Detailed Description

The ICEDataModifierNode object represents a SetData node in an ICE graph. See the Softimage programmer guide for details on SetData.

The responsibility of an ICEDataModifierNode is to process the results obtained from the graph data flow into some real Softimage data.

Since:: 7.0

Example:

This example demonstrates how to log all the SetData nodes in a graph

        // Some helper function prototypes declaration

        TraverseNodeGraph( cubeICETree );

        // Graph traverser function
        void TraverseNodeGraph( const ICENode& in_node )
        {
