SetConstraints Method

Assign a new list of constraints to this definition.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 2015.0.0.0 (2015.0.0.0)
Since: 2012

Syntax

C# 
public void SetConstraints(
	IList<RebarShapeConstraint> constraints
)
Visual Basic 
Public Sub SetConstraints ( _
	constraints As IList(Of RebarShapeConstraint) _
)
Visual C++ 
public:
void SetConstraints(
	IList<RebarShapeConstraint^>^ constraints
)

Parameters

constraints
Type: System.Collections.Generic IList RebarShapeConstraint
A new list of constraints.

Remarks

Any existing constraints are discarded. The new constraints replace them. Any parameters driving the constraints must already be added with AddParameter().

If the Type is Arc or LappedCircle, the allowable constraint types are:

  • RebarShapeConstraintArcLength
  • RebarShapeConstraintRadius
  • RebarShapeConstraintDiameter
  • RebarShapeConstraintCircumference
  • RebarShapeConstraintSagittaLength
  • RebarShapeConstraintChordLength
At least two independent constraints must be specified. Overconstraining is supported.

If the Type is Spiral, the allowable constraints are:

  • RebarShapeConstraintRadius
  • RebarShapeConstraintDiameter
  • RebarShapeConstraintCircumference
At least one constraint must be specified.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentException One or more of the constraints is of a type not supported for this definition. -or- One or more of the constraints refers to a parameter that has not been added yet.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was NULL
