## Detailed Description

The SoToVRML2Action class builds a new scene graph, using only VRML97/VRML2 nodes.

This action is used for converting a scene graph of VRML1/Coin nodes to a new scene graph using only VRML97/VRML2 nodes.

Due to the basic differences between VRML1/Coin and VRML2 (the latter does not really have a traversal state) the new scene graph will typically be somewhat larger. To minimize this effect the action tries to reuse nodes when possible.

VRML1 nodes will be converted to their equivalent VRML2 nodes, while Coin nodes with no VRML2 equivalent are converted to IndexedFaceSet. If the DrawStyle is POINTS, all geometry will be built using PointSet; if it is LINES IndexedLineSet is used.

Here's a basic usage example of this action, in the form of a complete, standalone program:

#include <Inventor/SoDB.h>
#include <Inventor/SoInteraction.h>
#include <Inventor/SoInput.h>
#include <Inventor/SoOutput.h>
#include <Inventor/actions/SoWriteAction.h>
#include <Inventor/actions/SoToVRML2Action.h>
#include <Inventor/nodes/SoSeparator.h>
#include <Inventor/VRMLnodes/SoVRMLGroup.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
SoDB::init();
SoInteraction::init();
SoInput in;
in.openFile(argv[1]);
printf("Reading...\n");
SoSeparator *root = SoDB::readAll(&in);
if (root) {
root->ref();
SbString hdr = in.getHeader();
in.closeFile();
printf("Converting...\n");
SoToVRML2Action tovrml2;
tovrml2.apply(root);
SoVRMLGroup *newroot = tovrml2.getVRML2SceneGraph();
newroot->ref();
root->unref();
printf("Writing...\n");
SoOutput out;
out.openFile("out.wrl");
out.setHeaderString("#VRML V2.0 utf8");
SoWriteAction wra(&out);
wra.apply(newroot);
out.closeFile();
newroot->unref();
}
return 0;
}

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## SoToVRML2Action()

SoToVRML2Action::SoToVRML2Action | ( | void |  | ) |

Constructor.

## ~SoToVRML2Action()

SoToVRML2Action::~SoToVRML2Action | ( | void |  | ) |

virtual

The destructor.

## Member Function Documentation

## getTypeId()

SoType SoToVRML2Action::getTypeId | ( | void |  | ) | const

virtual

Returns the type identification of an object derived from a class inheriting SoAction. This is used for runtime type checking and "downward" casting.

Reimplemented from SoToVRMLAction.

## getClassTypeId()

SoType SoToVRML2Action::getClassTypeId | ( | void |  | ) |

static

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

## addMethod()

void SoToVRML2Action::addMethod | ( | const SoType | type,
|  | SoActionMethod | method )

static

This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.

## enableElement()

void SoToVRML2Action::enableElement | ( | const SoType | type,
|  | const int | stackindex )

static

This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.

## getEnabledElements()

const SoEnabledElementsList & SoToVRML2Action::getEnabledElements | ( | void |  | ) | const

protected virtual

Returns list of enabled elements.

Reimplemented from SoToVRMLAction.

## getClassEnabledElements()

SoEnabledElementsList * SoToVRML2Action::getClassEnabledElements | ( | void |  | ) |

static protected

Returns list of enabled elements for this class. The enabledElements and methods variables are protected in the original OIV API. This is not such a good idea, since exposed static class member variables is a major grievance with regard to Win32 DLLs. This function is an extension for Coin, and it is not available in the original SGI Open Inventor v2.1 API.

## getClassActionMethods()

SoActionMethodList * SoToVRML2Action::getClassActionMethods | ( | void |  | ) |

static protected

Returns list of action methods for this class. The enabledElements and methods variables are protected in the original OIV API. This is not such a good idea, since exposed static class member variables is a major grievance with regard to Win32 DLLs. This function is an extension for Coin, and it is not available in the original SGI Open Inventor v2.1 API.

## initClass()

void SoToVRML2Action::initClass | ( | void |  | ) |

static

Initializes the runtime type system for this class, and sets up the enabled elements and action method list.

## apply() [1/3]

void SoToVRML2Action::apply | ( | SoNode * | root | ) |

virtual

Applies the action to the scene graph rooted at root.

Note that you should not apply an action to a node with a zero reference count. The behavior in that case is undefined.

Reimplemented from SoToVRMLAction.

## apply() [2/3]

void SoToVRML2Action::apply | ( | SoPath * | path | ) |

virtual

Applies the action to the parts of the graph defined by path.

Note that an SoPath will also contain all nodes that may influence e.g. geometry nodes in the path. So for instance applying an SoGLRenderAction on an SoPath will render that path as expected in the view, where geometry will get its materials, textures, and other appearance settings correctly.

If the path ends in an SoGroup node, the action will also traverse the tail node's children.

Reimplemented from SoToVRMLAction.

## apply() [3/3]

void SoToVRML2Action::apply | ( | const SoPathList & | pathlist,
|  | SbBool | obeysrules = FALSE )

virtual

Applies action to the graphs defined by pathlist. If obeysrules is set to `TRUE`, pathlist must obey the following four conditions (which is the case for path lists returned from search actions for non-group nodes and path lists returned from picking actions):

All paths must start at the same head node. All paths must be sorted in traversal order. The paths must be unique. No path can continue through the end point of another path.

See also
  SoAction::apply(SoPath * path)

Reimplemented from SoToVRMLAction.

## getVRML2SceneGraph()

SoVRMLGroup * SoToVRML2Action::getVRML2SceneGraph | ( | void |  | ) | const

Return a pointer to the root node of the generated scene graph of only VRML2 / VRML97 nodes.

Will return `NULL` if VRML97 support was not compiled into the library.

## reuseAppearanceNodes()

void SoToVRML2Action::reuseAppearanceNodes | ( | SbBool | appearance | ) |

Set the flag deciding if appearance nodes should be reused if possible. The default is FALSE.

Please note that support for reusing Appearance nodes is not implemented yet.

## doReuseAppearanceNodes()

SbBool SoToVRML2Action::doReuseAppearanceNodes | ( | void |  | ) | const

Get the flag deciding if appearance nodes should be reused if possible. The default is FALSE.

Please note that support for reusing Appearance nodes is not implemented yet, so this method will always return FALSE.

## reusePropertyNodes()

void SoToVRML2Action::reusePropertyNodes | ( | SbBool | property | ) |

Set the flag deciding if property nodes should be reused if possible. The default is FALSE.

## doReusePropertyNodes()

SbBool SoToVRML2Action::doReusePropertyNodes | ( | void |  | ) | const

Get the flag deciding if property nodes should be reused if possible. The default is FALSE.

## reuseGeometryNodes()

void SoToVRML2Action::reuseGeometryNodes | ( | SbBool | geometry | ) |

Set the flag deciding if geometry nodes should be reused if possible. The default is FALSE.

Please note that support for reusing Geometry nodes is not implemented yet.

## doReuseGeometryNodes()

SbBool SoToVRML2Action::doReuseGeometryNodes | ( | void |  | ) | const

Get the flag deciding if geometry nodes should be reused if possible. The default is FALSE.

Please note that support for reusing Geometry nodes is not implemented yet, so this function will always return FALSE.

## beginTraversal()

void SoToVRML2Action::beginTraversal | ( | SoNode * | node | ) |

protected virtual

This virtual method is called from SoAction::apply(), and is the entry point for the actual scene graph traversal.

It can be overridden to initialize the action at traversal start, for specific initializations in the action subclasses inheriting SoAction.

Default method just calls traverse(), which any overridden implementation of the method must do too (or call SoAction::beginTraversal()) to trigger the scene graph traversal.

Reimplemented from SoToVRMLAction.
