Default constructor.

Copy constructor.

Copy constructor taking a pointer value as an argument. Handles NULL pointers by behaving like the default constructor.

Constructor. Takes an indication on the number of fields which should be stored, to make sure the memory handling is efficient.

Destructor.

Add a new field to our internal list.

The name will be stored along with an pointer offset between base and field, which will be valid for all instances of the class type of base.

Copy fields from container from to container to. If copyconnections is TRUE, we'll also copy the connections field from has made.

If you think the method signature is a bit strange, you're correct. This should really have been a static method (the owner this instance of the method isn't used at all, due to how the internal representation of field template list are stored), but for unknown reasons this is a dynamic method in Open Inventor. So also in Coin, to keep compatibility.

Returns number of fields contained within this instance.

Returns the name of the field at index.

Returns a pointer to the field at index within the object instance.

Returns the internal index value of field in fc. If field is not part of fc, returns -1.

Either adds a new enum set (with an initial member), or adds a new value member to an existing enum set.

Returns the names and values of enumeration entry with the enumname. The number of (name, value) pairs available in the enumeration is returned in num.

Read field data from the in stream for fields belonging to object. Returns TRUE if everything went ok, or FALSE if any error conditions occurs.

erroronunknownfield decides whether or not FALSE should be returned if a name identifier not recognized as a fieldname of object is encountered. Note that erroronunknownfield should be FALSE if object is a container with child objects, otherwise the code will fail upon the first child name specification.

If notbuiltin is TRUE on return, object is an unknown node or engine type. Unknown nodes are recognized by the fields keyword first in their file format definition, and unknown engines by the inputs keyword.

Find field fieldname in object, and if it is available, set foundname to TRUE and try to read the field specification from in. If foundname is set to TRUE, the return value says whether or not the field specification could be read without any problems.

If fieldname is not part of object, returns FALSE with foundname also set to FALSE.

Write to out field names and field values for the fields of object.

Copy contents of src into this instance.

If there was any data set up in this instance before the method was called, the old data is removed first.

Note that this only copies the field set template specification from src, not actual field contents. For copying field contents, see the SoFieldData::overlay() method.

Compares c1 and c2 to see if they have the same field data set and if the fields of c1 have the same values as the fields of c2.

Field connections are not considered (i.e. we will return TRUE if the values of the fields of c1 are equal to the fields of c2, even if they differ in how they have made connections to other fields).

If you think the method signature is a bit strange, you're correct. This should really have been a static method (the owner this instance of the method isn't used at all, due to how the internal representation of field template list are stored), but for unknown reasons this is a dynamic method in Open Inventor. So also in Coin, to keep compatibility.

Reads a set of field specifications from in for an unknown nodeclass type, in the form '[ FIELDCLASS FIELDNAME, FIELDCLASS FIELDNAME, ... ]'.

numdescriptionsexpected is used for binary format import to know how many descriptions should be parsed.

If readfieldvalues is TRUE (the default), the field initial value is expected after the field name in the SoInput stream.

Write a set of field specifications to out for an unknown nodeclass type, in the form '[ FIELDCLASS FIELDNAME, FIELDCLASS FIELDNAME, ... ]'.
