getObjectID()

int CDPL.Vis.Shape3D.getObjectID

(

)

Returns the numeric identifier (ID) of the wrapped C++ class instance.

Different Python Shape3D instances may reference the same underlying C++ class instance. The commonly used Python expression a is not b thus cannot tell reliably whether the two Shape3D instances a and b reference different C++ objects. The numeric identifier returned by this method allows to correctly implement such an identity test via the simple expression a.getObjectID() != b.getObjectID().

Returns

The numeric ID of the internally referenced C++ class instance.

clone()

Shape3D CDPL.Vis.Shape3D.clone

(

)

Creates a dynamically allocated copy of the graphics primitive.

Returns

The copy of the graphics primitive.

accept()

None CDPL.Vis.Shape3D.accept

(

Shape3DVisitor

visitor

)

Vis.Shape3DVisitor implementation accept method [VPTN].

Parameters

visitor

The Vis.Shape3DVisitor instance to accept.
