Object model diagram (or method of "dumping" objects)

Does either (or both) exist?

Hi,

Something like an “object model diagram” doesn’t exist as far as I know.
As for “dumping” objects, most objects in rhinocommon have delete methods to reclaim their used resources (e.g. Rhino.Geometry.Point.Dispose()).

Hi diff-arch and thanks for the reply!

I used to program in AutoCAD’s most widely-used API language (AutoLISP). They have a function called “vlax-dump-object” which displays a list of all of an objects properties and methods. The “dumping” must be an ActiveX term or something (which I don’t think most programmers are familiar with). I guess a better way to phrase my question would be whether or not there is a similar function in RhinoPython or RhinoCommon.

The picture is just a screen shot of AutoCAD after running the “dump” function on a leader object.

Generally in Python, you can iterate over class members and their values with vars(object.items()), however the object __dict__ needs to exist, and - if I recall correctly - this doesn’t work with RhinoCommon at least.

A workaround that I know of is using the inspect module:

Example:

import Rhino.Geometry as rg
import inspect

pt = rg.Point3d(0.1, 7.3, 1.34)

for member, value in inspect.getmembers(pt):
    print member, value
