//     Function: ModelNode::make_copy
//       Access: Public, Virtual
//  Description: Returns a newly-allocated Node that is a shallow copy
//               of this one.  It will be a different Node pointer,
//               but its internal data may or may not be shared with
//               that of the original Node.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//     Function: ModelNode::safe_to_flatten
//       Access: Public, Virtual
//  Description: Returns true if it is generally safe to flatten out
//               this particular kind of Node by duplicating
//               instances, false otherwise (for instance, a Camera
//               cannot be safely flattened, because the Camera
//               pointer itself is meaningful).

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//     Function: ModelNode::safe_to_transform
//       Access: Public, Virtual
//  Description: Returns true if it is generally safe to transform
//               this particular kind of Node by calling the xform()
//               method, false otherwise.  For instance, it's usually
//               a bad idea to attempt to xform a Character.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//     Function: ModelNode::safe_to_modify_transform
//       Access: Public, Virtual
//  Description: Returns true if it is safe to automatically adjust
//               the transform on this kind of node.  Usually, this is
//               only a bad idea if the user expects to find a
//               particular transform on the node.
//
//               ModelNodes with the preserve_transform flag set are
//               presently the only kinds of nodes that should not
//               have their transform even adjusted.

//     Function: ModelNode::safe_to_combine
//       Access: Public, Virtual
//  Description: Returns true if it is generally safe to combine this
//               particular kind of PandaNode with other kinds of
//               PandaNodes, adding children or whatever.  For
//               instance, an LODNode should not be combined with any
//               other PandaNode, because its set of children is
//               meaningful.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//     Function: ModelNode::preserve_name
//       Access: Public, Virtual
//  Description: Returns true if the node's name has extrinsic meaning
//               and must be preserved across a flatten operation,
//               false otherwise.

//       Access: Public, Virtual
//  Description: Writes the contents of this object to the datagram
//               for shipping out to a Bam file.

//     Function: ModelNode::make_from_bam
//       Access: Protected, Static
//  Description: This function is called by the BamReader's factory
//               when a new object of type ModelNode is encountered
//               in the Bam file.  It should create the ModelNode
//               and extract its information from the file.

//     Function: ModelNode::fillin
//       Access: Protected
//  Description: This internal function is called by make_from_bam to
//               read in all of the relevant data from the BamFile for
//               the new ModelNode.
