Detailed Description

Scene messages.

This class is used to register callbacks for scene related messages.

The addCallback method registers a function that will be executed whenever the specified message occurs. An id is returned and is used to remove the callback.

To remove a callback use MMessage::removeCallback. All callbacks that are registered by a plug-in must be removed by that plug-in when it is unloaded. Failure to do so will result in a fatal error.

Member Function Documentation

OPENMAYA_MAJOR_NAMESPACE_OPEN MCallbackId addCallback ( MSceneMessage::Message  msg, MMessage::MBasicFunction  func, void *  clientData = NULL, MStatus *  ReturnStatus = NULL  )

static

Adds a new callback for the specified scene message.

If a 'before' message is sent, the corresponding 'after' message will be as well.

Callbacks can be added to the following messages with this function:

• kSceneUpdate
• kBeforeNew
• kAfterNew
• kBeforeImport
• kAfterImport
• kBeforeOpen
• kAfterOpen
• kBeforeFileRead
• kAfterFileRead
• kAfterSceneReadAndRecordEdits
• kBeforeExport
• kExportStarted
• kAfterExport
• kBeforeSave
• kAfterSave
• kBeforeCreateReference
• kBeforeCreateReferenceAndRecordEdits
• kAfterCreateReference
• kAfterCreateReferenceAndRecordEdits
• kBeforeRemoveReference
• kAfterRemoveReference
• kBeforeImportReference
• kAfterImportReference
• kBeforeExportReference
• kAfterExportReference
• kBeforeUnloadReference
• kAfterUnloadReference
• kBeforeLoadReference
• kBeforeLoadReferenceAndRecordEdits
• kAfterLoadReference
• kAfterLoadReferenceAndRecordEdits
• kBeforeSoftwareRender
• kAfterSoftwareRender
• kBeforeSoftwareFrameRender
• kAfterSoftwareFrameRender
• kSoftwareRenderInterrupted
• kMayaInitialized
• kMayaExiting

Note that for referencing, the creation of the reference (i.e. creation of the reference node and associated structures) is separate from the loading of the reference itself (i.e. read the nodes from file).

The kBeforeCreateReference message will be sent when a reference is created. So it will happen for both loaded and unloaded references. But the kBeforeLoadReference message will only be sent when the file is read from disk.

When opening a file with a loaded reference, the callback order is as follows,

• kBeforeCreateReference
• kBeforeCreateReferenceAndRecordEdits
• kAfterCreateReference
• kAfterCreateReferenceAndRecordEdits

• kBeforeLoadReference
• kBeforeLoadReferenceAndRecordEdits
• kAfterLoadReference
• kAfterLoadReferenceAndRecordEdits

By default, edits to referenced objects will not be recorded during the execution of file I/O callbacks. A specific set of callbacks are provided that will enable the recording of reference edits during their execution as follows,

• kAfterSceneReadAndRecordEdits
• kBeforeCreateReferenceAndRecordEdits
• kAfterCreateReferenceAndRecordEdits
• kBeforeLoadReferenceAndRecordEdits
• kAfterLoadReferenceAndRecordEdits

The kExportStarted callback is sent after the kBeforeExport callback, once Maya has actually started to process the exported data. One important difference between the two callbacks is that the fileInfo command affects the exported scene when used in the kExportStarted callback, but affects the current scene in memory when used in the kBeforeExport callback.

Parameters

[in]	msg	the scene message that will trigger the callback
[in]	func	the callback function clientData User defined data passed to the callback function
[in]	clientData	user data that will be passed to the callback function
[out]	ReturnStatus	Status code

Returns

Identifier used for removing the callback.

Status Codes:

• MS::kSuccess Operation succeeded
• MS::kInsufficientMemory No memory available
• MS::kFailure Error adding callback

Examples:

autoLoader/autoLoader.cpp, cgFx/pluginMain.cpp, dx11Shader/dx11Shader.cpp, dx11Shader/dx11ShaderCompileHelper.cpp, fileIOMsgCmd/fileIOMsgCmd.cpp, glslShader/GLSLShader.cpp, gpuCache/gpuCacheSubSceneOverride.cpp, gpuCache/gpuCacheVBOProxy.cpp, hlslShader/hlslShader.cpp, and ik2Bsolver/ik2Bsolver.cpp.

MCallbackId addCheckCallback ( MSceneMessage::Message  msg, MMessage::MCheckFunction  func, void *  clientData = NULL, MStatus *  ReturnStatus = NULL  )

static

This function adds a new callback for the specified scene message.

The callback will have the ability to abort the current operation by returning false through its 'retCode' parameter.

NOTE: The check message is sent out before the equivalent non-check type. As a result, if the check message aborts the operation, the equivalent non-check message type will not be sent.

Callbacks can be added to the following messages with this function:

• kBeforeNewCheck
• kBeforeImportCheck
• kBeforeOpenCheck
• kBeforeExportCheck
• kBeforeSaveCheck
• kBeforeCreateReferenceCheck
• kBeforeLoadReferenceCheck

Parameters

[in]	msg	the scene message that will trigger the callback
[in]	func	the callback function retCode boolean passed in to the callback function. In case of error, the callback function should set this to false. clientData User defined data passed to the callback function
[in]	clientData	user data that will be passed to the callback function
[out]	ReturnStatus	Status code

Returns

Identifier used for removing the callback.

Status Codes:

• MS::kSuccess Operation succeeded
• MS::kInsufficientMemory No memory available
• MS::kFailure Error adding callback

MCallbackId addCheckFileCallback ( MSceneMessage::Message  msg, MMessage::MCheckFileFunction  func, void *  clientData = NULL, MStatus *  ReturnStatus = NULL  )

static

This function adds a new callback for the specified scene message.

This callback has the option to abort the current operation by setting the retCode parameter to false. The file parameter stores the target file for the current file IO operation, by modifying this file parameter the target file will be changed as well.

NOTE: The check message is sent out before the equivalent non-check type. As a result, if the check message aborts the operation, the equivalent non-check message type will not be sent.

Callbacks can be added to the following messages with this function:

• kBeforeImportCheck
• kBeforeOpenCheck
• kBeforeExportCheck
• kBeforeCreateReferenceCheck
• kBeforeLoadReferenceCheck

Parameters

[in]	msg	the scene message that will trigger the callback
[in]	func	the callback function retCode boolean passed in to the callback function. In case of error, the callback function should set this to false. file MFileObject passed in to the callback function. This is the MFileObject that will be acted on by the current file IO operation, any modifications to it will be passed back to Maya and change the file being acted on. clientData User defined data passed to the callback function
[in]	clientData	user data that will be passed to the callback function
[out]	ReturnStatus	Status code

Returns

Identifier used for removing the callback.

Status Codes:

• MS::kSuccess Operation succeeded
• MS::kInsufficientMemory No memory available
• MS::kFailure Error adding callback

MCallbackId addStringArrayCallback ( MSceneMessage::Message  msg, MMessage::MStringArrayFunction  func, void *  clientData = NULL, MStatus *  ReturnStatus = NULL  )

static

Adds a new callback which takes a string array argument, in addition to the usual clientData.

The messages which can be used with this method and the contents of the string array passed to their callbacks are as follows:

• kBeforePluginLoad - path to plug-in file
• kAfterPluginLoad - path to plug-in file, name of plug-in
• kBeforePluginUnload - name of plug-in
• kAfterPluginUnload - name of plug-in, path to plug-in file

To allow for future expansion callbacks should not rely on the number of array elements being exactly as given above. While there will not be fewer elements than given above, there may in future be more.

Parameters

[in]	msg	the scene message that will trigger the callback
[in]	func	the callback function strs immutable array of strings clientData User defined data passed to the callback function
[in]	clientData	user data that will be passed to the callback function
[out]	ReturnStatus	Status code

Returns

Identifier used for removing the callback.

Status Codes:

• MS::kSuccess Operation succeeded
• MS::kInsufficientMemory No memory available
• MS::kFailure Error adding callback

Examples:

pluginCallbacks/pluginCallbacks.cpp.

MCallbackId addConnectionFailedCallback ( MMessage::MConnFailFunction  func, void *  clientData = NULL, MStatus *  ReturnStatus = NULL  )

static

This method registers a callback that is called when a connection was unable to be made.

Currently, the callback is only triggered during the reading of files (.ma or .mb) or of edits files (.editMA or .editMB files created by Maya's offline file support). The most common reasons why a connection would fail are:

• inability to find the specified node or attribute names, or
• a conflicting existing connection

Parameters

[in]	func	the callback function srcPlug Source plug of the connection (or a NULL plug if it could not be found) destPlug Destination plug of the connection (or a NULL plug if it could not be found) srcPlugName Name used to look up the source plug. dstPlugName Name used to look up the destination plug. clientData User defined data passed to the callback function
[in]	clientData	User defined data passed to the callback function
[out]	ReturnStatus	status code

Returns

Identifier used for removing the callback.

Status Codes:

• MS::kSuccess Operation succeeded
• MS::kInsufficientMemory No memory available
• MS::kFailure Error adding callback

Examples:

atomImportExport/atomImportExport.cpp.
