VS:IFC AttachPset

.VectorScript|VectorScript ..VS:Function Reference|Function Reference ..VS:Function_Reference_Appendix|Appendix

Description

Attaches a property set to the object

FUNCTION IFC_AttachPset(
             hObject         :HANDLE;
             inStrPsetName   :STRING) : BOOLEAN;

def vs.IFC_AttachPset(hObject, inStrPsetName):
    return BOOLEAN

Parameters

hObject		HANDLE		Handle to object
inStrPsetName		STRING		of the pset

Return Value

TRUE on success, FALSE indicates failure – incorrect handle, the object has no IFC data, incorrect pset name.

Note that, in order to attach the desired pset, you have to attach IFC entity before.

Example

Assume we want an object to be exported as a space with attached Pset_SpaceFireSafetyRequirements (first we have to attach IfcSpace with mandatory and enumerational properties and then the pset):

VectorScript

PROCEDURE Test;
VAR
	hSpace : HANDLE;
	ok : BOOLEAN;
BEGIN
	ok := IFC_SetIFCEntity(hSpace, 'IfcSpace');
	ok := IFC_SetEntityProp(hSpace, 'CompositionType', 'ELEMENT');
	ok := IFC_SetEntityProp(hSpace, 'InteriorOrExteriorSpace', 'INTERIOR');
	ok := IFC_AttachPset(hSpace, 'Pset_SpaceFireSafetyRequirements');
END;

RUN(Test);

Python

hSpace = vs.FSActLayer()
ok = vs.IFC_SetIFCEntity(hSpace, 'IfcSpace')
ok = vs.IFC_SetEntityProp(hSpace, 'CompositionType', 'ELEMENT')
ok = vs.IFC_SetEntityProp(hSpace, 'InteriorOrExteriorSpace', 'INTERIOR')
ok = vs.IFC_AttachPset(hSpace, 'Pset_SpaceFireSafetyRequirements')
