## Member Function Documentation

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

| Initialization of static variables.

int SoNodekitCatalog::getNumEntries | ( | void |  | ) | const

| Returns total number of entries in the catalog.

int SoNodekitCatalog::getPartNumber | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns part number in catalog with name. If no part exists with name, returns `SO_CATALOG_NAME_NOT_FOUND`.

const SbName & SoNodekitCatalog::getName | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Given the part number, return name of that part.

SoType SoNodekitCatalog::getType | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Given the part number, return type.

| Given the part name, return type.

SoType SoNodekitCatalog::getDefaultType | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Given part number, return default type of part.

SoType SoNodekitCatalog::getDefaultType | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Given part name, return default type of part.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::isNullByDefault | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns `TRUE` if the part is empty by default, otherwise `FALSE`.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::isNullByDefault | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns `TRUE` if part name is empty by default, otherwise `FALSE`.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::isLeaf | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns `TRUE` if the part is not a parent for any other parts in the nodekit catalog.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::isLeaf | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns `TRUE` if the part name is not a parent for any other parts in the nodekit catalog.

const SbName & SoNodekitCatalog::getParentName | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns name of parent of part. If part doesn't have a parent, the empty string is returned.

const SbName & SoNodekitCatalog::getParentName | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns name of parent of the part. If name doesn't have a parent, the empty string is returned.

int SoNodekitCatalog::getParentPartNumber | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns part number of given part's parent. If part doesn't have a parent, SO_CATALOG_NAME_NOT_FOUND is returned.

int SoNodekitCatalog::getParentPartNumber | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns part number of given part's parent. If name doesn't have a parent, SO_CATALOG_NAME_NOT_FOUND is returned.

const SbName & SoNodekitCatalog::getRightSiblingName | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns name of right sibling of part. Returns the empty string if part doesn't have a right sibling.

const SbName & SoNodekitCatalog::getRightSiblingName | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns name of sibling of the part. Returns the empty string if name doesn't have a right sibling.

int SoNodekitCatalog::getRightSiblingPartNumber | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns part number of given part's sibling. Returns SO_CATALOG_NAME_NOT_FOUND if part doesn't have a right sibling.

int SoNodekitCatalog::getRightSiblingPartNumber | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns part number of given part's right sibling. Returns SO_CATALOG_NAME_NOT_FOUND if part doesn't have a right sibling.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::isList | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns `TRUE` if the given part is a list container.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::isList | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns `TRUE` if the given part is a list container.

SoType SoNodekitCatalog::getListContainerType | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns type of list container (SoGroup, SoSeparator, SoSwitch, etc) which part is.

SoType SoNodekitCatalog::getListContainerType | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns type of list container (SoGroup, SoSeparator, SoSwitch, etc) which the named part is.

const SoTypeList & SoNodekitCatalog::getListItemTypes | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns list of node types which are allowed to be children of the list container part.

const SoTypeList & SoNodekitCatalog::getListItemTypes | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns list of node types which are allowed to be children of the named list container part.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::isPublic | ( | int | part | ) | const

| Returns `TRUE` if part is visible and publicly available for queries and modifications, `FALSE` if part is hidden.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::isPublic | ( | const SbName & | name | ) | const

| Returns `TRUE` if the part is visible and publicly available for queries and modifications, `FALSE` if it is hidden.

SoNodekitCatalog * SoNodekitCatalog::clone | ( | SoType | type | ) | const

| Return a clone of this catalog. type will be used to set the type and defaulttype values of the toplevel `this` entry.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::addEntry | ( | const SbName & | name,
|  | SoType | type,
|  | SoType | defaulttype,
|  | SbBool | isdefaultnull,
|  | const SbName & | parentname,
|  | const SbName & | rightsiblingname,
|  | SbBool | islist,
|  | SoType | listcontainertype,
|  | SoType | listitemtype,
|  | SbBool | ispublic
| ) |

| Add a new entry to the catalog. Returns `TRUE` if add was ok.

void SoNodekitCatalog::addListItemType | ( | int | part,
|  | SoType | type
| ) |

| Add another allowable type for the given part. part must of course be a list container item.

void SoNodekitCatalog::addListItemType | ( | const SbName & | name,
|  | SoType | type
| ) |

| Add another allowable type for the name part. The part must of course be a list container.

void SoNodekitCatalog::narrowTypes | ( | const SbName & | name,
|  | SoType | newtype,
|  | SoType | newdefaulttype
| ) |

| Set the type and default type of a part to be subtypes of the old types. Useful for "narrowing" the specification of a nodekit which inherits the catalog of a more generic nodekit superclass.

void SoNodekitCatalog::setNullByDefault | ( | const SbName & | name,
|  | SbBool | nullbydefault
| ) |

| Change whether or not the part with the given name is created by default.

SbBool SoNodekitCatalog::recursiveSearch | ( | int | part,
|  | const SbName & | name,
|  | SoTypeList * | checked
| ) | const

| Recursively search part number in catalog for the name part. The checked SoTypeList is just used as a placeholder to remember which nodekit class catalogs have already been scanned (or are being scanned) during the recursion. You should normally just pass in an empty list.

void SoNodekitCatalog::printCheck | ( | void |  | ) | const

| Lists all catalog parts, which is useful for debugging.
