FBX objects: class KFbxObject

An FBX object is an instance of class KFbxObject or of any class derived from KFbxObject. Almost half of the documented classes in FBX SDK are derived from KFbxObject.

An FBX object:

• Must be created using its Create() method, which must specify the SDK manager object responsible for managing memory for the FBX object.
• Must be destroyed using its Destroy() method.
• Has a unique identifier that is set by FBX and that you can use but cannot change.
• Has a name (e.g., “Camera_1”, “Upper_Arm”) that typically will appear in a user interface. You can set the name of any FBX object to a null string. This name does not need to be unique for FBX SDK. However, other applications might not support duplicate object names.
• Can have a name that is qualified by a namespace (e.g., “MyNameSpace::Camera_1”).
• Can be selected and deselected.
• Contains a set of properties that store and manage strongly typed data. See FBX properties: class KFbxProperty and KFbxTypedProperty.
• Can be queried to enumerate all the FBX properties that it contains.
• Can use connections to manage its relationships with other FBX objects. See Connections.
• Can contain user data, i.e., can point to a buffer that contains data that is not managed by FBX SDK. See Customizing FBX SDK.
