Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure Class: RebarConstraintsManager

RebarConstraintsManager.ApplyRebarConstraints

Method

Description:
Returns true if constraints were applied to rebar with success.

Remarks:

ShapeDriven : The input constraints belong to other rebar in a (different) similar host. Only constraints of type ToHostFace or ToCover are considered. The method modifies the constraints' target references with their correspondants in current host(s). The modified constraints are set in current rebar. The method will fail : if there exists at least one ToOtherRebar constraint; if corresponding target references in current host(s) are not supplied or found.

FreeForm : The constraints will not be applied and the method will return false.

The two arrays go hand in hand : they must have the same size; the correspondant of oldReference at index x is found in the other array at the same index x.

) As Boolean

public:
bool ApplyRebarConstraints(
	IList<RebarConstraint^>^ constraintsToApply, 
	IList<Reference^>^ oldTargets, 
	IList<Reference^>^ newTargets
)

member ApplyRebarConstraints :

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
constraintsToApply	IList	Represent the new constraints to be applied to rebar.
oldTargets	IList	Represent the old target references.
newTargets	IList	Represent the new target references.

Return Value

Type	Description
Boolean	Returns true if the constraints were applied succesfully, false otherwise

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentException	The constraintsToApply should be for handles with default behavior.
ArgumentNullException	A non-optional argument was null
InvalidOperationException	The RebarConstraintsManager does not manage a valid Rebar element.
