[osg-users] META_Object definition

[Kim C Bale]

Hi all,

 

I've started to inherit from some of the core osg classes to modify
their functionality and I noticed the use of this META_Object definition
in headers. Now I traced this back to its definition in osg::Object and
I just wanted to clarify its use. 

 

To give a bit of background I am currently inheriting from
osgParticle::ParticleSystem in order to override it's update function.
Am I right in thinking that the META_Object call is just a convenience
definition that define the set of copy operations? If so, does it need
to be included in the classes I create that inherit from the osg
library? 

 

Regards to you all,

 

Kim.
