static USDSHADE_API std::pair<TfToken, UsdShadeAttributeType> UsdShadeUtils::GetBaseNameAndType ( const TfToken & fullName )

static

Given the full name of a shading attribute, returns it's base name and shading attribute type.

static USDSHADE_API SdfPath UsdShadeUtils::GetConnectedSourcePath ( const UsdShadeConnectionSourceInfo & srcInfo )

static

For a valid UsdShadeConnectionSourceInfo, return the complete path to the source property; otherwise the empty path.

static USDSHADE_API TfToken UsdShadeUtils::GetFullName	(	const TfToken &	baseName,
		const UsdShadeAttributeType	type
	)

static

Returns the full shading attribute name given the basename and the shading attribute type. baseName is the name of the input or output on the shading node. type is the UsdShadeAttributeType of the shading attribute.

static USDSHADE_API std::string UsdShadeUtils::GetPrefixForAttributeType ( UsdShadeAttributeType sourceType )

static

Returns the namespace prefix of the USD attribute associated with the given shading attribute type.

static USDSHADE_API UsdShadeAttributeType UsdShadeUtils::GetType ( const TfToken & fullName )

static

Given the full name of a shading attribute, returns its shading attribute type.

static USDSHADE_API UsdShadeAttributeVector UsdShadeUtils::GetValueProducingAttributes	(	UsdShadeInput const &	input,
		bool	shaderOutputsOnly = `false`
	)

static

Find what is connected to an Input or Output recursively.

GetValueProducingAttributes implements the UsdShade connectivity rules described in UsdShadeAttributeResolution .

When tracing connections within networks that contain containers like UsdShadeNodeGraph nodes, the actual output(s) or value(s) at the end of an input or output might be multiple connections removed. The methods below resolves this across multiple physical connections.

An UsdShadeInput is getting its value from one of these sources:

If the input is not connected the UsdAttribute for this input is returned, but only if it has an authored value. The input attribute itself carries the value for this input.
If the input is connected we follow the connection(s) until we reach a valid output of a UsdShadeShader node or if we reach a valid UsdShadeInput attribute of a UsdShadeNodeGraph or UsdShadeMaterial that has an authored value.

An UsdShadeOutput on a container can get its value from the same type of sources as a UsdShadeInput on either a UsdShadeShader or UsdShadeNodeGraph. Outputs on non-containers (UsdShadeShaders) cannot be connected.

This function returns a vector of UsdAttributes. The vector is empty if no valid attribute was found. The type of each attribute can be determined with the UsdShadeUtils::GetType function.

If shaderOutputsOnly is true, it will only report attributes that are outputs of non-containers (UsdShadeShaders). This is a bit faster and what is need when determining the connections for Material terminals.

Note: This will return the last attribute along the connection chain that has an authored value, which might not be the last attribute in the chain itself.; When the network contains multi-connections, this function can return multiple attributes for a single input or output. The list of attributes is build by a depth-first search, following the underlying connection paths in order. The list can contain both UsdShadeOutput and UsdShadeInput attributes. It is up to the caller to decide how to process such a mixture.

static USDSHADE_API UsdShadeAttributeVector UsdShadeUtils::GetValueProducingAttributes	(	UsdShadeOutput const &	output,
		bool	shaderOutputsOnly = `false`
	)

static

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
