Runtime Settings

Some OpenUSD Exchange behaviors are controllable via global static runtime settings, using OpenUSD’s TfEnvSetting mechanism.

To change the value of any setting from its default, you must set the associated environment variable before loading usdex_core or any OpenUSD module (e.g. tf). The environment variable for any setting exactly matches the c++ variable name (without any explicit namespace).

Alternatively, a single environment variable PIXAR_TF_ENV_SETTING_FILE can be used to supply a file containing key=value lines, where each key is a TfEnvSetting variable name and each value is in the expected range for that TfEnvSetting.

Variables

pxr::TfEnvSetting< bool > usdex::core::USDEX_ENABLE_OMNI_TRANSCODING

Set the USDEX_ENABLE_OMNI_TRANSCODING environment variable to enable/disable the use of omni_transcoding within getValidPrimName(s) , getValidChildName(s) , and getValidPropertyName(s) . Defaults true (transcoding is enabled).

Variables

pxr::TfEnvSetting<bool> usdex::core::USDEX_ENABLE_OMNI_TRANSCODING

Set the USDEX_ENABLE_OMNI_TRANSCODING environment variable to enable/disable the use of omni_transcoding within getValidPrimName(s), getValidChildName(s), and getValidPropertyName(s). Defaults true (transcoding is enabled).
