## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

### SoPickRayElement::~SoPickRayElement (void ) \[protected\], \[virtual\]

Destructor.

## Member Function Documentation

### SoType SoPickRayElement::getClassTypeId (void ) \[static\]

This static method returns the **SoType** object associated with objects of this class.

### int SoPickRayElement::getClassStackIndex (void ) \[static\]

This static method returns the state stack index for the class.

### void \* SoPickRayElement::createInstance (void ) \[static\]

*This API member is considered internal to the library, as it is not likely to be of interest to the application programmer.*\

 Creates a new instance of the class type corresponding to the **SoType** object.

### void SoPickRayElement::initClass (void ) \[static\]

Initialize relevant common data for all instances, like the type system.

### void SoPickRayElement::init (SoState \* state) \[virtual\]

Initializes the element to its default value.

Reimplemented from **SoElement**.

### SbBool SoPickRayElement::matches (const SoElement \* element) const \[virtual\]

FIXME: write doc.

Implements **SoElement**.

### SoElement \* SoPickRayElement::copyMatchInfo (void ) const \[virtual\]

FIXME: write doc.

Implements **SoElement**.

## Member Data Documentation

### SbViewVolume SoPickRayElement::volume \[protected\]

FIXME: write doc.
