Save as IFC after file is opened

rubbcs — Thu, 05 Sep 2024 11:08:26 GMT

Hi,

I have a process want to do:

1. Open File.pln.

2. Check File.pln is opened and save as IFC by "Do_Save_IfcFile".

3. Quit Archicad.

I have followed this topic below and try to save as ifc file inside "APINotify_Open" event.

But "Do_Save_IfcFile" throws error seems the file is not fully opened.

I am using Archicad 26. Any ways I can save as ifc after file is fully opened? Thanks a lot.

Hi,

I'm afraid you cannot call ifc save function during the file opening operation. I'd suggest you to try APINotify_AllInputFinished.

HTH.

Thanks for your suggestion. I have tried "APINotify_AllInputFinished" but still fail with "APIERR_BADWINDOW" message.

Hi,

Please try the following code to see whether you can save as ifc file:

#include "SaveAndRestoreVariable.hpp" #include "ResourceIDs.h" #define SAVEIFC 'SIFC' // ============================================================================= // // Main functions // // ============================================================================= GSErrCode __ACENV_CALL SaveIFCFunction(GSHandle /* params */, GSPtr /* resultData */, bool /* silentMode */) { GSErrCode lastErr = NoError; ACAPI_KeepInMemory(true); API_ProjectInfo projectInfo = {}; lastErr = ACAPI_Environment(APIEnv_ProjectID, &projectInfo); if (lastErr != NoError || projectInfo.untitled) return APIERR_NOPLAN; // Set the output IFC file's locations (it's beside the plan file) IO::Name llName; projectInfo.location->GetLastLocalName(&llName); llName.DeleteExtension(); llName.AppendExtension("ifc"); projectInfo.location->SetLastLocalName(llName); // Get a suitable translator API_IFCTranslatorIdentifier firstTranslator; GS::Array<API_IFCTranslatorIdentifier> ifcExportTranslators; lastErr = ACAPI_IFC_GetIFCExportTranslatorsList (ifcExportTranslators); if (lastErr != NoError) { return APIERR_GENERAL; } else { if (DBVERIFY(!ifcExportTranslators.IsEmpty())) firstTranslator = ifcExportTranslators.GetFirst(); } // Set the output parameters API_FileSavePars fileSave = {}; fileSave.fileTypeID = APIFType_IfcFile; fileSave.file = projectInfo.location; // Set the output parameters for IFC API_SavePars_Ifc ifcPars = {}; ifcPars.subType = API_IFC; ifcPars.elementsToIfcExport = API_EntireProject; ifcPars.translatorIdentifier = firstTranslator; ifcPars.elementsSet = nullptr; lastErr = ACAPI_Automate(APIDo_SaveID, &fileSave, &ifcPars); return lastErr; } static GSErrCode AllInputNotificationHandler(API_NotifyEventID notifID, Int32 /*param*/) { if (notifID == APINotify_AllInputFinished) { API_ModulID mdid = {}; mdid.developerID = MDID_DEVELOPER_ID; mdid.localID = MDID_LOCAL_ID; ACAPI_Command_CallFromEventLoop(&mdid, SAVEIFC, 1L, nullptr, false, nullptr); } ACAPI_KeepInMemory(true); return NoError; } // ============================================================================= // // Required functions // // ============================================================================= // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Dependency definitions // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- API_AddonType __ACENV_CALL CheckEnvironment (API_EnvirParams* envir) { RSGetIndString (&envir->addOnInfo.name, ID_ADDON_INFO, 1, ACAPI_GetOwnResModule()); RSGetIndString (&envir->addOnInfo.description, ID_ADDON_INFO, 2, ACAPI_GetOwnResModule()); return APIAddon_Preload; } // CheckEnvironment // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Interface definitions // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- GSErrCode __ACENV_CALL RegisterInterface (void) { GSErrCode err = ACAPI_Register_SupportedService(SAVEIFC, 1L); return err; } // RegisterInterface // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Called when the Add-On has been loaded into memory // to perform an operation // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- GSErrCode __ACENV_CALL Initialize (void) { GSErrCode err = ACAPI_Install_ModulCommandHandler(SAVEIFC, 1L, SaveIFCFunction); err |= ACAPI_Notify_CatchProjectEvent(APINotify_AllInputFinished, AllInputNotificationHandler); return err; } // Initialize // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- // FreeData // called when the Add-On is going to be unloaded // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- GSErrCode __ACENV_CALL FreeData (void) { return NoError; } // FreeData

HTH.
