Detailed Description

The SoTabBoxManip class wraps an SoTabBoxDragger.

The SoTabBoxManip provides a convenient mechanism for the application programmer for setting up an SoTabBoxDragger in the scene connected to the relevant fields of an SoTransform node.

The interaction from the end-user with the manipulator will then automatically influence the transformation matrix for the geometry following it in the scenegraph.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

  SoTabBoxManip::SoTabBoxManip (void)
Constructor sets us up with an SoTabBoxDragger for manipulating a transformation.

  SoTabBoxManip::~SoTabBoxManip (void) [protected], [virtual]
Protected destructor. (SoHandleBoxManip is automatically destructed when it's reference count goes to 0.)

Member Function Documentation

  SoType SoTabBoxManip::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.

Reimplemented from SoTransformManip.

  const SoFieldData * SoTabBoxManip::getFieldData (void) const [protected], [virtual]
Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. If no fields are present, returns NULL.
