Hi,

okay I can load and execute a python script but is there a way to extent the language with global variables or similar (just like for the Coffee engine)?

Thanks in advance

I have no code I only found the example in the docs. Look out for ID_PYTHONSCRIPT.
I didn't know there was a pylib already. I check that, thanks for the hint. Anyway, at first glance I don't see anything that helps me with my question, so it would be nice if the support could give a direction or info on this.

Hi Samir,

Here's a small code example that shows how to add a global constant to c4d module:

void RegisterConstant()
{
    GePythonGIL gil; // gil must be created
    PythonLibrary pylib;
    
    _PyObject* mod = pylib.GetModule("c4d");
    if (mod)
    {
        pylib.InitConstant(mod, "constant", 30)
    }
}
  
Bool PluginMessage(id, data)
{
    switch (id)
    {
        case C4DPL_PYINITTYPES:
        RegisterConstant();
        break;
    }
    return true;
}
