ICENodeInputPort Class Reference

Detailed Description

A ICENodeInputPort object represents the input port of an ICENode.

The ICENodeInputPort cannot connect to more than one ICENode. An ICENode can have more than one ICENodeInputPort.

Member Function Documentation

bool IsA ( siClassID  in_ClassID) const [virtual]

Returns true if a given class type is compatible with this API class.

Parameters:
in_ClassIDclass type.
Returns:
true if the class is compatible, false otherwise.

Reimplemented from ICENodePort.

siClassID GetClassID ( ) const [virtual]

Returns the type of the API class.

Returns:
The class type.

Reimplemented from ICENodePort.

ICENodeInputPort& operator= ( const ICENodeInputPort &  in_obj)

Creates an object from another object. The newly created object is set to empty if the input object is not compatible.

Parameters:
in_objconstant class object.
Returns:
The new ICENodeInputPort object.
ICENodeInputPort& operator= ( const CRef &  in_ref)

Creates an object from a reference object. The newly created object is set to empty if the input reference object is not compatible.

Parameters:
in_refconstant class object.
Returns:
The new ICENodeInputPort object.

Reimplemented from ICENodePort.

CValue GetValue ( double  in_time = DBL_MAX) const

Returns the port value as a CValue at a specific frame. The type of the value depends on ICENodePort::GetDataType. The value stored in this port is only accessible when the port is not connected. If the port is connected, it returns an empty CValue.

Note:
This property only returns values for simple types such as float, integer and boolean. Returning other value types is not yet supported. If the port is unable to retrieve the value, it returns an empty CValue.
Tip:
Values for non-supported types can be accessed with ICENodePort::GetParameters.
Parameters:
in_timeTime in frames. Defaults to the current frame if in_time is set with DBL_MAX.
Returns:
The port value.

This example demonstrates how to get a non-connected ICENodePort value at different times

CStatus PutValue ( const CValue &  in_val,
double  in_time = DBL_MAX 
)

Sets the port value as a CValue at a specific frame. The type of the value depends on ICENodePort::GetDataType. This method can be used only when the port is not connected. If the port is connected, the method has no effect.

Note:
Only simple types such as float, integer and boolean are supported. Other value types are not yet supported.
Tip:
Values for non-supported types can be set with ICENodePort.GetParameters.
Parameters:
in_valThe port value to set.
in_timeTime in frames. Defaults to the current frame if in_time is set with DBL_MAX.
Returns:
CStatus::OK success
CStatus::False Trying to set an un-supported value type.
CStatus::Fail Other failure.
