Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to assert whether a reference frame needs a hosting entity to exist; functional boolean.

Avoid when

• Avoid naming the host here (use gmeow:isHostedBy) — this flag only states whether a host is required.

How to use

• Set gmeow:requiresHost true for frames bound to a host (a robot base, a building grid) and pair with gmeow:isHostedBy on instances.

Examples

• gmeow:referenceFrameRobotArm6DOF gmeow:requiresHost true.
