<hr><a name="_details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
Information needed during a render traversal. 
<p>
The members could be arguments to the Node::render method, but there may be many arguments, and adding an argument requires changing nearly every file in the core.<p>
WARNING: This is a concrete base class that is passed by value, not by reference. The idea is to pass everything exactly as if it were a normal argument to the render function. This has some consequences...<p>
First off, the members should be primitives or pointers. There shouldn't be anything that requires a lot of work to copy. Calling render() should be cheap. Secondly, while adding a new member to this class is less work than adding a new argument to every <a class="el" href="classopenvrml_1_1node.html#a67">node::render</a> call, it still requires a recompile of nearly the whole core. That's because pass-by-value needs to know the exact size of what's being passed. Thirdly, you can't subclass this class. It's concrete. If you pass a subclass it will just get truncated.<p>
Why do it this way? Because it makes writing the <a class="el" href="classopenvrml_1_1node.html#a67">node::render</a> method easier. We don't have to maintain a stack of states, we just use the call stack instead. That means no heap allocation and deallocation, which is very cool. Also, we don't have to pop the stack at the end of the method. Alternatively, I could have used the "initialization is resource acquisition" pattern, but I felt this was cleaner.<p>

Track the results of intersecting node bounds with the view volume. 
<p>
Setting to <a class="el" href="classopenvrml_1_1bounding__volume.html#w3w0">bounding_volume::inside</a> means that all the last tested bounding volume was completely inside the view volume, so all the contained bounding volumes must also be inside and we can skip further testing. <a class="el" href="classopenvrml_1_1bounding__volume.html#w3w2">bounding_volume::partial</a> means that the last test indicated that the bounding volume intersected the view volume, so some of the children may be visible and we must continue testing. <a class="el" href="classopenvrml_1_1bounding__volume.html#w3w1">bounding_volume::outside</a> means the last test indicated the bounding volume was completely outside the view volume. However, there's normally no reason to call set with <a class="el" href="classopenvrml_1_1bounding__volume.html#w3w1">bounding_volume::outside</a>, since the render method returns immediately. But who knows; it might be useful some day, so it's an allowed value.<p>
Setting the cull flag to <a class="el" href="classopenvrml_1_1bounding__volume.html#w3w0">bounding_volume::inside</a> in the Browser at the top of the traversal has the effect of disabling the culling tests. The behavior is undefined if the flag is not one of the allowed values.<p>

Draw the bounding volumes or not. 
<p>
If true, then the renderer may draw the bounding volumes for each primitive. Or maybe not, so you shouldn't depend on this behavior. It does look kinda cool though.     </td>
