The dictionary object contains application definitions such as
siFamily objects. It also provides a
very handy way to get an object using it's path name with the
Dictionary.GetObject
method. The Dictionary object is a member of the Application object.
Note: This object should not be confused with the
"Scripting.Dictionary" ActiveX object available to JScript and
VBScript. The Scripting.Dictionary object is useful as a collection
for handling named values, whereas this object provides information
only about Softimage objects. Tip: See siFamily for a list of available families in
the object model.
