The ImporterIFCUtils type exposes the following members.

Name | Description | |
---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | CreateEmptyFamily | Creates an empty family of a given category. |
![]() ![]() | GetLocalFileName | Get the local file name, including the path, corresponding to a linked IFC file. This will create a local copy of the IFC file if necessary. |

This class contains special API utilities needed to enable the implementation of the client application for IFC import. Some of these utilities will be needed temporarily while the code for IFC import is migrated into the export client. These temporary interfaces are likely to change in upcoming Revit releases.
