magneto Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Some pages show the "object not found" 404 page, such as this one: http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini11.0/hom/hou/parm Where can I find these pages, or were they never written before? Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magneto Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) Thanks man, I opened it from here though http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini11.0/hom/hou/evalParm Actually I just noticed, that page title is wrong, the actual function name is lowercase, so: hou.parm not: hou.Parm So links on evalParm page are correct, but the actual pages are wrong.

3dbeing Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) Well to be pedantic.. and I'm so good at being pedantic. there is hou.Parm and then there is hou.parm hou.Parm is a class hou.parm is a function http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini11.0/hom/hou/parm_ hou.parm() returns an object of type hou.Parm Edited January 3, 2012 by 3dbeing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopbin9 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Yea, that is so stupid. I wish sidefx didn't do that. Name classes and functions the same, then make the two commonly used things in the Hou. There are a couple of other examples where they do this, but can't remember off the top of my head. hou.parm() should be renamed to hou.getParm() I'm sure some techy developer at sidefx will hold his breath and turn blue while another developers explains at great length why they can't, won't, refuse, and why I'm stupid for requesting it. One day, the developers will fall and the artists will rule the earth! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magneto Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 @3dbeing, I didn't know that, hmm ok that's interesting. @hobkin, that's what I would do too personally. Although I prefer property like structures, not sure if Python has them, i.e. point.pos (get/set) Also what will happen to artists who can do both? (hybrids). Natural selection might favor them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be like the Morlocks, living underground ruling the virgin developer nerds outcast to the surface of planet. If they don't program what we want we'll devour their flesh and have our way with their woman. I don't know what will happen sooner. Developers learn to write friendlier code or we wait a million years and evolve into the Morlocks. Edited January 3, 2012 by hopbin9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edward Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 So links on evalParm page are correct, but the actual pages are wrong. Personally, I think the links on http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini11.1/hom/hou/evalParm are wrong as they are missing a trailing underscore. Log a documentation bug.
