Usages

  1. otcontentadd [-l source_otl] table/operator section file

The table value specifies the class of the operator you want to modify. A list of valid table names is found in the help for the otwrite command. The operator value is the name of the specific operator type.

The section name is the name to use for the file inside the type definition. The file is the name of the file on disk to copy into the operator definition.

To access the data stored inside an operator definition, use a string like “opdef:/table/operator?section”. You can use this type of string anywhere Houdini accepts a file name.

To get a list of all data sections that exist in an operator definition, use the otcontentls command. Use otcontentdelete to remove a data section from an operator definition.
