# ObjExp : ExporterPlugin

The ObjExp ExporterPlugin introduced in 3ds Max 2010 exposes an interface to access the ASCII-based INI files location and name of the exporter dialog. The settings can then be queried and modified using the regular MAXScript INI settings functions getIniSetting() and setIniSetting().

ObjExp Interfaces:

    Interface: iobjexp

Methods:

    <TSTR by value>objExp.getIniName ()

Returns the name of the Obj Exporter Settings file.

    <TSTR by value>objExp.getPresetIniName ()

Returns the name of the Obj Exporter Preset file.

EXAMPLE:
    --Open the INI file for editing in the MAXScript Editor
    edit (objexp.getIniName())

    --Alternatively, use INI file access to read and write:
    theINI =objimp.getIniName()
    getIniSettingtheINI--get INI file categories
    -->#("General", "Geometry", "Material", "Output", "Optimize")

    --get the keys of the General category:
    getIniSetting theINI"General"
    -->#("UseLogging", "Preset", "MapSearchPath")

    --get the value of the General >Use Logging key:
    getIniSetting theINI"General" "UseLogging"
    -->"1"

    --Turn Loggingoff:
    setIniSetting theINI"General" "UseLogging" "0"
    -->true
