Detailed Description

Meta attributes of a stream: Vst::IStreamAttributes.

• [host imp]
• [extends IBStream]
• [released: 3.6.0]
• [optional]

Interface to access preset meta information from stream, used, for example, in setState in order to inform the plug-in about the current context in which the preset loading occurs (Project context or Preset load (see StateType)) or used to get the full file path of the loaded preset (if available).
