DataObjectFuture Object

Derived from: Future Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::core" and the header file is <Core/Dashboard/DataObjectFuture.h>

Description

Used to check the state of getting data associated with an object where the associated data typically exists on the cloud.

Methods

Name Description
classType Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType().

Properties

Name Description
dataObject Returns the DataObject when the data has become available, (state returns FinishedFutureState). Returns null if the operation is still running or has failed.
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
objectType This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object.

It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
state Returns the current state of the process associated with this future.
