NAME

       SoSFEnum -

       The SoSFEnum class is a container for an enum value.

       This field is used where nodes, engines or other field containers needs
       to store one particular value out of an enumerated set.

Detailed Description

       The SoSFEnum class is a container for an enum value.

       This field is used where nodes, engines or other field containers needs
       to store one particular value out of an enumerated set.

       A field of this type stores its value to file as the symbolic name,
       rather than the actual integer value.

       SoSFEnum instances are initialized on an instance basis, usually in the
       constructor of the fieldcontainer with the macros
       SO_NODE_DEFINE_ENUM_VALUE(enumtype, symbolvalue) and
       SO_NODE_SET_SF_ENUM_TYPE(enumfield, enumtype) for nodes, or for
       engines; SO_ENGINE_DEFINE_ENUM_VALUE() and
       SO_ENGINE_SET_SF_ENUM_TYPE().

       Example initialization from the constructor of the SoCone class:

         SO_NODE_DEFINE_ENUM_VALUE(Part, SIDES);
         SO_NODE_DEFINE_ENUM_VALUE(Part, BOTTOM);
         SO_NODE_DEFINE_ENUM_VALUE(Part, ALL);
         SO_NODE_SET_SF_ENUM_TYPE(parts, Part);

   static SoType SoSFEnum::getClassTypeId (void) [static] Returns a unique
       type identifier for this field class.
       See also:
           getTypeId(), SoType

       Reimplemented from SoSField.

       Reimplemented in SoSFBitMask.

   virtual SoType SoSFEnum::getTypeId (void) const [virtual] Returns the type
       identification instance which uniquely identifies the Coin field class
       the object belongs to.

           getClassTypeId(), SoType

       Implements SoField.

       Reimplemented in SoSFBitMask.

   virtual void SoSFEnum::copyFrom (const SoField & f) [virtual] Copy value(s)
       from f into this field. f must be of the same type as this field.
       Implements SoField.

       Reimplemented in SoSFBitMask.

   virtual SbBool SoSFEnum::isSame (const SoField & f) const [virtual] Check
       for equal type and value(s).
       Implements SoField.

       Reimplemented in SoSFBitMask.

   void SoSFEnum::initClass (void) [static] Internal method called upon
       initialization of the library (from SoDB::init()) to set up the type
       system.
       Reimplemented from SoSField.

       Reimplemented in SoSFBitMask.

   void SoSFEnum::setValue (const SbName name) Set the value of this field by
       specifying an enumeration string value.
   void SoSFEnum::setEnums (const int num, const int * vals, const SbName *
       names) Makes a set of num enumeration names map to integer values,
       given by vals.
   int SoSFEnum::getNumEnums (void) const Returns the number of enum names the
       SoSFEnum object understands.
       Note that this API method is not part of the original SGI Inventor 2.1
       API, and is an extension specific to Coin.

       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

   int SoSFEnum::getEnum (const int idx, SbName & name) const Returns the
       value of the Nth enum this SoSFEnum object understands, and mutates
       name to contain the Nth enums name.

   SbBool SoSFEnum::findEnumValue (const SbName & name, int & val) [protected,
       virtual] Return in val the enumeration value which matches the given
       enumeration name.
       Returns TRUE if name is a valid enumeration string, otherwise FALSE.

   SbBool SoSFEnum::findEnumName (int valuearg, const SbName *& name) const
       [protected, virtual] Set the enumeration name which matches the given
       enumeration value.
       Returns TRUE if value is a valid enumeration value, otherwise FALSE.
