Anyone know why the following code stopped working in 9.6 SDk ?

    
    
     ptagi = 0;  
     while( ptag = (PluginTag* )(op->GetTag(Tplugin, ptagi++)) )  
     {
    
    
    
    
    GePrint("Hello?  Anyone there?"); //--- this is never called
    
    
    
    
      
      if( ptag->GetType() == GTAG_PLUGID )  
      {  
       groups = ptag->GetData();  
       gCnt = groups.GetLong(GROUP_COUNT);  
       break;  
      }  
     }  
    

...the mesh in question DOES have a plugin tag on it (of type GTAG_PLUGID), but op->GetTag() is failing now.  I was using this code all over the place in previous versions, but for some reason it no longer works with the 9.6 SDK.
Do I need to start counting from 1 now or something?  ~baffled~

I take that back... that code still works with a 9.6 SDk compiled plugin in the R9.6 demo, but it does not work in the R10 demo... so the question still stands, but has now changed to why or how did that change in R10?
Thanks,
Keith

I think you made a mistake. You pass the PluginID to GetTag() like this:

  
LONG ptagi = 0;  
while( op->GetTag(GTAG_PLUGID, ptagi++) )  
{  
GePrint("Hello? Anyone there?"); //--- this is never called  
}  
[CODE]  
  
Admittely this is not very clear in the docs.  
  
cheers,

Seriously? Hmm... I wonder why the way I was using it (with the Tplugin type, as per the docs :) ) was working from 7.3 on up through 9.6?
This definately sounds like a change.  Of course the R10 SDK docs may have been updated to reflect this, but I hadn't seen those docs available yet.
Anyway, I'll give that a try - thanks much!

Hmm... that does seem to work - and as a bonus, it works either way in 9.6, so I can use the same plugin for 9.6 and 10 - thanks!
