public class SoVRMLMetadataObject
extends SoVRMLNode

Abstract base class for all X3D MetadataObject nodes. See the X3D Specification, below.

<font color="#0000FF">NOTE:</font> This class does not exist in Open Inventor 10.0 and later.

VRML X3D SPECIFICATION

This section describes the expected behavior of the node in a conforming X3D browser application. In some cases, the application is responsible for implementing portions of the expected behavior. Open Inventor viewer classes and IVF classes implement some of the application behaviors.

This section may reference portions of the X3D specification that are not present in this help file. The complete X3D spec is available at http://www.web3d.org.

SoVRMLMetadataObject is the abstract base class for all MetadataObjects.

Metadata is information that is associated with the objects of the X3D world but is not a direct part of the world representation. The SoVRMLMetadataObject defines an abstract interface that identifies a node as containing metadata and metadata nodes that specify metadata values in various data types.

File format/default:

This is an abstract class. See the reference page of a derived class for the format and default values.

Action behavior:

SoGLRenderAction

EVENTS

eventIn

SoSFNode	set_metadata
SoSFString	set_name
SoSFString	set_reference

eventOut

SoSFNode	metadata_changed
SoSFString	name_changed
SoSFString	reference _changed

Deprecated since Open Inventor 9500
The VRML API is no longer supported. See section http://oivdoc95.vsg3d.com/content/compatibility-notes-4#Deprecation of the Reference Manual.

reference

public final SoSFString reference

Deprecated.

The specification of the reference field is optional. If provided, it identifies the metadata standard or other specification that defines the name field. If the reference field is not provided or is empty, the meaning of the name field is considered implicit to the characters in the string.

name

public final SoSFString name

Deprecated.

The specification of the reference field is optional. If provided, it identifies the metadata standard or other specification that defines the name field. If the reference field is not provided or is empty, the meaning of the name field is considered implicit to the characters in the string.
