## Member Function Documentation

void SoVRMLVertexShape::initClass | ( | void |  | ) | `[static]`

| Sets up initialization for data common to all instances of this class, like submitting necessary information to the Coin type system. Reimplemented from SoVRMLGeometry. Reimplemented in SoVRMLIndexedFaceSet, and SoVRMLIndexedShape.

void SoVRMLVertexShape::doAction | ( | SoAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

| This function performs the typical operation of a node for any action. Reimplemented from SoNode.

void SoVRMLVertexShape::GLRender | ( | SoGLRenderAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

| Action method for the SoGLRenderAction. This is called during rendering traversals. Nodes influencing the rendering state in any way or who wants to throw geometry primitives at OpenGL overrides this method. Reimplemented from SoShape. Reimplemented in SoVRMLIndexedFaceSet.

void SoVRMLVertexShape::getBoundingBox | ( | SoGetBoundingBoxAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

| Action method for the SoGetBoundingBoxAction. Calculates bounding box and center coordinates for node and modifies the values of the action to encompass the bounding box for this node and to shift the center point for the scene more towards the one for this node. Nodes influencing how geometry nodes calculates their bounding box also overrides this method to change the relevant state variables. Reimplemented from SoShape.

void SoVRMLVertexShape::callback | ( | SoCallbackAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

| Action method for SoCallbackAction. Simply updates the state according to how the node behaves for the render action, so the application programmer can use the SoCallbackAction for extracting information about the scene graph. Reimplemented from SoShape.

void SoVRMLVertexShape::pick | ( | SoPickAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

| Action method for SoPickAction. Does common processing for SoPickAction action instances. Reimplemented from SoNode.

void SoVRMLVertexShape::notify | ( | SoNotList * | list | ) | `[virtual]`

| Notifies all auditors for this instance when changes are made. Reimplemented from SoVRMLGeometry. Reimplemented in SoVRMLIndexedShape.

SbBool SoVRMLVertexShape::shouldGLRender | ( | SoGLRenderAction * | action | ) | `[protected, virtual]`

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

SoNormalCache * SoVRMLVertexShape::generateAndReadLockNormalCache | ( | SoState *const | state | ) | `[protected]`

| Convenience method that can be used by subclasses to return or create a normal cache. If the current cache is not valid, it takes care of unrefing the old cache and pushing and popping the state to create element dependencies when creating the new cache. When returning from this method, the normal cache will be read locked, and the caller should call readUnlockNormalCache() when the normals in the cache is no longer needed. 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

void SoVRMLVertexShape::getVertexData | ( | SoState * | state,
|  | const SoCoordinateElement *& | coords,
|  | const SbVec3f *& | normals,
|  | const SbBool | neednormals
| ) | `[protected]`

| Convenience method that returns the current coordinate and normal element. This method is not part of the OIV API.

void SoVRMLVertexShape::readLockNormalCache | ( | void |  | ) | `[protected]`

| Read lock the normal cache. This method should be called before fetching the normal cache (using getNormalCache()). When the cached normals are no longer needed, readUnlockNormalCache() must be called. It is also possible to use generateAndReadLockNormalCache(). This function is an extension for Coin, and it is not available in the original SGI Open Inventor v2.1 API. See also: readUnlockNormalCache() Since: Coin 2.0

void SoVRMLVertexShape::readUnlockNormalCache | ( | void |  | ) | `[protected]`

| Read unlock the normal cache. Should be called when the read-locked cached normals are no longer needed. This function is an extension for Coin, and it is not available in the original SGI Open Inventor v2.1 API. See also: readLockNormalCache() Since: Coin 2.0
