DESCRIPTION

50       A field containing a name. Names are short series of characters  gener‐
51       ally  used  for  labels  or  names,  and  are stored in a special table
52       designed to allow fast lookup and comparison.  For  most  purposes,  an
53       SoSFString field is probably more appropriate.
54
55       SoSFNames  are  written  to  file as a string of characters. Names must
56       begin with an underscore or  alphabetic  character,  and  must  consist
57       entirely of underscores, alphabetic characters, or numbers.

METHODS

60     void                setValue(const char *string)
61          Set this field to the name equivalent to the given string.
62
63     static SoType       getClassTypeId()
64     virtual void        getTypeId() const
65          Returns  the  type  for  this  class  or a particular object of this
66          class.
67
68     const SbName &      getValue() const
69          Returns this field's value.
70
71     const SbName &      operator =(const SbName & newValue)
72     void                setValue(const SbName & newValue)
73          Sets this field to newValue.
74
75     int                 operator ==(const SoSFName &f) const
76     int                 operator !=(const SoSFName &f) const
77          Returns TRUE if f is of the same type and has the same value as this
78          field.
