how to get the mesh object's name?

    I am new in CS and CEL;
    When I run the walktut in CEL , I found some questions, plesae help me !!

       1. In "walktut_world" file it defines a lot of mesh objects like "cube.001, cube.002, ……" ,I don't know what are the meaning of them, are they mean rooms in the world or other things?

       2. In "walktut_world" application , it mentions "region" and "zone" many times and when it create a player and put the player in a region ,it uses a region's name to put the player into the region, the code is followed:

  csRef<iPcMesh> pcmesh = CEL_QUERY_PROPCLASS_ENT (player_entity, iPcMesh);
  pcmesh->SetPath ("/cellib/objects");
  pcmesh->SetMesh ("test", "cally.cal3d");
  if (!pcmesh->GetMesh ())
    return ReportError ("Error loading model!");

  if (pczonemgr->PointMesh ("player", "main", "Camera"))
    return ReportError ("Can't find region or start position in region!");

 but in "walktut_world" file I can't found the region name "main" , I don't know how is it to get the region's name?

Please help me! Thank you very much!!!

Mesh objects are geometrical objects. i.e. things you can see and that have a triangle mesh.

Walktut uses the default region. That is not defined in the world file. It is created automatically inc code.

Greetings,

   The game world is make up of many rooms, and they are named when they are builded. How can i get the name of the room using c++ code?

I suppose you mean sectors? For any CS object (sector, mesh object, factory, ...) you can always do object->QueryObject()->GetName() to get the name.

Greetings,

   uh, Yes, it is!!!  Thank you!!
   
   In walktut application,   it is using the code to build a zone and region with the name of "main", then loading the world of  "walktut_world"  for the game,  Is the zone/region means "walktut_world" . or they are only the part of the world?!

The code to build the zone and region is follow:

csRef<iPcZoneManager> zonemgr = CEL_QUERY_PROPCLASS_ENT (level_entity,
     iPcZoneManager);
  iCelZone* zone = zonemgr->CreateZone ("main");
  iCelRegion* region = zonemgr->CreateRegion ("main");
  zone->LinkRegion (region);

  Now i get a point which points to sector , if a want to get the name of the sector , can i do like this :

   iSector* sector = pcmesh->GetMesh ()->GetMovable ()->GetSectors ()->Get (0);
   char *name = sector->QueryObjec->GetName();

yes almost. Use QueryObject(). Not QueryObjec
