This document contains C++ code for a Maya plugin that defines a command called "getPoints" to retrieve and output the vertex points of a selected mesh geometry. The code defines a getMeshPoint class that inherits from MPxCommand and overrides required methods. The doIt method gets the selected object, iterates through its polygons and vertices, appending the points to an array which is then output. The plugin registers and deregisters the new command on initialization and cleanup.
