MFnDoubleArrayData Class Reference

#include <MFnDoubleArrayData.h>

Class Description

double array function set for dependency node data.

MFnDoubleArrayData allows the creation and manipulation of MDoubleArray data objects for use in the dependency graph.

If a user written dependency node either accepts or produces MDoubleArrays, then this class is used to extract or create the data that comes from or goes to other dependency graph nodes. The MDataHandle::type() method will return kDoubleArray when data of this type is present. To access it, the MDataHandle::data() method is used to get an MObject for the data and this should then be used to initialize an instance of MFnDoubleArrayData.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MFnDoubleArrayData ( MObject object,
MStatus ReturnStatus = NULL 
)

Constructor.

Class constructor that initializes the function set to the given MObject.

Parameters
[in]objectThe MObject to attach the function set to
[out]ReturnStatusthe return status
Status Codes:
  • MS::kSuccess if the function set is successfully attached
  • MS::kInvalidParameter if the MObject does not represent a valid Maya object or if the function set is not allowed to attach to this MObject
MFnDoubleArrayData ( const MObject object,
MStatus ReturnStatus = NULL 
)

Constructor.

Class constructor that initializes the function set to the given MObject.

Parameters
[in]objectThe MObject to attach the function set to
[out]ReturnStatusthe return status
Status Codes:
  • MS::kSuccess if the function set is successfully attached
  • MS::kInvalidParameter if the MObject does not represent a valid Maya object or if the function set is not allowed to attach to this MObject

Member Function Documentation

MFn::Type type ( ) const
virtual

Function set type.

Return the class type : MFn::kDoubleArrayData.

Reimplemented from MFnData.

OPENMAYA_MAJOR_NAMESPACE_OPEN const char * className ( ) const
protectedvirtual

Class name.

Return the class name : "MFnDoubleArrayData".

Reimplemented from MFnData.

unsigned int length ( MStatus ReturnStatus = NULL) const

Return the number of doubles in the instance.

Parameters
[out]ReturnStatuskFailure if the instance is not attached to an MObject, and kSuccess otherwise.
Returns
The number of doubles in the instance
+ Examples:
double operator[] ( unsigned int  index) const

Extract the indicated double from the const instance.

No checking is done by this class to ensure that the index is valid - use the length method to determine the size of the array. If the instance is not attached to an MObject, this method will return an double containing zero.

Parameters
[in]indexthe index of the double to extract
Returns
The indicated double
MStatus set ( double  element,
unsigned int  index 
)

Set the double array element at the specified index.

The index must be valid for the array.

Parameters
[in]elementthe element to set at the specified index
[in]indexthe index of the double to set
Returns
  • kSuccess operation successful
  • kFailure instance is not attached to an MObject
+ Examples:
MStatus copyTo ( MDoubleArray dest) const

Copy all the doubles in the instance into the given MDoubleArray.

Parameters
[out]destthe MDoubleArray to populate
Returns
  • kSuccess operation successful
  • kFailure instance is not attached to an MObject
MStatus set ( const MDoubleArray array)

Set the instance to contain the doubles defined in the given MDoubleArray.

Parameters
[in]arraythe MDoubleArray containing the data to set into this instance
Returns
  • kSuccess operation successful
  • kFailure instance is not attached to an MObject
MDoubleArray array ( MStatus ReturnStatus = NULL)

Return an MDoubleArray containing the double array currently operated upon by the function set.

The MDoubleArray returned by this method is editable, so any changes to the return instance also affects the MObject operated upon by this function set.

Parameters
[out]ReturnStatuskFailure if the instance is not attached to an MObject, and kSuccess otherwise.
Returns
A copy of the MDoubleArray held in this instance
+ Examples:
MObject create ( MStatus ReturnStatus = NULL)

Create a new double array data object, initialize it to be empty, and attach it to this instance.

Parameters
[out]ReturnStatuskSuccess
Returns
MObject referring to the newly created double array data object
+ Examples:
MObject create ( const MDoubleArray arr,
MStatus ReturnStatus = NULL 
)

Create a new double array data object, initialize it to contain the data from the given MDoubleArray, and attach it to this instance.

Parameters
[in]arrthe data to use when initializing this instance
[out]ReturnStatuskSuccess
Returns
MObject referring to the newly created double array data object
double & operator[] ( unsigned int  index)

NO SCRIPT SUPPORT.

Extract the indicated double from the instance.

The double returned by this method is editable, so any changes to the return instance also affect the MObject operated upon by this function set.

No checking is done by this class to ensure that the index is valid - use the length method to determine the size of the array. If the instance is not attached to an MObject, this method will return a reference to a dummy value.

Parameters
[in]indexthe index of the double to extract
Returns
The indicated double
