Usage ¶
getParmStringValues(session: hapi.Session, node_id: int, evaluate: bool, start: int, length: int) → list of int
Fill an array of parameter string handles. These handles must be used in conjunction with hapi.getString to get the actual string values. This is more efficient than calling hapi.getParmStringValue individually for each parameter value.
session
The session of Houdini you are interacting with. See hapi.Session for more on sessions. Pass None to just use the default in-process session.
node_id
The node id.
evaluate
Whether or not to evaluate the string expression. For example, the string “$F” would evaluate to the current frame number. So, passing in evaluate = False would give you back the string “$F” and passing in evaluate = True would give you back “1” (assuming the current frame is 1).
start
First index of range. Must be at least 0 and at most hapi.NodeInfo.parmStringValueCount - 1.
length
Must be at least 1 and at most hapi.NodeInfo.parmStringValueCount - start.
Returns values_array as a list of int.
