Member Function Documentation

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DExImportFilter::DoImport (  IMCFile *  file, I3DShScene *  scene, I3DShTreeElement *  fatherTree )  [pure virtual]

Imports a file into a scene. It is called either by using the File->Open or File->Import. Parameters: file  file that is imported scene  the scene in which you want to add the content of the file fatherTree  is the root of the imported scene. You should add all the imported instances/groups as child of it. If fatherTree is NULL, then you should import everything in the Universe of the scene. Implemented in TBasic3DImportFilter.

virtual boolean MCCOMAPI I3DExImportFilter::Prepare (  IMCFile *  file, I3DShScene *  scene, I3DShTreeElement *  fatherTree )  [pure virtual]

Is called before the actual import starts. Usually you do not need to implement this method. Parameters: file  The file that is imported. scene  The scene into which we import. fatherTree  A pointer to the tree element under which the imported objects should be inserted. Implemented in TBasic3DImportFilter.

virtual boolean MCCOMAPI I3DExImportFilter::WantsOptionDialog (   )  [pure virtual]

Returns true if an option dialog should be opened. Implemented in TBasic3DImportFilter.

virtual boolean MCCOMAPI I3DExImportFilter::WantsTopScene (   )  [pure virtual]

Called by the shell to determine if objects should placed directly in the scene or in a Master Group. Note: This call is only used for "import"and not for "open". Returns: True if the imported objects should be placed in the main scene. False if the imported objects should be placed in a master group. Implemented in TBasic3DImportFilter.
