Recursive python method help

[_stev_]

In your example, you need to call the object's "getChildren" method using the "self" parameter:



class myClass():
def __init__(self):
self.children = []

def getChildren(self, obj):
self.children.append(obj.Name)
for each in obj.Children:
self.getChildren(each)



Test it:


a = myClass()
a.getChildren( FBSystem().Scene.RootModel )
for name in a.children: print name



In a python class the first parameter self refers to the instance of the object you have created.

Awesome! yes I was just thinking about the very same thing walking back home . I like the 'rootModel' you have there, MB's ace!

Thanks again, (will definitely post in this forum with more questions)
