Description

An OutputPort object represents an output port of an Operator. The OutputPort is a lightweight object that connects between the operator and the Softimage object or Parameter that is changed by the Operator. An operator can have more than one OutputPort but it is recommended, for simplicity, to have just a single output connection.

For Self-installed custom operators the currently evaluated OutputPort is available via OperatorContext.OutputPort (or it may be bypassed entirely via OperatorContext.OutputTarget). For runtime scripted operators this is passed as the second argument to the Update function.
