How would I add an item to the Multi-Pass list (for example, the Reflection channel) in the Render Settings?

Here is a function that I wrote to insert a multipass channel into the render settings:

    
    
      
    
    
    
    
    
    BaseContainer* HybridMPChannel(LONG multipassChannel)
    
    
    
    
    {
    
    
    
    
    RenderData *renderData = GetActiveDocument()->GetActiveRenderData();
    
    
    
    
    if(!renderData) return NULL;
    
    
    
    
    BaseContainer *rdata = renderData->GetDataInstance();
    
    
    
    
    if(!rdata) return NULL;
    
    
    
    
    BaseContainer bc;
    
    
    
    
    BaseContainer *multipassData = rdata->GetContainerInstance(RDATA_MULTIPASS_CHANNELS);
    
    
    
    
    if(!multipassData)
    
    
    
    
    {
    
    
    
    
    GeData *mChannels = rdata->InsData(RDATA_MULTIPASS_CHANNELS, GeData(bc));
    
    
    
    
    multipassData = mChannels->GetContainer();
    
    
    
    
    if(!multipassData) return NULL;
    
    
    
    
    }
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    GeData* d = multipassData->InsData(multipassChannel,GeData(bc));
    
    
    
    
    BaseContainer *channelData = d->GetContainer();
    
    
    
    
    return channelData;
    
    
    
    
    }  
      
    
    
    
    
    
    BaseContainer *buffer = HybridMPChannel(VPBUFFER_REFLECTION);
    
    
    
    
    buffer->SetBool(RDATA_MULTIPASS_ACTIVE, TRUE);  
    

You can find all of the defined LONG's for the different mp channels in the RenderData class of the SDK.
