class Object

Every object that can be referenced by a scene graph node is a subclass of the Object class.

class Object : public Shared, public Packable, public Configurable, public Creatable<Object>, public ListElement<Object>

Object::GetObjectType	Returns the type of an object.
Object::GetModifiedFlag	Returns the modified flag for an object.
Object::SetModifiedFlag	Sets the modified flag for an object.

Object(ObjectType type);

type	The type of the object.

The Object class is the base class for shared objects that are referenced by scene graph nodes. Every instance of the Node class can reference a primary object, simply called the node object. Some types of nodes can also referenced additional objects. For instance, the Geometry class can reference a MaterialObject object in addition to its primary object (which is of type GeometryObject). A single object can be referenced by multiple nodes. This allows for data instancing at multiple places within a world. Since the Object class is shared, it must be released using the Shared::Release function.

Shared	Objects can be referenced by multiple nodes.
Packable	Objects can be packed for storage in resources.
Configurable	Objects can define configurable parameters that are exposed as user interface widgets in the World Editor.
Creatable<Object>	New object subclasses may be defined by an application, and a creator function can be installed using the Creatable class.
ListElement<Object>	Used internally by the World Manager.
