Constructors

Signature	Parameters	Description
MObject()		Default constructor. Returns an empty MObject instance (i.e. one which contains kNullObj).
MObject(src)	src - MObject	Copy constructor. Returns a new MObject instance which references the same internal Maya object as src, which must be another MObject instance.

Comparison Support

==	True if both MObjects refer to the same internal Maya object, False otherwise.
!=	True if the two MObjects refer to different internal Maya objects, or one is null and the other is not. False otherwise.

OpenMaya.MObject.apiType

(

)

Returns the function set type for the object.

Signature:	apiType()

OpenMaya.MObject.isNull

(

)

Tests whether there is an internal Maya object.

Signature:	isNull()
Parameters:
Returns:	Bool
Description:	Returns True if the MObject is not referring to any Maya internal internal object (i.e. it is equivalent to kNullObj).
