MConnectDisconnectAttrEdit Class Reference

#include <MConnectDisconnectAttrEdit.h>

Class Description

Class for describing connection and disconnection edits.

This class is used to query information about connection and disconnection edits. Such edits occur when a file reference or assembly is loaded and connections are made or broken to attributes within the loaded nodes.

Please note that when a reference or assembly is unloaded, plugs related to operations cannot be returned since the plugs themselves do not exist. Thus for unloaded references, only the plug names may be queried successfully.

The MItEdits class may be used to iterate over all the edits on a given reference or assembly.
