Description
Used to determine if the object name have changed. See VS:Parametric State Notifications#vsoStateGetNameChng
This function should be called during the parametric reset event: 3: {kParametricRecalculate}
FUNCTION vsoStateGetNameChng(
hObj : HANDLE;
VAR outOldName : STRING;
VAR outNewName : STRING) : BOOLEAN;
def vs.vsoStateGetNameChng(hObj): return (BOOLEAN, outOldName, outNewName)
Parameters
hObj HANDLE Handle to the parametric object. Obtained by call to VS:GetCustomObjectInfo outOldName STRING Output parameter. Old object name. outNewName STRING Output parameter. New object name.
Example
VectorScript
BEGIN result := GetCustomObjectInfo(objectName, objectHand, recordHand, wallHand); vsoGetEventInfo(theEvent, message ); CASE theEvent OF 5: {kObjOnInitXProperties} BEGIN {enable eventing for this plug-in} SetPrefInt( 590, 1 ); {varParametricEnableStateEventing, kParametricStateEvent_ResetStatesEvent} result := SetObjPropVS(18, TRUE); {kObjXPropAcceptStates} END; 44: {kObjOnAddState} BEGIN message := vsoStateAddCurrent( objectHand, message ); END; 3: {kParametricRecalculate} BEGIN MoveTo( 5mm, 8mm ); CreateText( 'State events received after the last kParametricRecalculate:' ); IF vsoStateGetNameChng( objecthand, oldName, newName ) THEN BEGIN MoveTo( 0,-70mm ); CreateText( Concat( 'Obj name changed! oldName=', oldName, ' newName=', newName ) ); END; END;
