Revit 2012 API has
now been enhanced to run with MS .NET 4.0 runtime |
|
Use Visual Studio
2010 with framework target of .NET 3.5 or 4.0 |
|
The existing
Addins compiled with VS 2008 will continue to work but will run outside debug
environment |
|
With changes to
the manifest file in Revit 2012, the INI file can no longer be user to load
an add-in. |
|
It is now
mandatory to provide a Vendor Id in the manifest file. The Vendor id is a
mandatory string which conforms to the Autodesk’s Registered Developer Symbol
(Or the RDS) standard. This Vendor Id should be a 4-character “prefix”
registered with Autodesk as per Autodesk’s vendor Id Standard. |
|
The
VendorDescription is an optional string which contains the vendor’s legal
name and other pertinent information.
This vendor description might show up in pop-ups error messages saying
whom to contact in case of errors. |
|
In your existing
plug-ins, you will have to re-reference the two Revit API dlls to make them
run in Revit 2012 using its API. |
