Detailed Description¶

The SoVertexAttributeBinding class is a node for setting up how vertex attributes are mapped to shapes.

See also

SoVertexAttribute

The material binding specified in nodes of this type decides how the vertex attribute values of SoVertexAttribute nodes are mapped on the builtin geometry shape nodes.

Here is a simple usage example:

#Inventor V2.1 ascii
ShaderProgram {


    shaderObject [ 


                  VertexShader {


                     sourceProgram 'vertex.glsl'


                  }


               ]


 }


 Coordinate3 {


    point [ 0 0 0, 1 0 0, 1 1 0 ]


 }


 VertexAttributeBinding { value OVERALL }


 VertexAttribute {


    typeName 'SoMFVec3f'


    name 'color'


    values [ 1.0 0.0 0.0 ]


 }


 IndexedFaceSet {


    coordIndex [ 0, 1, 2, -1 ]


 }

The vertex shader (vertex.glsl):

attribute vec3 color;
void main(void)
{


  gl_Position = ftransform();


  fragcolor = color;
}

With SoVertexAttributeBinding::value set to PER_VERTEX_INDEXED above, the attribute indices will be taken from the SoIndexedFaceSet::coordIndex field when rendering.

If SoVertexAttributeBinding::value is set to PER_VERTEX, attributes will be fetched in a monotonically increasing manner from the SoVertexAttribute::value field, starting at index 0.

If SoVertexAttributeBinding::value is set to OVERALL, the first attribute value from SoVertexAttribute::value will be sent to OpenGL before rendering.

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS:

VertexAttributeBinding {


    value PER_VERTEX_INDEXED
}

Member Enumeration Documentation¶

enum SoVertexAttributeBinding::Binding¶

Enumeration of available types of material binding.

Enumerator

OVERALL: Apply the same material to the complete shape.
PER_VERTEX: Get a new material from the pool of material values for each polygon, line or point vertex of the shape.

Attributes are fetched from index 0 and onwards, incrementing the index into the attribute pool by 1 for each new vertex of the shape node.

PER_VERTEX_INDEXED: Get a new attribute from the pool of attribute values for each polygon, line or point vertex of the shape.

Attributes are fetched by the index value settings of the shape.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation¶

SoVertexAttributeBinding::SoVertexAttributeBinding (void)¶

Constructor.

SoVertexAttributeBinding::~SoVertexAttributeBinding () [protected], [virtual]¶

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation¶

SoType SoVertexAttributeBinding::getTypeId (void) const [virtual]¶

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

Usage example:

void foo(SoNode * node)
{


  if (node->getTypeId() == SoFile::getClassTypeId()) {


    SoFile * filenode = (SoFile *)node;  // safe downward cast, knows the type


  }
}

For application programmers wanting to extend the library with new nodes, engines, nodekits, draggers or others: this method needs to be overridden in all subclasses. This is typically done as part of setting up the full type system for extension classes, which is usually accomplished by using the pre-defined macros available through for instance Inventor/nodes/SoSubNode.h (SO_NODE_INIT_CLASS and SO_NODE_CONSTRUCTOR for node classes), Inventor/engines/SoSubEngine.h (for engine classes) and so on.

For more information on writing Coin extensions, see the class documentation of the toplevel superclasses for the various class groups.

Implements SoBase.

const SoFieldData * SoVertexAttributeBinding::getFieldData (void) const [protected], [virtual]¶

Returns a pointer to the class-wide field data storage object for this instance. If no fields are present, returns NULL.
