Undocumented AC28 API change: ACAPI_IFC_APIGuidToIFCGuid

torokze — Tue, 20 Aug 2024 09:09:29 GMT

The API function ACAPI_IFC_APIGuidToIFCGuid has been removed from the Archicad 28 SDK. There is no information about the removal and replacement. Can I get more info?

Thanks

Hi!

I haven't used it myself, but from the example project IFC_Test I think the new equivalent mechanism is:

API_Elem_Head head{}; head.guid = elementGuid; auto objectID = IFCAPI::GetObjectAccessor ().CreateElementObjectID (head);

Maybe you also need GetGlobalId. Also check out IFCAPI::v1::ObjectAccessor and the mentioned example project.

Hope that helps,
Bernd

Did you get this working? Struggling with the same issue here.
