DESCRIPTION
     2D vector class used to store 2D vectors and points. This class is used
     throughout Inventor for arguments and return values.  This object does
     not have Create or Delete functions because it is considered a simple
     datatype; instances of this class may be declared directly as local or
     global variables in C. C programmers can access the components of the
     vector as though it were a simple structure or use the access and
     operation functions described in this reference page:

          struct SbVec2f { float vec[2]; };

          SbVec2f   v1, v2;

          /* The next two lines produce equivalent vectors. */
          v1.vec[0] = 1.0; v1.vec[1] = 1.0;
          SbV2fSetX_Y( v2, 1.0, 1.0 );
FUNCTIONS
     SbBool              SbV2fEquals(const SbV2f *this, const SbVec2f v, float
                              tolerance)
          Equality comparison within given tolerance - the square of the
          length of the maximum distance between the two vectors.

     float               SbV2fNorm(SbV2f *this)
          Changes vector to be unit length.

     int                 SbV2fIsEq(SbV2f *this, const SbVec2f *v1, const
                              SbVec2f *v2)
     int                 SbV2fIsNEq(SbV2f *this, const SbVec2f *v1, const
                              SbVec2f *v2)
          Equality comparison operators.
