free

Destroys the object.

Language	Syntax
C++	byte free()
Python	int free()

Return value

0 = Error destroying object.

1 = Success.

getName

Gets the name of the object.

Language	Syntax
C++	byte getName( char** pName)
Python	str getName()

Return value

C++

0 = Error getting name.

1 = Success.

Python

Object name.

setName

Sets the name of the object.

Language	Syntax
C++	byte setName( const char* pName )
Python	int setName( str pName )

Return value

0 = Error setting name.

1 = Success.

isMesh

Checks whether the object is a mesh.

Language	Syntax
C++	byte isMesh( byte& isMesh )
Python	int isMesh()

Return value

C++

0 = Error getting isMesh value.

1 = Success.

Python

0 = The object is not a mesh.

1 = The object is a mesh.

"" = Error.

isInstance

Checks whether the object is an instance.

Language	Syntax
C++	byte isInstance( byte& isInstance )
Python	int isInstance()

Return value

C++

0 = Error getting isInstance value.

1 = Success.

Python

0 = The object is not an instance.

1 = The object is an instance.

"" = Error.

getInstanced

If this Cobject is an instance this method returns its parent object.

Language	Syntax
C++	Cmaxwell::Cobject getInstanced()
Python	CmaxwellObject getInstanced()

Return value

Cmaxwell::Cobject reference to the instanced object. Null object if the object is not an instance, (Cmaxwell::Cobject::isNull() == true).

isRFRK

Language	Syntax
C++	byte isRFRK( byte& isRfrk )
Python	int isRFRK()

Return value

C++

0 = Error getting isRfrk value.

1 = Success.

Python

0 = Object is not a RFRK object.

1 = Object is a RFRK object.

"" = Error.

getRFRKParameters

Gets RealFlow parameters of the object if it is a RFRK object.

Language	Syntax
C++	byte getRFRKParameters( char& binSeqNames, char& rwName, char*& substractiveField, real& scale, real& resolution, real& polySize, real& radius, real& smooth, real& core, real& splash, real& maxVelocity, int& axis, real& fps, int& frame, int& offset, bool& flipNormals, int& rwTesselation, bool& mb, real& mbCoef )
Python	{ str 'binSeqNames', str 'rwName', str 'substractiveField', float 'scale', float 'resolution', float 'polySize', float 'radius', float 'smooth', float 'core', float 'splash', float 'maxVelocity', int 'axis', float 'fps', int 'frame', int 'offset', bool 'flipNormals', int 'rwTesselation', bool 'mb', float 'mbCoef' } getRFRKParameters()

Parameters

char*	binSeqNames	out	Comma separated list of full paths to .bin or .pd files.
char*	rwName	out	Full path to a realwave .sd file.
char*	substractiveField	out	'' or Null -> all particle fields are positive. i.e: substractiveField = '011010' -> six particle files, first, third and sixth are negative, and second, third and fifth are positive.
