Return the NodeType of a generic Node.
This function allows the actual node type to be interrogated before upcasting the handle to the actual node type (see Upcasting and Dowcasting section in Node).
- Returns:
- The NodeType of a generic Node, which may be one of the following NodeType enumeration values: E57_STRUCTURE, E57_VECTOR, E57_COMPRESSED_VECTOR, E57_INTEGER, E57_SCALED_INTEGER, E57_FLOAT, E57_STRING, E57_BLOB.
- Postcondition:
- No visible state is modified.
