Would you please give me a full list of file format description strings?

[Anonymous]

I found this in \FBX SDK\2014.2.1\samples\ConvertScene\main.cxx.

const char* lFileTypes[] =
{
    "_dae.dae",            "Collada DAE (*.dae)",
    "_fbx7binary.fbx", "FBX binary (*.fbx)",
    "_fbx7ascii.fbx",  "FBX ascii (*.fbx)",
    "_fbx6binary.fbx", "FBX 6.0 binary (*.fbx)",
    "_fbx6ascii.fbx",  "FBX 6.0 ascii (*.fbx)",
    "_obj.obj",            "Alias OBJ (*.obj)",
    "_dxf.dxf",            "AutoCAD DXF (*.dxf)"
};

 And lFileTypes is used in line 108:

lSdkManager->GetIOPluginRegistry()->FindWriterIDByDescription(lFileTypes[i*2+1]);

 Below is the doc of function FindWriterIDByDescription:

     int FindWriterIDByDescription(const char* pDesc) const
        Searches for the Writer ID by the file format description.
        Parameters
        pDesc    The file format description.
        Returns
        The Writer ID if found, if not found, returns -1.

So where is the complete list of strings that represent supported file types and versions, which can be used as the argument of function FindWriterIDByDescription?

For example, if I want to export a fbxscene to a fbx file of version 7.3/7.2/7.1/7.0, what's the corresponding string?

For another example, if I want to export a fbxscene to a dae file of version 1.4/1.5, what's the corresponding string?

PS:

    All formats and versions above are said to be supported in the sdk doc(http://docs.autodesk.com/FBX/2014/ENU/FBX-SDK-Documentation/files/GUID-0B122E01-7DB8-48E3-AADA-5E85A...).

You can print them out yourself:

for (int i=0; i < pManager->GetIOPluginRegistry()->GetReaderFormatCount(); i++) {
 FbxString lDesc = pManager->GetIOPluginRegistry()->GetReaderFormatDescription(i);
 printf("%d, Reader: %s\n", i, lDesc );
}

for (int i=0; i < pManager->GetIOPluginRegistry()->GetWriterFormatCount(); i++) {
 FbxString lDesc = pManager->GetIOPluginRegistry()->GetWriterFormatDescription(i);
 printf("%d, Writer: %s\n", i, lDesc );
}

Thanks. That's it.

But why such infomation is not documented?

Hi cloudss,
I have not worked on the FBX SDK for years now, but I forwarded your demand to the FBX SDK developers.
