Detailed Description

Node that groups other nodes.

This has influence on the Node.IsFeature property (a node under the Root CategoryNode) and is used in graphical user interfaces.

Parameters

name	Name with optional namespace prefix.

◆ CategoryNode() [2/2]

CategoryNode	(	string	name,
		Namespace	nameSpace )

Creates a new CategoryNode with the given name and nameSpace .

You must add this node to a NodeMap before most operations are possible.

Parameters

name	Node name without namespace prefix.
nameSpace	Namespace to place the node in.
