DESCRIPTION
A field containing a single SbRotation (an arbitrary rotation).

SoSFRotations are written to file as four floating point values separated by whitespace. The 4 values represent an axis of rotation followed by the amount of right-handed rotation about that axis, in radians. For example, a 180 degree rotation about the Y axis is:
0 1 0 3.14159265

METHODS
void getValue(const SbVec3f &axis, float &angle) const
Gets the value of the field as an axis/angle.
void setValue(float q0, float q1, float q2, float q3)
setValue(float q[4])
Set the field to the given quaternion.
void setValue(const SbVec3f &axis, float angle)
Set the field to the rotation given by axis/angle.
static SoType getClassTypeId()
virtual void getTypeId() const
Returns the type for this class or a particular object of this class.
const SbRotation & getValue() const
Returns this field's value.
const SbRotation & operator =(const SbRotation & newValue)
void setValue(const SbRotation & newValue)
Sets this field to newValue.
int operator ==(const SoSFRotation &f) const
int operator !=(const SoSFRotation &f) const
Returns TRUE if f is of the same type and has the same value as this field.
