RegisterUpdater Method (IUpdater, Boolean)

Updater Registry Register Updater(IUpdater, Boolean) Method

Registers an updater application-wide, which means the updater may get triggered in any open document.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)
Syntax 
public static void RegisterUpdater(
	IUpdater updater,
	bool isOptional
)

Parameters

updater IUpdater
Updater to be registered
isOptional Boolean
This argument controls whether the updater should be required next time a document is open in which the updater had been previously used. If a non-optional updater is not found (i.e. currently not registered), the end user will be presented with a warning and choices to resolve the situation.
Exceptions
Exception Condition
ArgumentException Updater with the the same Id has already been registered on the application level. -or- Updater's Id is not valid.
ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
InvalidOperationException Method is not allowed during execution of a dynamic update. -or- The updater's owner's AddIn does not match the currently active AddIn, i.e. IUpdater.GetUpdaterId().GetAddInId() differs from the addInId field in the manifest file of the currently executing external application.
Remarks
By registering an updater application-wide, any previous registration explicitly made for particular documents will be voided. That means the updater will no longer be connected with just those documents, and the methodIsUpdaterRegistered(id,document) will also return False. Consequently, any attempt to either register or unregister this updater to (or from, respectively) a document will cause an exception to be thrown.
