Python Example

#
# This example goes through the list of shader definitions in Softimage, 
# looks for arrays of structures and prints the parameter names as well
# as the ProgID of the owning shader definition
#
from sipyutils import *
si = si()
si.NewScene("", 0)
for shaderdef in si.ShaderDefinitions :
        for paramdef in shaderdef.InputParamDefs.Definitions :
                if paramdef.IsArray :
                        underlying = paramdef.ItemDef2
                        if underlying.IsStructure :
                                log("Found an array of structures for %s in %s" % (paramdef.Name, shaderdef.ProgID))
# Expected results:
# INFO : Found an array of structures for lights in Softimage.material-phong.1.0
# INFO : Found an array of structures for lights in Softimage.material-lambert.1.0
