Is there a way to get notified when a object(camera) is deleted or renamed?

from a coremessage method listen for EVMSG_CHANGE and then check the reference/pointer
on your object if its none, its gone 🙂 if it is still a GeListNode you can check the name.

I have registered a MessageData-Plugin and get EVMSG_CHANGE in the coremessage function. I am storing a BaseObject * m_object somewhere in my plugin. How should I check my pointer m_object if it is none? I mean m_object doesn't get NULL'ed automatically when the user deletes my object.

The EVMGS_CHANGE doesn't give me information about which object has changed or deleted, right?

Can you help me?

Store a BaseLink to the object instead of a direct pointer. It will allow you to check if the object
does still exist or not.

Ok. This works.

But I still have to find out which one was deleted and which one was renamed all by myself instead C4D is doing this for me, right?

I would expect that the SDK is doing this for me.

Well, do you want to checl for a specific object, if it was deleted or renamed, or the whole hierarchy?
