Introduced

Description

The FxOperator object represents an operator located in a FxTree. The FxOperator generally contains several input connections and one output connection. There are exceptions: for example the "File Input" FxOperator does not have any input and the "File Output" FxOperator does not have any output. Each connection has an index, which is used to identify the connection in many of the FxOperator mehods. To find out how many connections an FXOperator has, use the FxOperator.ConnectionCount property. This property also indicates that valid indexes for connection identification are ranged between 0 and (FxOperator.ConnectionCount - 1).
