Detailed Description

Your object should derive from this interface if you want to register extra parameters (parameters that are not in the parameter map). This allows you to register a dynamic number of parameters

Member Function Documentation

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DExAnimated::CopyTimeData (  IMCUnknown *  dest  )  [pure virtual]
 

Is called during clone to copy the animation data associated with the extra parameters registered in RegisterParams().

Parameters:
dest A pointer to the destination component.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DExAnimated::InvalidateCaches (  int32  itsID  )  [pure virtual]
 

Invalidates caches associated with an animated parameter. In most cases this method should do nothing.

Parameters:
itsID The ID of the parameter.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DExAnimated::RegisterParams (   )  [pure virtual]
 

This functions is called by the shell to register extra parameters for the object. Here an example of how to register an extra parameter:

           
            TMCCountedPtr<ITimeBased> timeBased;
            QueryInterface(IID_ITimeBased, (void**)&timeBased);
            ThrowIfNil(timeBased);
              
            I3DShTimeBasedData* timeBasedData = timeBased->GetTimeBasedDataNoAddRef();
              
            if (MCVerify(timeBasedData))
            {
              real param=0;
              timeBasedData->SetParam(&param,"Dynamic Param",'temp',kReal32ParamType);
            }
