Detailed Description

int array function set for dependency node data.

MFnVectorArrayData allows the creation and manipulation of MVectorArray data objects for use in the dependency graph.

If a user written dependency node either accepts or produces MVectorArrays, 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 kVectorArray 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 MFnVectorArrayData.

Examples:: AbcBullet/AttributesWriter.cpp, AbcExport/AttributesWriter.cpp, AbcImport/NodeIteratorVisitorHelper.cpp, dynExprField/dynExprField.cpp, ownerEmitter/ownerEmitter.cpp, particleAttrNode/particleAttrNode.cpp, simpleFluidEmitter/simpleFluidEmitter.cpp, and torusField/torusField.cpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MFnVectorArrayData	(	MObject &	object,
		MStatus *	ReturnStatus = `NULL`
	)

Constructor.

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

Parameters

[in]	object	The MObject to attach the function set to
[out]	ReturnStatus	the 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

MFnVectorArrayData	(	const MObject &	object,
		MStatus *	ReturnStatus = `NULL`
	)

Constructor.

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

Parameters

[in]	object	The MObject to attach the function set to
[out]	ReturnStatus	the 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::kVectorArrayData.

Returns: the class type.

Reimplemented from MFnData.

OPENMAYA_MAJOR_NAMESPACE_OPEN const char * className ( )

static

Returns the name of this class.

Return the class name : "MFnVectorArrayData".

Returns: Name of this class.

unsigned int length ( MStatus * ReturnStatus = NULL ) const

Return the number of vectors in the instance.

Parameters

[out] ReturnStatus kFailure if the instance is not attached to an MObject, and kSuccess otherwise.

Returns: The number of vectors in the instance

Examples:: AbcBullet/AttributesWriter.cpp, and AbcExport/AttributesWriter.cpp.

MStatus set	(	MVector &	element,
		unsigned int	index
	)

Set the element at the specified index.

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.

Parameters

[in]	element	the element
[in]	index	the index of the vector to set

Returns

kSuccess operation successful
kFailure instance is not attached to an MObject

Examples:: particleAttrNode/particleAttrNode.cpp.

MStatus copyTo ( MVectorArray & dest ) const

Copy all the vectors in the instance into the given MVectorArray.

Parameters

[out] dest the MVectorArray to populate

Returns

kSuccess operation successful
kFailure instance is not attached to an MObject

MStatus set ( const MVectorArray & array )

Set the instance to contain the vectors defined in the given MVectorArray.

Parameters

[in] array the MVectorArray containing the data to set into this instance

Returns

kSuccess operation successful
kFailure instance is not attached to an MObject

MVectorArray array ( MStatus * ReturnStatus = NULL )

Return an MVectorArray containing the vector array currently operated upon by the function set.

The MVectorArray 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] ReturnStatus kFailure if the instance is not attached to an MObject, and kSuccess otherwise.

Returns: A copy of the MVectorArray held in this instance

Examples:: particleAttrNode/particleAttrNode.cpp.

MObject create ( MStatus * ReturnStatus = NULL )

Create a new MObject, attach it to this instance, and initialize it to be empty.

Parameters

[out] ReturnStatus kSuccess

Returns: The newly created MObject

Examples:: AbcImport/NodeIteratorVisitorHelper.cpp, dynExprField/dynExprField.cpp, particleAttrNode/particleAttrNode.cpp, and torusField/torusField.cpp.

MObject create	(	const MVectorArray &	arr,
		MStatus *	ReturnStatus = `NULL`
	)

Create a new MObject, attach it to this instance, and initialize it to contain the data from the given MVectorArray.

Parameters

[in]	arr	the data to use when initializing this instance
[out]	ReturnStatus	kSuccess

Returns: The newly created MObject

const MVector & operator[] ( unsigned int index ) const

NO SCRIPT SUPPORT.

Extract the indicated int 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 empty vector.

Parameters

[in] index the index of the vector to extract

Returns: The indicated vector

MVector & operator[] ( unsigned int index )

NO SCRIPT SUPPORT.

Extract the indicated vector from the instance.

by the function set. The vector returned by this method is editable, so any changes to the returned instance also affects 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 zero vector.

Parameters

[in] index the index of the vector to extract

Returns: The indicated vector
