Detailed Description

The SoLazyElement class is used to handle material and shape properties. So[GL]LazyElement is, as the name implies, an element that is lazy about sending things to OpenGL. The changes are not sent to OpenGL until SoGLLazyElement::send() is called. This means that you can change the state of certain attributes several times, but the state will only be sent to OpenGL once.

When creating a new shape node in Coin, it's a common operation to modify the OpenGL diffuse color. There are several ways you can send the color to OpenGL. If you're not going to use the color outside your node, you can just as well send it using plain OpenGL. You can also set the color in the element, and then force a send by using SoGLLazyElement::send(state, SoLazyElement::DIFFUSE_MASK).

However, when creating an extension shape node, it's always recommended to create an instance of SoMaterialBundle on the stack. If this instance is created after you update SoLazyElement with a new color, the new color will be sent to OpenGL when you call SoMaterialBundle::sendFirst(). This call will also update all other lazy OpenGL state, and it is actually required to either use SoMaterialBundle::sendFirst() or call SoGLLazyElement::send(state, SoLazyElement::ALL_MASK) when creating a shape node.

If you decide to send the color to OpenGL using glColor*(), you should notify SoGLLazyElement about this by calling SoGLLazyElement::reset(state, SoLazyElement::DIFFUSE_MASK). This will notify SoGLLazyElement that the current OpenGL diffuse color is unknown.

  SoLazyElement::~SoLazyElement () [protected]
Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

  SoType SoLazyElement::getClassTypeId (void) [static]
This static method returns the SoType object associated with objects of this class.

  int SoLazyElement::getClassStackIndex (void) [static]
This static method returns the state stack index for the class.

  void * SoLazyElement::createInstance (void) [static]
This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.
 Creates a new instance of the class type corresponding to the SoType object.

  void SoLazyElement::initClass (void) [static]
Initialize relevant common data for all instances, like the type system.

  void SoLazyElement::init (SoState * state) [virtual]
This function initializes the element type in the given SoState. It is called for the first element of each enabled element type in SoState objects.

Reimplemented from SoElement.

Reimplemented in SoGLLazyElement.

  void SoLazyElement::push (SoState * state) [virtual]
This method is called every time a new element is required in one of the stacks. This happens when a writable element is requested, using SoState::getElement() or indirectly SoElement::getElement(), and the depth of the current element is less than the state depth.

Override this method if your element needs to copy data from the previous top of stack. The push() method is called on the new element, and the previous element can be found using SoElement::getNextInStack().

  SbBool SoLazyElement::matches (const SoElement * element) const [virtual]
Will always return TRUE in Coin.

Implements SoElement.

  SoElement * SoLazyElement::copyMatchInfo (void) const [virtual]
Just returns NULL in Coin.

Implements SoElement.

  void SoLazyElement::setToDefault (SoState * state) [static]
Internal function used for resetting the OpenGL state before FBO rendering.
