Detailed Description

Render pass information.

This class provides a means to access information about a specific render pass. Initialize by passing to MRenderPassRegistry::getRenderPassDefinition(), or by calling create() to generate and register a new pass.

MPxRenderPassImpl * getImplementation	(	const MString &	renderer,
		MPxRenderPassImpl::PassTypeBit	fbType,
		unsigned int	numChannels,
		MStatus *	ReturnStatus = `NULL`
	)

Retrieve an implementation of this render pass for the given renderer.

That supports the specified data type and the specified number of channels.

Parameters

[in]	renderer	The renderer
[in]	fbType	The base data type of the frame buffer
[in]	numChannels	The number of components per pixel in the frame buffer
[out]	ReturnStatus	Status code

Returns: A pointer to the pass implementation or null if no definition exists

Status Codes:

MS::kSuccess The implementation was retrieved
MS::kFailure An object error has occured

MPxRenderPassImpl * getImplementation	(	const MString &	renderer,
		MStatus *	ReturnStatus = `NULL`
	)

Retrieve an implementation of this render pass for the given renderer.

Parameters

[in]	renderer	The renderer
[out]	ReturnStatus	Status code

Returns: A pointer to the pass implementation or null if no definition exists

Status Codes:

MS::kSuccess The implementation was retrieved
MS::kFailure An object error has occured

MString getID ( MStatus * ReturnStatus = NULL ) const

Retrieve the pass ID for this pass.

Parameters

[out] ReturnStatus Status code

Returns: The pass ID

Status Codes:

MS::kSuccess The method was successful
MS::kFailure An object error has occured

MString getName ( MStatus * ReturnStatus = NULL ) const

Retrieve the pass name for this pass.

Parameters

[out] ReturnStatus Status code

Returns: The pass name

Parameters

[out] ReturnStatus Status code

Returns: The pass group

Status Codes:

MS::kSuccess The method was successful
MS::kFailure An object error has occured

MString getDescription ( MStatus * ReturnStatus = NULL ) const

Retrieve the description for this pass.

Parameters

[out] ReturnStatus Status code

Returns: The description

Status Codes:

MS::kFailure An object error has occured

MString getAttributeType	(	const MString &	attributeName,
		MStatus *	ReturnStatus = `NULL`
	)		const

Retrieve the type of a given render pass attribute.

Parameters

[in]	attributeName	The name of the render pass attribute to query.
[out]	ReturnStatus	Status code.

Returns: The type of the given attribute.

Status Codes:

MS::kSuccess The method was successful
MS::kFailure An object error has occured

MStatus addFloatParameter	(	const MString &	longName,
		const MString &	shortName,
		const MString &	UIName,
		const float &	minValue,
