Investigate why some Mesh functions not currently wrapped

[pmolodo]

There are a number of api functions which are currently disabled, but there doesn't seem to be a clear reason why. A large number of them are on Mesh.

Investigate whether more of these functions could / should be enabled.

I got a list by running this code:

import pymel.core as pm
import maya.cmds as cmds
import pymel.internal.factories as fac
import pymel.internal.factories as factories

fac.loadCmdCache()

couldBeEnabled = {}

numMethods = 0
for mayaType, parents, _ in factories.nodeHierarchy:
    pyNodeTypeName = factories.getPymelTypeName(mayaType)
    existingCls = getattr(pm.nt, pyNodeTypeName)
    apicls = factories.toApiFunctionSet(mayaType)
    if not apicls:
        continue
    apiClsName = apicls.__name__
    classInfo = fac.apiClassInfo[apiClsName]

    methInfo = classInfo['methods']
    for methodName, overloads in methInfo.items():
        basePymelName = classInfo.get('pymelMethods', {}).get(methodName, methodName)
        pymelName, overrideData, renamed = factories._getApiOverrideNameAndData(
                            pyNodeTypeName, basePymelName)
        if overrideData.get('enabled', True):
            continue
        if hasattr(existingCls, pymelName):
            continue
        validOverloads = []
        for i, overload in enumerate(overloads):
            argHelper = fac.ApiArgUtil(apiClsName, methodName, i)
            if argHelper.canBeWrapped() and not overload.get('deprecated'):
                validOverloads.append(i)
        if validOverloads:
            data = {'overloads': validOverloads}
            if pymelName != methodName:
                data['pymelName'] = pymelName
            numMethods += 1
            couldBeEnabled.setdefault(pyNodeTypeName, {})[methodName] = data

from pprint import pprint
pprint(couldBeEnabled)
print(numMethods)

...which output this:
