PRM_TOGGLE help

[daniel.fodor]

Hi!

Sorry if this is a basic question, I am very new to HDK and Houdini itself, I am starting to get the taste of it but I have some questions:

I want to create a custom SOP with a "built-in" switcher, here is my code:

 

//I tried to copy from the euclid/SOP_Euclid example, I have this func in my header(this should ask houdini if the checkbox is ticked):

bool SWITCH(fpreal t) { return (bool)evalInt(0, 0, t); }

...

//Here I set up the Toggle param

static PRM_Name names[] = {
	PRM_Name("switch","Switch"),
};

static PRM_Default  elevationDefault(500.0);

PRM_Template MySOP::myTemplateList[] = {
	PRM_Template(PRM_STRING,    1, &PRMgroupName, 0, &SOP_Node::pointGroupMenu,	0, 0, SOP_Node::getGroupSelectButton(GA_GROUP_POINT)),
	PRM_Template(PRM_TOGGLE,	1, &names[1]),
	PRM_Template(),
};

...

OP_ERROR MySOP::cookMySop(OP_Context& context)
{
	OP_AutoLockInputs inputs(this);
	if (inputs.lock(context) >= UT_ERROR_ABORT)
	{
		return error();
	}
	fpreal t = context.getTime();

	bool switcher = SWITCH(t);
	
	//Do something with my object...
	//Then here i want to make the switcher, my first idea was to make a PRM_TOGGLE param, and using it as a bool(like in the Euclid e.g), 
	//so for example if it's ticked, I want to move my object, if it isn't, I want to make it bigger (I know its a bad e.g: but I hope you get it)
	
	if(switcher)
	{
		//move my object
	}
	else
	{
		//make it bigger
	}

	//continue 

 

It compiles, but crashes Houdini with a seg. fault and I don't know what is the problem

Also, let me know if there is a better way of making a switcher

just a quick look:

///...

PRM_Template(PRM_TOGGLE, 1, &names[1]), // <-- shouldn't  be '0' here?

Thank you Symek, that fixed the crash!
Although the checkbox doesn't do anything(I tried to translate some points if it's checked)
Any ideas on that?
