Force the IFC file to be imported regardless of an existing corresponding Revit file.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.IFC
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)

Syntax

public bool ForceImport { get; set; }

Public Property ForceImport As Boolean
	Get
	Set

public:
property bool ForceImport {
	bool get ();
	void set (bool value);
}

member ForceImport : bool with get, set

Property Value

Boolean

Remarks

If this value is true (default), we will perform the import even if the existing corresponding Revit file is up-to-date. If this value is false, then we will re-use an existing RVT file if it is up-to-date. The intention is for ForceImport to be false during host file open while reloading links, and true during link reload via the Manage Links API.
