Hi,

I'm creating an XPresso file with a Range Mapper Node.
However, getting the Input Inport gives me problems.

GvPort* rangemapperInputInPort = rangeMapperNode->GetInPort(0);

This doesn't give me the Inport.
Yet:

GvPort* rangeMapperOutputOutPort = rangeMapperNode->GetOutPort(0);

gives me the Outport.

How should I get the input port??

Thanks in advance for your help and time!

Hi Casimir,

I quickly tested this using a Python script and it simply worked as expected. Nothing special needed. As Python in the end makes use of the C++ API, I have no reason to believe it's not working in C++.
Can you perhaps provide me with some more code, to check what is going on on your side?

Hi Andreas,

Here is some more code:

  
XPressoTag* footGoalXPressoTag;  
  if (doFrontSide)  
  {  
      if (doLeftGoalSide)  
      {

          if (!footGoalXPressoTag) return false;  
          if (doLeftSide)  
          {  
              footGoalXPressoTag->SetName("Left_Front_Left_Foot_Goal_XPresso_Tag");

I hope this helps finding the problem.
Thanks for your help and time!!

Hi Casimir,

pssst, I won't tell anybody, but please have a look at the error check after GetPort().

Hi Andreas,

Hahahaha, like you said in that post with Dan, I also have my moments

You can mark this thread as junk

No problem 
Unfortunately we are out of [JUNK] tags, so it is simply solved.
And I guess, we all have these kind of moments.
