GetRField equivalent in SDK

[Gabe RC]

Hello,

I'm wondering if there is an equivalent to the vectorscript function "GetRField" in the C++ sdk. I would like to access the values of specific records inside a PIO.

Thanks!

Looks like VWFC::VWObjects::VWRecordObj has some methods for this, like GetParamValue(). Check VWRecordObj.h ... I couldn't find anything on the developer wiki.

How you get a VWRecordObj given a handle to an arbitrary object is a little fuzzy to me.

Hello,

the VWFC classes are wrappers on top of the SDK. Unfortunately, not very well documented.

The VWObjects namespace contains objects that are designed as wrappers of MCObjectHandle. Every class has two different constructors:

1. wrapping - the one that accepts MCObjectHandle

2. creating - the all others (they create a new object)

For the VWRecordObj you can just create instance like this:

VWRecordObj rec( hRecord );

Note that for parametric objects, it's much easier to use VWParametricObj, it directly allows you to access the parameters.
