Overview
The Rhino SDK has a number of CRhinoGet derived classes that you can use to interactively get information from the user. Some of these classes include:
- CRhinoGetObject - SDK user interface tool used to get objects.
- CRhinoGetPoint - SDK user interface tool used to get points.
- CRhinoGetString - SDK user interface tool used to get strings.
- CRhinoGetNumber - SDK user interface tool used to get floating point values.
- CRhinoGetInteger - SDK user interface tool used to get integer values.
- CRhinoGetAngle - SDK user interface tool used to get angles.
- CRhinoGetDistance - SDK user interface tool used to get distances.
- CRhinoGetOption - SDK user interface tool used to get command line options.
Each CRhinoGet derived classes can, in addition to its primary function, prompt the user for additional options. These options display on the command following the developer specified prompt, and appear as clickable hyperlinks.
The following example code demonstrates how to add command line options to some user interaction. In this example, we use the CRhinoGetOption class, which is only capable of displaying command line options. But, we could have used any of the above CRhinoGet derived classes.

list_items[1] = RHCMDOPTVALUE(L"Item1");
list_items[2] = RHCMDOPTVALUE(L"Item2");
list_items[3] = RHCMDOPTVALUE(L"Item3");
list_items[4] = RHCMDOPTVALUE(L"Item4");
