Config IFC Translators Settings by C++

rubbcs — Tue, 13 Aug 2024 04:28:33 GMT

Hi,

I am new on Archicad C++ API and using Archicad 26.

As I would like to design a workflow to export IFC, I found "ACAPI_Automate(APIDo_SaveID, &fsp, &pars_ifc)" can be used to select IFC translator and save as IFC.

However, i cannot find any way to change the IFC translator's setting by C++ API. For example, to change the "Property Mapping" setting shown as attached image.

May I know that is it possible to change the IFC translator setting by C++ API or have any other way?

Thank you for your time and help.

Hi,

You can get a translator list using following code:

GS::Array<API_IFCTranslatorIdentifier> ifcExportTranslators; lastErr = ACAPI_IFC_GetIFCExportTranslatorsList (ifcExportTranslators);

But, as I know, you cannot change the mapping setting of those translator.

HTH.
