Detailed Description

This class of strings stores the string in a hash table. It is used by the Inventor toolkit for keywords and other unique names. It is not recommended for general use (only in the context of Inventor objects). When a string is stored in this table, a pointer to the storage is returned. Two identical strings will return the same pointer. This means that comparison of two SbNames for equality can be accomplished by comparing their identifiers. SbNames are used for strings which are expected to show up frequently, such as node names.
