## DESCRIPTION

**This subclass of SbPList** holds lists of instances of classes derived from **SoDetail**.

## METHODS

	**SoDetailList()**\
 Constructor.

	**SoDetailList(int size)**\
 Constructor that pre-allocates storage for **size** pointers.

	**SoDetailList(const SoDetailList &l)**\
 Constructor that copies the contents of another list.

	**~SoDetailList()**\
 Destructor.

**void**	**append(SoDetail \*detail)**\
 Adds a detail to the end of the list.

**void**	**insert(SoDetail \*detail, int addBefore)**\
 Inserts given detail in list before detail with given index.

**void**	**truncate(int start)**\
 Removes all details after one with given index, inclusive. Removed detail instances are deleted.

**void**	**copy(const SoDetailList &l)**\
 Copies a list, making a copy of each detail instance in the list.

**SoDetailList &**	**operator =(const SoDetailList &l)**\
 Copies a list, making a copy of each detail instance in the list.

**SoDetail \***	**operator \[\](int i) const**\
 Accesses an element of a list.

**void**	**set(int i, SoDetail \*detail)**\
 Sets an element of a list, deleting the old entry first.
