Description

This function sets a value to the selected property of the selected pset.

FUNCTION IFC_SetPsetProp(
             hObject          :HANDLE;
             inStrPsetName    :STRING;
             inStrPropName    :STRING;
             inStrPropValue   :STRING) : BOOLEAN;

def vs.IFC_SetPsetProp(hObject, inStrPsetName, inStrPropName, inStrPropValue):
    return BOOLEAN

Parameters

hObject		HANDLE		Handle to object
inStrPsetName		STRING		Name of the pset
inStrPropName		STRING		Name of the property
inStrPropValue		STRING		Value of the property

Return Value

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

Example

Assume we have a wall and we want in export to be marked as load-bearing, non-combustible and to put a reference ‘IW-01’, also we want to set thermal transmit-tance value of 0.5 – we need to attach Pset_WallCommon and set its properties ( LoadBearing, Combustible, Reference, ThermalTransmittance) as needed:

VectorScript

PROCEDURE Test;
VAR
	hWall : HANDLE;
	ok : BOOLEAN;
BEGIN
	hWall := FSActLayer;
	ok := IFC_SetIFCEntity(hWall, 'IfcWallStandardCase');
	ok := IFC_AttachPset(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon');
	ok := IFC_SetPsetProp(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon', 'LoadBearing', '1');
	ok := IFC_SetPsetProp(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon', 'Combustible', '0');
	ok := IFC_SetPsetProp(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon', 'Reference', 'IW-01');
	ok := IFC_SetPsetProp(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon', 'ThermalTransmittance', '0.5');
END;

RUN(Test);

Python

hWall = vs.FSActLayer()
ok = vs.IFC_SetIFCEntity(hWall, 'IfcWallStandardCase')
ok = vs.IFC_AttachPset(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon')
ok = vs.IFC_SetPsetProp(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon', 'LoadBearing', '1')
ok = vs.IFC_SetPsetProp(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon', 'Combustible', '0')
ok = vs.IFC_SetPsetProp(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon', 'Reference', 'IW-01')
ok = vs.IFC_SetPsetProp(hWall, 'Pset_WallCommon', 'ThermalTransmittance', '0.5')
