Cleaning up HDA callbacks

Hi all,

I'm using hou.hipFile.addEventCallback in a HDA to update some things when the scene is saved. I have an OnDelete function that cleans up the callbacks with hou.hipFile.clearEventCallbacks().

Will that remove all callbacks including ones from other HDAs?

It's super handy to be able to update my HDA on scene save but I'm just a little worried that cleanup will break other things using callbacks...

Thanks,
Pete

Then to remove just specific callbacks you should use 
hou.hipFile.removeEventCallback(callback)

You can also query all registered callback using
hou.hipFile.eventCallbacks()

Thanks!

I went with this - 

def CleanUp(kwargs):
    callbacks = hou.hipFile.eventCallbacks()
    for x in range(len(callbacks)):
        if(callbacks[x] == addSceneEventCallback):
            hou.hipFile.removeEventCallback(callbacks[x])
