      Howdy,

      When description link elements are created in GetDDescription, how do I use DESC_REFUSE and DESC_ACCEPT? The SDK doc says this about them:

      DESC_ACCEPT - BaseContainer - Contains the accepted IDs as strings. (E.g. GetString(5155) == "Obase".)

      DESC_REFUSE - BaseContainer - Contains the refused IDs as strings. (E.g. GetString(5155) == "Obase".)

      Should I be using SetContainer(LONG id, const BaseContainer& s)
      If so, how does it work? The second parameter is a BaseContainer but DESC_ACCEPT and DESC_REFUSE need to contain strings (E.g. GetString(5155) == "Obase".).

      Thanks in advance for any help.

      Adios,
      Cactus Dan

          Yes, your guess was correct:

              
              
              descbc->GetContainerInstance(DESC_ACCEPT)->SetString(5155, "Obase"); // 5155 == Obase

              Well, I'm doing something wrong, because now it's crashing Cinema.

              Here's what I tried:

              for (i=5; i<=linkCount; i++)
              {
                   BaseContainer bc2 = GetCustomDataTypeDefault(DTYPE_BASELISTLINK);
                             
                   bc2.SetLong(DESC_CUSTOMGUI,CUSTOMGUI_LINKBOX);
                   bc2.SetString(DESC_NAME,"Target " + LongToString(i));
                   bc2.SetLong(DESC_ANIMATE,DESC_ANIMATE_ON);
                   
                   if (!description->SetParameter(DescLevel(linkID,DTYPE_BASELISTLINK,0),bc2,DescLevel(ADD_CONTROLER))) return FALSE;
                   
                   const BaseContainer *descBC = description->GetParameter(DescLevel(linkID),bc2,NULL);
                   
                   descBC->GetContainerInstance(DESC_ACCEPT)->SetString(5102,"Obase");
                   descBC->GetContainerInstance(DESC_REFUSE)->SetString(5102,"Ospline");
                   
                   linkID++;
              }

              I don't think I understood the correct usage.

              Adios,

                Where is 'linkCount' coming from and being set? Using a member variable like that has caused me problems and headaches. I store counts in a LINK and extract to a regular member variable as needed to avoid them.

                Is it true that you want the same ID for both DESC_ACCEPT and DESC_REFUSE?

                  The variable "linkCount" is stored in the tags BaseContainer and retrieved just before the loop with:

                  LONG linkCount = tag->GetData().GetLong(LINK_COUNT);

                  The value stored in the BaseContainer is updated when the Add and Subtract buttons are clicked.
