Creating an Array of CompoundAttributes

[Dilen Shah]

Hey guy,

How can i create an array of compound attributes? I am trying to create a node that has many input matrix and i extract and translation, rotation and scale values from each matrix.

I want to create compoundAttribute like this: [[(matrix1TX, matrix1TY, matrix1TZ), (matrix1RX, matrix1RY, matrix1RZ), (matrix1SX, matrix1SY, matrix1SZ)][(matrix2TX, matrix2TY, matrix2TZ), (matrix2RX, matrix2RY, matrix2RZ), (matrix2SX, matrix2SY, matrix2SZ)]] and so on and so forth.

D.

Found the solution here it is for anyone else who needs it or will need it in future:

initialize()

cAttr = OpenMaya.MFnCompoundAttribute()

cAttr.create("compoundArray", "cArray")

cAttr.setArray(True)

cAttr.setUsesArrayDataBuilder(True) // gives the main functionality for the array of compound array

compute()

inputArray = dataBlock.inputArrayValue(cArray) 

outBuild = inputArray.builder()

for i in range(0, n):

     outBuild.addElement(i)

inputArray.set(outBuild)
