# class PipelineSerializer

# Properties

Property Description
Name The name of the PipelineSerializer object. (Inherited from Object)

# 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 PipelineSerializer class. (Inherited from Object)
IsA Returns true if PipelineSerializer is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)
IsNull Returns true if the PipelineSerializer object is invalid. (Inherited from Object)
IsSameObjectAs Returns true if the PipelineSerializer object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
LoadPipelineBatchFromFile Load the pipeline batch definition to the given file and create a pipeline batch object as defined in this file.
LoadPipelineFromFile Load the pipeline definition to the given file and create a pipeline object as defined in this file, including settings.
NonNull Returns true if the PipelineSerializer object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
PrintInfo Prints the content/info of the PipelineSerializer object to the log. (Inherited from Object)
RemoveObserver Removes a previously added observer object. (Inherited from Object)
SavePipelineBatchToFile Save the pipeline batch definition and associated pipelines and scenes to the given file, which can be used to restore the pipeline batch through the LoadPipelineBatchFromFile method. Associated pipelines and scenes will be stored in the same directory as the pipeline batch file. Note that pipeline files are NOT meant for storage, only as a transient transfer format between processes and hosts. Do NOT store pipeline files for later use, as there is no guarantee that pipeline files will be compatible between different versions of Simplygon.
