## Detailed Description

The SoSFBitMask class is a container for a set of bit flags.

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

A field of this type stores its value to file as the symbolic names, rather than the actual integer bitmask. If more than one bit is set in the value when exporting, the bits are written like this: "(BITNAME|BITNAME|BITNAME|...)".

SoSFBitMask instances are derived from SoSFEnum instances, and are initialized in the same way using the exact same enum-field-related macros.

## Member Function Documentation

## createInstance()

void * SoSFBitMask::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.

## getClassTypeId()

SoType SoSFBitMask::getClassTypeId | ( | void |  | ) |

static

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

## getTypeId()

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

virtual

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

Reimplemented from SoSFEnum.

## copyFrom()

void SoSFBitMask::copyFrom | ( | const SoField & | f | ) |

virtual

Copy value(s) from f into this field. f must be of the same type as this field.

Reimplemented from SoSFEnum.

## isSame()

SbBool SoSFBitMask::isSame | ( | const SoField & | f | ) | const

virtual

Check for equal type and value(s).

Reimplemented from SoSFEnum.

## initClass()

void SoSFBitMask::initClass | ( | void |  | ) |

static

Internal method called upon initialization of the library (from SoDB::init()) to set up the type system.
