man SoQtObject (Fonctions bibliothèques) -

NAME

SoQtObject -

SYNOPSIS



#include <Inventor/Qt/SoQtObject.h>

Inherited by SoQtComponent, and SoQtDevice.

Detailed Description

The SoQtObject class is the common superclass for all SoQt component classes.

The purpose of making this class the superclass of all SoQt device, component and viewer classes is to be able to do run-time type checking of the SoQt objects.

You can place the macro SOQT_OBJECT_HEADER(classname,parentname) within a class definition header for SoQt extension components to automatically make the necessary definitions for setting up a run-time type system for your extension classes: 

  #ifndef MYSPECIALVIEWER_H
  #define MYSPECIALVIEWER_H

class MySpecialViewer : public SoQtExaminerViewer { SOQT_OBJECT_HEADER(MySpecialViewer, SoQtExaminerViewer); // [rest of class definition follows] };

#endif // !MYSPECIALVIEWER_H

Then put the SOQT_OBJECT_SOURCE(classname) macro within the actual implementation sourcecode file to include the necessary code for the run-time type system: 

  #include <MySpecialViewer.h>

SOQT_OBJECT_SOURCE(MySpecialViewer);

// [rest of class implementation]

See also the documentation of the SoType class in Coin or Inventor.

Member Function Documentation

void SoQtObject::initClass (void) [static]

Sets up initialization for data common to all instances of this class, submitting necessary information to the internal SoQt type system.

SoType SoQtObject::getClassTypeId (void) [static]

This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class.

SoType SoQtObject::getTypeId (void) const [pure virtual]

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoQtObject. This is used for run-time type checking and 'downward' casting.

Usage example: 

  void foo(SoQtViewer * comp)
  {
    if (comp->getTypeId() == SoQtExaminerViewer::getClassTypeId()) {
      // safe downward cast, knows the type
      SoQtExaminerViewer * exviewer = (SoQtExaminerViewer *)comp;
    }
    else if (comp->getTypeId().isOfType(SoQtFlyViewer::getClassTypeId())) {
      // safe downward cast, knows the type
      SoQtFlyViewer * flyviewer = (SoQtFlyViewer *)comp;
      // then something else
    }
  }

SbBool SoQtObject::isOfType (SoType type) const

Returns TRUE if the type of this object is either of the same type or inherited from type.

void SoQtObject::init (void) [static]

Initialize the type system of SoQtObject, all SoQt device classes and all SoQt components (including viewers).
