DESCRIPTION
     This class contains detail information about a point in a vertex-based
     shape made of points. It is used for returning information about an
     intersection with or primitives generated by a set of points. It is also
     used by SoFaceDetail and SoLineDetail to return information about the
     vertices of faces and line segments.

FUNCTIONS
     SoPointDetail *     SoPtDtlCreate()
     void                SoPtDtlDelete(SoPtDtl *this)
          Constructor and destructor.

     int32_t             SoPtDtlGetCoordInd(const SoPtDtl *this)
          Returns the index of the point within the relevant coordinate node.

     int32_t             SoPtDtlGetMtlInd(const SoPtDtl *this)
          Returns the index of the material for the point within the relevant
          material node.

     int32_t             SoPtDtlGetNormInd(const SoPtDtl *this)
          Returns the index of the surface normal at the point within the
          relevant normal node. Note that if normals have been generated for a
          shape, the index may not be into an existing normal node.
     int32_t             SoPtDtlGetTexCoordInd(const SoPtDtl *this)
          Returns the index of the texture coordinates for the point within
          the relevant normal node. Note that if texture coordinates have been
          generated for a shape, the index may not be into an existing texture
          coordinate node.
