Thanks for the response! I finally got it to work... I totally missed the callback function (obviously I didn't know much about the messaging system). You were right. All it took was adding a line to the processObjectPropertiesFamily function to capture that data.
************************************************************* The response message is ObjectProperties. Search the source for _PREHASH_ObjectProperties and you see where a callback is set using LLMessageSystem::setHandlerFuncFast. It's LLSelectMgr::processObjectProperties. You can either add a line in there to call your other function, or look into something like the patch here that would allow you to register multiple handlers: http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-2546 But, if you only want the object name, RequestObjectPropertiesFamily and its reply ObjectPropertiesFamily are cooler because you won't have to deselect the object!

I can successfully get an object and output it's Id, number of faces, etc. But, here is my problem... I really want to log the name of the object. Looking at the code, it seems that this requires sending a message request to the server. I've been trying to utilize some of the code in the LLSelectMgr class, specifically in the selectObjectOnly() function. I can't seem to get it to work, and I don't really want to use LLSelectMgr. I want my code to be completely separate from other core aspects of the viewer. So, how would I go about using the messenger? I guess where I'm getting confused is where it runs gMessageSystem->sendReliable( regionp->getHost());.Where is the response message to that stored? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
