# class BinaryExporter

BinaryExporter stores the geometry data into a binary file, that is specific for Simplygon. Please note that the binary file is only intended for temporary storage, and that no compatibility between versions of Simplygon is guaranteed.

WARNING

This class is marked as deprecated and will be removed in a future version.

# Properties

Property Description
ExportCascadedScenes Flag to control if cascaded scenes should be included in the export (note that not all file formats support this). (Inherited from GraphicsExporter)
ExportFilePath The main export file path. This is the main file being written to, and must always be set. (Inherited from GraphicsExporter)
ForceTriangleExport Flag to force exporters that are capable of exporting quads using the information in the QuadFlags GeometryData field to ignore the quad flags and convert everything to triangles. (Inherited from GraphicsExporter)
Name The name of the BinaryExporter object. (Inherited from Object)
PrimaryTexCoordName The name of the texcoord level to use as primary level in case the file format only supports a single texture coordinate layer. If the primary level name is not set, the first found level will be used as primary level. (Inherited from GraphicsExporter)
ReferenceExportMode Export mode for referenced external files in the scene, such as references to textures. File formats which do not support external references will ignore the setting and always embed the data. (Inherited from GraphicsExporter)

# Methods

Method Description
AddObserver Adds a user-defined observer object to the interface, that will receive events from the interface. (Inherited from Object)
GetClass Get the name of the BinaryExporter class. (Inherited from Object)
IsA Returns true if BinaryExporter is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)
IsNull Returns true if the BinaryExporter object is invalid. (Inherited from Object)
IsSameObjectAs Returns true if the BinaryExporter object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
NonNull Returns true if the BinaryExporter object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
PrintInfo Prints the content/info of the BinaryExporter object to the log. (Inherited from Object)
RemoveObserver Removes a previously added observer object. (Inherited from Object)
Run Runs the export. Note that all parameters must be setup before importing. (Inherited from GraphicsExporter)
SetScene The scene to export. (Inherited from GraphicsExporter)
SetSelectionSet The selection set (of nodes from the scene) to export. (Inherited from GraphicsExporter)

# Static methods

Method Description
IsClassA Returns true if the class is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)
SafeCast SafeCast makes sure the input object is of a class that can be cast into spBinaryExporter, and if this is the case, returns the object cast into spBinaryExporter. (Inherited from Object)
