DESCRIPTION

       A field containing a plane equation (an SbPlane).

       SoSFPlanes  are written to file as four floating point values separated by whitespace. The
       first three are the normal direction of the plane, the fourth is the distance of the plane
       from the origin (in the direction of the normal).

METHODS

     static SoType       getClassTypeId()
     virtual void        getTypeId() const
          Returns the type for this class or a particular object of this class.

     const SbPlane &     getValue() const
          Returns this field's value.

     const SbPlane &     operator =(const SbPlane & newValue)
     void                setValue(const SbPlane & newValue)
          Sets this field to newValue.

     int                 operator ==(const SoSFPlane &f) const
     int                 operator !=(const SoSFPlane &f) const
          Returns TRUE if f is of the same type and has the same value as this field.
