Detailed Description

This node class is very similar to SoGroup with the exception that it specifies restrictions on the type of children that it allows. It is used by nodekits to restrict child types within list parts (see the reference page for SoBaseKit).

By default, any kind of child may be added. Methods of this class allow you to restrict the type of allowable children, and to lock down the types so that this type list may no longer be altered.

Inside the SoNodeKitListPart is a container node, which in turn contains the children. The container node is a hidden child, and the type of node used may be set with setContainerType(). In this way, you can make the nodekitlist behave like a group, a separator, or any other subclass of group. The container is not accessible so that the nodekitlist may retain control over what kinds of children are added.
