INHERITS FROM

       SoEngineOutput

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Inventor/engines/SoEngine.h>

          Methods from class SoEngineOutput:

     SoType              getConnectionType() const
     int                 getForwardConnections(SoFieldList &list) const
     void                enable(SbBool flag)
     SbBool              isEnabled() const
     SoEngine*           getContainer() const

DESCRIPTION

       SoEngineOuput  is  the  class for all engine output fields. There is no public constructor
       routine for this class. Only the engine classes create instances of SoEngineOutput.

       Each engine creates one or more engine outputs. The type of the output  is  documented  in
       the  engine  reference  pages.  There  is  also  an SoEngineOutput method for querying the
       connection type.

       The application can at any time enable or disable  the  engine  outputs.  By  default  the
       engine outputs are enabled.

METHODS

     SoType              getConnectionType() const
          Returns the type of field this output can connect to.

     int                 getForwardConnections(SoFieldList &list) const
          Returns  the  number  of  fields  this output is writing to, and adds pointers to those
          fields to the given list.

     void                enable(SbBool flag)
          Enables or disables all connections from this ouptut. If the connections are  disabled,
          values will not be output along them. By default, outputs are enabled.

     SbBool              isEnabled() const
          Returns TRUE if this output is currently enabled.

     SoEngine*           getContainer() const
          Returns containing engine.
