Term

Term

Description

Use this callback to free memory allocated in the Init callback or perform other cleanup functions (typically used for C++ plug-ins). Generally, this callback is fired aft fired when a plug-in is removed from Softimage (just before Softimage calls XSIUnloadPlugin). For example, Term is triggered when you exit Softimage or unload the plug-in (either from the Plug-in Manager or by calling UnloadPlugin).

However, there are some variations, depending on the type of plug-in item.

Plug-in Item	Description
Property	Fired when a property is deleted.
Menu	Term is fired only if Init was fired at some point. If the menu was never opened, then Init was never fired and Term has nothing to do.

Syntax

// C#
public class <plugin-item_name>
{
   public bool Term( Context in_ctxt )
   {
       ...
   }
}

// C++
CStatus <plugin-item_name>_Term( CRef& in_context )
{
   ...
}

// JScript
function <plugin-item_name>_Term( in_context )
{
   ...
}

# Python

Function <plugin-item_name>_Term( in_context )
   ...
End Function

# PerlScript
