Detailed Description

Dependency graph messages.

This class is used to register callbacks for dependency graph messages.

There are 6 types of add callback methods which will add callbacks for the following messages

• Parent Added
• Parent Removed
• Child Added
• Child Removed
• Child Reordered
• Instance Added
• Instance Removed

Methods exist to register callbacks for every time any DAG node is affected as well as methods that work on specific nodes. Each method returns an id which 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.

NOTE: It is possible to get Parent Added and Child Added messages before the node name has been set. This can happen if the node is newly created. Additionally, the MDagPath string path names passed to the callback may not be set as yet if the node has not been added to the model.
