HostUtils Class

Gets the serial number of the computer running Rhino.

Get the current operating system language.

The DeviceId is a unique, stable ID that anonymously identifies the device that Rhino is running on. It is computed based on hardware information that should not change when the OS is upgraded, or if commonly modified hardware are added or removed from the computer. The machine-specific information is hashed using a cryptographic hash to make it anonymous.

Name of the computer running Rhino. If the computer is part of a Windows Domain, the computer name has "@[DOMAIN]" appended.

Tests if this process is currently executing under the Mono runtime.

Tests if RhinoCommon is currently executing inside of the Rhino.exe process. There are other cases where RhinoCommon could be running; specifically inside of Visual Studio when something like a windows form is being worked on in the resource editor or running stand-alone when compiled to be used as a version of OpenNURBS.

Tests if this process is currently executing on the Mac OSX platform.

Tests if this process is currently executing on the Windows platform.

Gets or sets whether debug messages are printed to the command line.

Gets the auto install plug-in folder for machine or current user.

Don't change this function in ANY way unless you chat with Steve first! This function is called by Rhino on initial startup and the signature must be exact

Determines if the RDK is loaded.

Clear FPU exception and busy flags (Intel assembly fnclex)

Parses a plugin and create all the commands defined therein.

Parses a plugin and create all the commands defined therein.

Instantiates a plug-in type and registers the associated commands and classes.

Gets the debug dumps. This is a text description of the geometric contents. DebugDump() is intended for debugging and is not suitable for creating high quality text descriptions of an object.

Prints a debug message to the Rhino Command Line. The message will only appear if the SendDebugToCommandLine property is set to true.

Prints a debug message to the Rhino Command Line. The message will only appear if the SendDebugToCommandLine property is set to true.

Defines if Ole alerts ("Server busy") alerts should be visualized.

This function makes no sense on Mono.

Informs RhinoCommon of an exception that has been handled but that the developer wants to screen.

Strip file extension from file name and check to see if it is a valid Rhino backup file extension.

Strip file extension from file name and check to see if it is a valid Rhino file extension.

Call this method to convert a relative path to an absolute path relative to the specified path.

Recurses through the auto install plug-in folders and returns the directories containing "active" versions of plug-ins.

Returns list of directory names where additional assemblies (plug-ins, DLLs, Grasshopper components) may be located

For internal use only

For internal use only. Loads an assembly for dependency injection via IPlatformServiceLocator.

Only works on Windows. Returns null on Mac.

Makes sure all static RhinoCommon components is set up correctly. This happens automatically when a plug-in is loaded, so you probably won't have to call this method.

Makes sure all static RhinoCommon RDK components are set up correctly. This happens automatically when the RDK is loaded, so you probably won't have to call this method.

Initializes the ZooClient and Rhino license manager, this should get called automatically when RhinoCommon is loaded so you probably won't have to call this method.

DO NOT USE UNLESS YOU ARE CERTAIN ABOUT THE IMPLICATIONS.

This is an expert user function which should not be needed in most cases. This function is similar to a const_cast in C++ to allow an object to be made temporarily modifiable without causing RhinoCommon to convert the class from const to non-const by creating a duplicate.

You must call this function with a true parameter, make your modifications, and then restore the const flag by calling this function again with a false parameter. If you have any questions, please contact McNeel developer support before using!

Inspects a dll to see if it is compiled as native code or as a .NET assembly

Check to see if the file extension is a valid Rhino file extension.

Check to see if the file extension is a valid Rhino file extension.

Used to help record times at startup with the -stopwatch flag to help determine bottlenecks in start up speed

Adds a new dynamic command to Rhino.

For internal use only!!! Unhanded exception handler, writes stack trace to RhinoDotNet.txt file

Informs RhinoCommon of an message that has been handled but that the developer wants to screen.

Informs the runtime that the application is shutting down.

Makes sure all static RhinoCommon RDK components are de-initialized so they aren't calling into space when the RDK is unloaded.

Exception handler for exceptions occurring on the UI thread

Is raised when an exception is reported with one of the ExceptionReport(Exception) method.

Is raised when an exception is reported with one of the method.
