DocumentVersion

Class

Description:
This class uniquely identifies an edition of a given document.

Remarks:

DocumentVersion consists of two parts - a GUID and an integer. The GUID is updated as new elements are created in the document, but it is not necessarily changed whenever any individual change is made to the document. The integer is updated when the document is saved.

The GUID will change as changes are made to a model, so it should not be treated as a static value.

This class does not contain any time information - you cannot compare two DocumentVersions and know which document is newer. It can be used to tell whether a document has changed since it was last inspected. See GetDocumentVersion()

DocumentVersion Class Members:

Name	Description	Inherited From
IsValidObject	Specifies whether the .NET object represents a valid Revit entity.
NumberOfSaves	The number of times the document has been saved. The save number and GUID are both necessary to uniquely identify a document version.
VersionGUID	The GUID portion of the DocumentVersion. The GUID is updated when changes are made to the document, but may not update with every change to the document. The GUID and save number are both necessary to uniquely identify a document version.

Name	Description	Inherited From
Dispose	Releases all resources used by the DocumentVersion
Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object )	Object
GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object )	Object
GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object )	Object
IsEqual	Checks whether two DocumentVersions are identical. They are identical if both the GUID and number of saves are equal. If two DocumentVersions are identical, they come from the same document, with the same set of changes.
ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object )	Object
