Inheritance diagram for SoWWWInline:

List of all members.

## Detailed Description

The SoWWWInline class is a node used to include data from an URL.

If the URL is not a local file, the application is responsible for supplying a callback to a function which will fetch the data of the URL.

As long as no data has been imported, the scenegraph representation of the node will be that of a bounding box enclosing the geometry we expect to fetch from the URL. The application is naturally also responsible for specifying the expected dimensions of the geometry.

  Inventor 2.1

## Member Function Documentation

void SoWWWInline::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 SoNode.

void SoWWWInline::setFullURLName | ( | const SbString & | url | ) |

| If the SoWWWInline::name field specifies a relative URL, use this method to name the complete URL.

const SbString & SoWWWInline::getFullURLName | ( | void |  | ) |

| If a full URL has been set with the SoWWWInline::setFullURLName() method, return it. If not, returns the value of the SoWWWInline::name field.

SoGroup * SoWWWInline::copyChildren | ( | void |  | ) | const

| Returns a subgraph with a deep copy of the children of this node.

void SoWWWInline::requestURLData | ( | void |  | ) |

| Start requesting URL data. This might trigger a callback to the callback set in SoWWWInline::setFetchURLCallBack().

SbBool SoWWWInline::isURLDataRequested | ( | void |  | ) | const

| Returns `TRUE` if SoWWWInline::requestURLData() has been called without being canceled by SoWWWInline::cancelURLData().

SbBool SoWWWInline::isURLDataHere | ( | void |  | ) | const

| Return `TRUE` if the current child data has been read from file an URL.

void SoWWWInline::cancelURLDataRequest | ( | void |  | ) |

| Can be used to signal that URL loading has been canceled. You should use this method if you intend to request URL data more than once.

void SoWWWInline::setChildData | ( | SoNode * | urldata | ) |

| Manually set up the subgraph for this node.

SoNode * SoWWWInline::getChildData | ( | void |  | ) | const

| Returns the child data for this node. This can be data read from a file, from an URL, from the contents of SoWWWInline::alternateRep or that was manually set with SoWWWInline::setChildData().

SoChildList * SoWWWInline::getChildren | ( | void |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

| Returns the child list with the child data for this node. Reimplemented from SoNode.

void SoWWWInline::setFetchURLCallBack | ( | SoWWWInlineFetchURLCB * | f,
|  | void * | userdata
| ) | `[static]`

| Sets the URL fetch callback. This will be used in SoWWWInline::readInstance() or when the user calls SoWWWInline::requestURLData().

void SoWWWInline::setBoundingBoxVisibility | ( | BboxVisibility | b | ) | `[static]`

| Sets the bounding box visibility strategy.

SoWWWInline::BboxVisibility SoWWWInline::getBoundingBoxVisibility | ( | void |  | ) | `[static]`

| Returns the bounding box visibility.

void SoWWWInline::setBoundingBoxColor | ( | SbColor & | c | ) | `[static]`

| Sets the bounding box color.

const SbColor & SoWWWInline::getBoundingBoxColor | ( | void |  | ) | `[static]`

| Returns the bounding box color.

void SoWWWInline::setReadAsSoFile | ( | SbBool | onoff | ) | `[static]`

| Sets whether children should be read from a local file, in the same manner as SoFile children are read. If this is set to `TRUE`, the URL must point to a file on the local file system, as can be accessed by the standard C library fopen() call.

SbBool SoWWWInline::getReadAsSoFile | ( | void |  | ) | `[static]`

Returns if children should be read from local files.

  setReadAsSoFile()

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

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

void SoWWWInline::doActionOnKidsOrBox | ( | SoAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

| This method should probably have been private in OIV. It is obsoleted in Coin. Let us know if you need it.

void SoWWWInline::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 SoNode.

void SoWWWInline::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 SoNode.

void SoWWWInline::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 SoNode.

void SoWWWInline::getMatrix | ( | SoGetMatrixAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

| Action method for SoGetMatrixAction. Updates action by accumulating with the transformation matrix of this node (if any). Reimplemented from SoNode.

void SoWWWInline::handleEvent | ( | SoHandleEventAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

| Action method for SoHandleEventAction. Inspects the event data from action, and processes it if it is something which this node should react to. Nodes influencing relevant state variables for how event handling is done also overrides this method. Reimplemented from SoNode.

void SoWWWInline::search | ( | SoSearchAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

Action method for SoSearchAction.

Compares the search criteria from the action to see if this node is a match. Searching is done by matching up all criteria set up in the SoSearchAction -- if any of the requested criteria is a miss, the search is not deemed successful for the node.

See also:
  SoSearchAction

Reimplemented from SoNode.

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

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

void SoWWWInline::getPrimitiveCount | ( | SoGetPrimitiveCountAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

| Action method for the SoGetPrimitiveCountAction. Calculates the number of triangle, line segment and point primitives for the node and adds these to the counters of the action. Nodes influencing how geometry nodes calculates their primitive count also overrides this method to change the relevant state variables. Reimplemented from SoNode.

void SoWWWInline::audioRender | ( | SoAudioRenderAction * | action | ) | `[virtual]`

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

void SoWWWInline::addBoundingBoxChild | ( | SbVec3f | center,
|  | SbVec3f | size
| ) | `[protected, virtual]`

| Convenience method that extends the current bounding box to include the box specified by center and size.

SbBool SoWWWInline::readInstance | ( | SoInput * | in,
|  | unsigned short | flags
| ) | `[protected, virtual]`

This method is mainly intended for internal use during file import operations.

It reads a definition of an instance from the input stream in. The input stream state points to the start of a serialized / persistant representation of an instance of this class type.

`TRUE` or `FALSE` is returned, depending on if the instantiation and configuration of the new object of this class type went ok or not. The import process should be robust and handle corrupted input streams by returning `FALSE`.

flags is used internally during binary import when reading user extension nodes, group nodes or engines.

Reimplemented from SoNode.

void SoWWWInline::copyContents | ( | const SoFieldContainer * | fromfc,
|  | SbBool | copyconnections
| ) | `[protected, virtual]`

Makes a deep copy of all data of from into this instance, except external scenegraph references if copyconnections is `FALSE`.

This is the protected method that should be overridden by extension node / engine / dragger / whatever subclasses which needs to account for internal data that are not handled automatically.

Note that for simply copying e.g. a node from application code, it should be sufficient to do:

      SoNode * mynewnode = templatenode->copy();

Make sure that when you override the copyContents() method in your extension class that you also make it call upwards to it's parent superclass in the inheritance hierarchy, as copyContents() in for instance SoNode and SoFieldContainer does important work. It should go something like this:

      void
      MyCoinExtensionNode::copyContents(const SoFieldContainer * from,
                                        SbBool copyconnections)
      {
        // let parent superclasses do their thing (copy fields, copy
        // instance name, etc etc)
        SoNode::copyContents(from, copyconnections);

        // [..then copy internal data..]
      }

Reimplemented from SoNode.
