Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 2015.0.0.0 (2015.0.0.0)
Since: 2015

Syntax

C# 
bool IsResourceWellFormed(
	ExternalResourceReference extRef
)
Visual Basic 
Function IsResourceWellFormed ( _
	extRef As ExternalResourceReference _
) As Boolean
Visual C++ 
bool IsResourceWellFormed(
	ExternalResourceReference^ extRef
)

Parameters

extRef
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB ExternalResourceReference
The ExternalResourceReference to check.

Return Value

True if the ExternalResourceReference represents a well-formed resource. False otherwise.

Remarks

Different servers will have different requirements.

A server which loads references from a website might require that the reference map contain a key called "URL" and a value that is a valid URL.

A server which loads references from a network drive might require a key called "Drive" with a value that represents a drive name, plus a key called "Path" with a value that corresponds to a path relative to the root of the drive.

This function should not check that the resource exists on the server. It should only check that the resource is formatted correctly.
