Does Pixie support nested RiBegin~RiEnd pair

[yaoyansi]

Hi, all
I test  this code with the *.h and *.lib files in Pixie-win-2.2.6.zip.

int main(void)
{

    RiBegin("a.rib");
            RiColor(Color); 

RtContextHandle oldContext = RiGetContext();
RiBegin("b.rib");
RiColor(Color);
RiEnd();
RiContext( oldContext );

    RiEnd();

    return 0;
}

but the b.rib is not generated at all. It seems that the 
nested RiBegin~RiEnd pair is not supported in Pixie2.2.6.
And could you tell me whether the code on the trunk support this now?

Thank you
yaoyansi

Hi Yaoyansi,
Pixie does not support nested RiBegin/RiEnd. According to the interface, this is invalid. However, you can use RiArchieve to create rib files.
