NAME
SoFieldConverter -The SoFieldConverter class is the abstract base class for field converters.
When fields of different types are attempted connected, the Coin library tries to find a field converter class which can be inserted between them, acting as a filter converting values from the master field to values matching the type of the slave field.
SYNOPSIS
#include <Inventor/engines/SoFieldConverter.h>
Inherits SoEngine.

Detailed Description
The SoFieldConverter class is the abstract base class for field converters.
When fields of different types are attempted connected, the Coin library tries to find a field converter class which can be inserted between them, acting as a filter converting values from the master field to values matching the type of the slave field.
If a value type conversion is possible (like between an SoSFFloat field and an SoSFInt32 field, for instance, where we could do a simple typecast for converting the value of one to the other), an SoFieldConverter derived object is inserted.
This class is the abstract base superclass which all such field converters needs to inherit.
Coin comes with one built-in field converter class which takes care of all possible field-to-field conversions we know about. This means applications programmers should seldom need to care about this class, it will probably only be useful if you expand the Coin library with your own field type classes. (Doing so is considered advanced use of the library.)
