int HAPI_AttributeInfo::count

Number of attributes. This count will match the number of values given the owner. For example, if the owner is HAPI_ATTROWNER_VERTEX this count will be the same as the HAPI_PartInfo::vertexCount. To be clear, this is not the number of values in the attribute, rather it is the number of attributes. If your geometry has three 3D points then this count will be 3 (not 3*3) while the HAPI_AttributeInfo::tupleSize will be 3.

HAPI_AttributeOwner HAPI_AttributeInfo::originalOwner

When converting from the Houdini native GA geometry format to the GT geometry format HAPI uses, some attributes might change owners. For example, in Houdini GA curves can have points shared by vertices but the GT format only supports curve vertices (no points). This means that if you had point attributes on a curve in Houdini, when it comes out of HAPI those point attributes will now be vertex attributes. In this case, the HAPI_AttributeInfo::owner will be set to HAPI_ATTROWNER_VERTEX but the HAPI_AttributeInfo::originalOwner will be HAPI_ATTROWNER_POINT.

HAPI_Int64 HAPI_AttributeInfo::totalArrayElements

Total number of elements for an array attribute. An array attribute can be thought of as a 2 dimensional array where the 2nd dimension can vary in size for each element in the 1st dimension. Therefore this returns the total number of values in the entire array. This should be used to determine the total storage size needed by multiplying with HAPI_AttributeInfo::storage. Note that this will be 0 for a non-array attribute.

int HAPI_AttributeInfo::tupleSize

Number of values per attribute. Note that this is NOT the memory size of the attribute. It is the number of values per attributes. Multiplying this by the size of the HAPI_AttributeInfo::storage will give you the memory size per attribute.

Definition at line 1792 of file HAPI_Common.h.

HAPI_AttributeTypeInfo HAPI_AttributeInfo::typeInfo

Attribute type info This is used to help identify the type of data stored in an attribute. Using the type is recommended over using just an attribute's name to identify its purpose.
