Description

This is a general, flexible context object that for use by callbacks. Instances of this object are used to pass information to the routines that implement a script-based PluginItem. The main reason context objects are used in Softimage is to ensure backward compatibility for Softimage plug-ins. In future versions it will be possible to add additional information and functionality to the context object without changing the signature of the callback routines.

Note: For more information on using the Context object in callbacks, see Callbacks for Self-Installing Plug-ins
