for engine classes) and so on.

For more information on writing Coin extensions, see the class documentation of the toplevel superclasses for the various class groups.

◆ getFieldData()

const SoFieldData * SoShape::getFieldData ( void ) const

protectedvirtual

Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. If no fields are present, returns NULL.

Reimplemented from SoFieldContainer.

Reimplemented in SoVRMLElevationGrid, SoVertexShape, SoVRMLVertexShape, SoVRMLIndexedFaceSet, SoImage, SoText3, SoVRMLIndexedLineSet, SoVRMLText, SoIndexedFaceSet, SoIndexedLineSet, SoIndexedTriangleStripSet, SoVRMLExtrusion, SoAsciiText, SoIndexedNurbsCurve, SoIndexedNurbsSurface, SoIndexedPointSet, SoNurbsCurve, SoNurbsSurface, SoVRMLVertexPoint, SoCube, SoFaceSet, SoIndexedMarkerSet, SoIndexedShape, SoText2, SoVRMLCone, SoVRMLCylinder, SoVRMLGeometry, SoVRMLVertexLine, SoCone, SoCylinder, SoNonIndexedShape, SoVRMLBox, SoVRMLIndexedLine, SoVRMLIndexedShape, SoVRMLPointSet, SoVRMLSphere, SoLineSet, SoMarkerSet, SoPointSet, SoQuadMesh, SoSphere, and SoTriangleStripSet.

◆ affectsState()

SbBool SoShape::affectsState ( void ) const

virtual

Returns TRUE if the node could have any effect on the state during traversal.

If it returns FALSE, no data in the traversal-state will change from the pre-traversal state to the post-traversal state. The SoSeparator node will for instance return FALSE, as it pushes and pops the state before and after traversal of its children. All SoShape nodes will also return FALSE, as just pushing out geometry data to the rendering engine won't affect the actual rendering state.

The default method returns TRUE, on a "better safe than sorry" philosophy.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

◆ notify()

void SoShape::notify ( SoNotList * l )

virtual

Notifies all auditors for this instance when changes are made.

◆ getBoundingBox()

void SoShape::getBoundingBox ( SoGetBoundingBoxAction * action )

virtual

Reimplemented from SoNode.

Reimplemented in SoVRMLVertexShape, SoVRMLVertexLine, and SoVRMLVertexPoint.

◆ computeBBox()

void SoShape::computeBBox	(	SoAction *	action,
		SbBox3f &	box,
		SbVec3f &	center
	)

pure virtual

The bounding box and center point should be calculated and returned in the local coordinate system.

The method implements action behavior for shape nodes for SoGetBoundingBoxAction. It is invoked from SoShape::getBoundingBox(). (Subclasses should not override SoNode::getBoundingBox().)

◆ getBoundingBoxCache()

const SoBoundingBoxCache * SoShape::getBoundingBoxCache ( void ) const

Return the bounding box cache for this shape. It might return NULL if no bounding box cache has been created. If not NULL, the caller must check if the cache is valid before using it. This can be done using SoCache::isValid().

Since: Coin 2.0

◆ getComplexityValue()

◆ createTriangleDetail()

		const SoPrimitiveVertex *	v1,
		const SoPrimitiveVertex *	v2,
		const SoPrimitiveVertex *	v3,
		SoPickedPoint *	pp
	)

protectedvirtual

Will create triangle detail for a SoPickedPoint. This method will only be called internally, when generatePrimitives() is used for picking (SoShape::rayPick() is not overridden).

This method returns NULL in Open Inventor, and subclasses will need to override this method to create details for a SoPickedPoint.

This is not necessary with Coin. Of course, if you choose to override it, it will work in the same way as Open Inventor.

For this to work, you must supply a face or line detail when generating primitives. If you supply NULL for the detail argument in SoShape::beginShape(), you'll have to override this method.

Reimplemented in SoText3, SoVRMLExtrusion, SoIndexedNurbsSurface, SoAsciiText, and SoNurbsSurface.

◆ beginShape()

void SoShape::beginShape	(	SoAction *const	action,
		const TriangleShape	shapetype,
		SoDetail *const	detail = `NULL`
	)

protected

This method is used to generate primitives for a shape. It's typically called from a node's generatePrimitives() method. If you have your own shape and want to write a generatePrimitives() method for that shape, it's probably a good idea to take a peek in the generatePrimitives() method for a similar shape in Coin.

generatePrimitives() can contain several beginShape()/endShape() sequences. shapeVertex() is used for each vertex between beginShape() and endShape(). For instance, to generate primitives for a triangle you'd do something like this:

SoPrimitiveVertex vertex;

this->beginShape(action, SoShape::POLYGON);
vertex.setPoint(SbVec3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f));
this->shapeVertex(&vertex);
vertex.setPoint(SbVec3f(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f));
this->shapeVertex(&vertex);
vertex.setPoint(SbVec3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f));
this->shapeVertex(&vertex);
this->endShape();

Note that the SoPrimitiveVertex instance can simply be placed on the stack and not allocated. SoShape will copy the needed information when you call shapeVertex().

Before calling shapeVertex(), you can set extra information for the SoPrimitiveVertex, including normal, material index, and texture coordinates.

This method is slightly different from its counterpart from the original Open Inventor library, as this method has an SoDetail as the last argument, and not an SoFaceDetail. This is because we accept more TriangleShape types, and the detail might be a SoFaceDetail or a SoLineDetail. There is no use sending in a SoPointDetail, as nothing will be done with it.

◆ shapeVertex()

void SoShape::shapeVertex ( const SoPrimitiveVertex *const v )

protected

This method is used while generating primitives for a shape. See beginShape() for more details.

See also: beginShape(), endShape()

◆ endShape()

void SoShape::endShape ( void )

protected

This method is used while generating primitives for a shape. See beginShape() for more details.

See also: beginShape(), shapeVertex()

◆ generateVertex() [1/2]

void SoShape::generateVertex	(	SoPrimitiveVertex *const	pv,
		const SbVec3f &	point,
		const SbBool	usetexfunc,
		const SoMultiTextureCoordinateElement *const	tce,
		const float	s,
		const float	t,
		const SbVec3f &	normal
	)

protected

Convenience function which sets up an SoPrimitiveVertex, and sends it using the SoShape::shapeVertex() function. 2D version

◆ generateVertex() [2/2]

void SoShape::generateVertex	(	SoPrimitiveVertex *const	pv,
		const SbVec3f &	point,
		const SbBool	usetexfunc,
		const SoMultiTextureCoordinateElement *const	tce,
		const float	s,
		const float	t,
		const float	r,
		const SbVec3f &	normal
	)

protected

Convenience function which sets up an SoPrimitiveVertex, and sends it using the SoShape::shapeVertex() function. 3D version.

This function is an extension for Coin, and it is not available in the original SGI Open Inventor v2.1 API.

Since: Coin 2.0

◆ startVertexArray()

SbBool SoShape::startVertexArray	(	SoGLRenderAction *	action,
		const SoCoordinateElement *	coords,
		const SbVec3f *	pervertexnormals,
		const SbBool	texpervertex,
		const SbBool	colorpervertex
	)

protected

Convenience method that enables vertex arrays and/or VBOs Returns TRUE if VBO is used.

See also: finishVertexArray()

Since: Coin 3.0

◆ finishVertexArray()

void SoShape::finishVertexArray	(	SoGLRenderAction *	action,
		const SbBool	vbo,
		const SbBool	normpervertex,
		const SbBool	texpervertex,
		const SbBool	colorpervertex
	)

protected

Should be called after rendering with vertex arrays. This method will disable arrays and VBOs enabled in the startVertexArray() function.
