set the node's StateSet

osg::StateSet* getOrCreateStateSet()

return the node's StateSet, if one does not already exist create it set the node and return the newly created StateSet. This ensures that a valid StateSet is always returned and can be used directly.

inline const osg::StateSet* getStateSet() const

return the node's const StateSet. returns NULL if a stateset is not attached.

inline const BoundingSphere& getBound() const

get the bounding sphere of node. Using lazy evaluation computes the bounding sphere if it is 'dirty'.

void dirtyBound()

Mark this node's bounding sphere dirty. Forcing it to be computed on the next call to getBound().

virtual ~Node()

Node destructor. Note, is protected so that Nodes cannot be deleted other than by being dereferenced and the reference count being zero (see osg::Referenced), preventing the deletion of nodes which are still in use. This also means that Node's cannot be created on stack i.e Node node will not compile, forcing all nodes to be created on the heap i.e Node* node = new Node().

virtual bool computeBound() const

Compute the bounding sphere around Node's geometry or children. This method is automatically called by getBound() when the bounding sphere has been marked dirty via dirtyBound().
