The SoEventCallback class provides functionality for catching events.

Use SoEventCallback nodes in the scene graph for catching user interaction events with the scene graph's render canvas.

This is how event handling works in Coin: when the user interacts with the render canvas, for instance by using the mouse pointer or by hitting the keyboard, the GUI interface toolkit (i.e. SoQt, SoWin, SoXt, Sc21 ...) will catch the event and translate it from a window system specific event to a generic Coin event. (For the types of generic Coin events, see the classes derived from SoEvent.) This event will then be wrapped inside a SoHandleEventAction and applied to the scene graph. All this happens within the So[Qt|Xt|Win|...] toolkit.

The SoHandleEventAction then traverses the scene graph, delivering the event to any node type which 'is interested' in it. The SoEventCallback node type catches the action and forwards the event to a callback function set up by the application programmer.

Be careful about which position in the scene graph you insert SoEventCallback nodes if you are also using any of the built-in Coin library elements which are interested in user interaction events (like for instance the dragger and manipulator classes and the SoSelection nodes). These Coin elements might catch the event for themselves, short-circuiting the SoHandleEventAction traversal so the event will never reach the SoEventCallback node(s) you insert.

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS:

EventCallback {
}

Constructor.

Destructor.

SoType SoEventCallback::getClassTypeId (void ) [static]

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

SoType SoEventCallback::getTypeId (void ) const [virtual]

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

Implements SoBase.

const SoFieldData ** SoEventCallback::getFieldDataPtr (void ) [static], [protected]

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


Returns the SoFieldData class which holds information about fields in this node.

const SoFieldData * SoEventCallback::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.

Reimplemented from SoFieldContainer.

Sets the path that must be picked before the registered callbacks are invoked. If NULL, callbacks will be invoked for every event that matches the callback event type.

See also

getPath()

const SoPath * SoEventCallback::getPath (void )

Returns the path that must be picked before callbacks are invoked.

See also

setPath()

Set up a callback function f which will be invoked for the given eventtype. userdata will be given as the first argument to the function.

Unregister the given callback function f.

SoHandleEventAction * SoEventCallback::getAction (void ) const

Returns the SoHandleEventAction instance currently traversing the scene graph with the SoEvent-derived event object.

const SoEvent * SoEventCallback::getEvent (void ) const

Returns a pointer to the event object which is currently being sent through the scene graph.

If your application code handles the event, you probably want to call SoEventCallback::setHandled() to notify the SoHandleEventAction that it should stop traversing the scene graph with the event.

const SoPickedPoint * SoEventCallback::getPickedPoint (void ) const

Returns the picked point for the current handle event traversal.

This is obviously only related to events which can be considered 'pick-style' events, like mouse button presses.

Use this method from a callback function to notify the node that the event has been handled.

The rest of the callbacks registered with the node will still be called, but further SoEventCallback nodes in the scene will not be notified about the event, neither will any other Coin elements in the scene graph (like for instance SoDragger objects, SoSelection nodes or manipulators).

Since callbacks registered within the same SoEventCallback node will still be invoked after the event has been handled, it is likely that you should use SoEventCallback::isHandled() to check for this condition from your callback functions.

Check whether or not the event from the SoHandleEventAction has been handled.

Set up the node so all future events (until releaseEvents() is called) in Coin will be directly forwarded to this node.

Do not grab event handling any more.

See also

grabEvents()

Invokes the registered callback functions.
