Detailed Description

Class for working with the proxy aspect of an xref scene entity.

Some types of xref scene entities allow to be replaced by a proxy (an alternate scene entity) that may reside in a different scene than the xrefed scene entity itself. The proxy scene entity can have a different type (superclass and class ids) than the xrefed scene entity. Proxies can be used to replace the actual xref scene entity in the viewport and/or rendering. Some xref scene entities provided by the system, such as xref objects, expose the IXRefProxy interface. In order to retrieve this interface one must call IXRefProxy::GetInterface with a reference to a scene entity.

Member Function Documentation

GetProxyFile()

virtual const MaxSDK::AssetManagement::AssetUser & GetProxyFile ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the proxy file asset.

Returns

- The proxy file asset.

GetProxyItemName()

virtual const MCHAR * GetProxyItemName ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the name of the proxy scene entity.

Returns

- Pointer to the name of the proxy scene entity or NULL if there's no proxy object set up.

GetProxyRecord()

virtual IObjXRefRecord * GetProxyRecord ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves the xref record this xref proxy belongs to.

Returns

The xref record this xref proxy belongs to. An xref proxy can belong to only one xref record at any one time. A return value of NULL, indicates that the proxy is not part of an xref record yet.

SetUseForDisplay()

virtual void SetUseForDisplay ( bool  bUseProxy )

pure virtual

Allows to turn on or off the use of the proxy for viewport display.

Parameters

[in]

bUseProxy

- If true, the proxy is to be displayed in the viewport instead of the xrefed scene entity, otherwise false

GetUseForDisplay()

virtual bool GetUseForDisplay ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves whether the proxy is being used for viewport display.

Returns

bool - True if the proxy is displayed in the viewport, otherwise false

SetUseForRendering()

virtual void SetUseForRendering ( bool  bUseProxy )

pure virtual

Allows to turn on or off the use of the proxy for rendering purposes.

Parameters

[in]

bUseProxy

- If true, the proxy is to be rendered instead of the xrefed scene entity, otherwise false

GetUseForRendering()

virtual bool GetUseForRendering ( ) const

pure virtual

Retrieves whether the proxy is being used for rendering purposes.

Returns

bool - True if the proxy is being rendered, otherwise false

IsIXRefProxy()

static bool IsIXRefProxy ( InterfaceServer &  is )

inlinestatic

Allows to determine whethe a scene entity is implements this interface.

Parameters

[in]

is

- Reference to scene entity

Returns

- true if the scene entity implements the IXRefProxy interface, false otherwise

                                                  {
        return (is.GetInterface(IID_XREF_PROXY) != NULL);
    };

GetInterface() [1/2]

static IXRefProxy * GetInterface ( InterfaceServer &  is )

inlinestatic

Retrieves the IXRefProxy interface from a scene entity.

Parameters

[in]

is

- Reference to scene entity

Returns

- Pointer to the IXRefProxy interface of the scene entity or NULL if it does not support the proxy feature

                                                         {
        return static_cast<IXRefProxy*>(is.GetInterface(IID_XREF_PROXY));
    };

GetID()

virtual Interface_ID GetID ( )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

This method overrides GetID() in those interfaces that do not publish metadata but instead have a unique Interface_ID for quick internal identification in implementation code that might be shared by a bunch of mixin interfaces.

Returns

The Interface_ID.

Default Implementation:

{ return GetDesc()->ID; }

Reimplemented from FPMixinInterface.

{ return IID_XREF_PROXY; }

GetDesc()

virtual FPInterfaceDesc * GetDesc ( )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

Returns a pointer to the class which contains the interface metadata.

Implements FPInterface.

{ return &mFPInterfaceDesc; }

FPSetProxyFileName()

virtual void FPSetProxyFileName ( const MCHAR *  fileName )

protectedpure virtual

Gets file name of xref proxy. Implemented by the system.

FPGetProxyFileName()

virtual const MCHAR * FPGetProxyFileName ( ) const

protectedpure virtual

Gets file name of xref proxy. Implemented by the system.

FPSetProxyItemName()

virtual void FPSetProxyItemName ( const MCHAR *  itemName )

protectedpure virtual

Sets item name of xref proxy. Implemented by the system.

GetInterface() [2/2]

virtual BaseInterface * GetInterface ( Interface_ID  id )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

Returns a pointer to the interface whose ID is specified.

Parameters:

Interface_ID id

The ID of the interface to return.

Default Implementation:

{ return NULL; }

Reimplemented from FPMixinInterface.

{ if (id == FPMIXININTERFACE_ID) return this; else return FPInterface::GetInterface(id); }
