API – OMF SDK
§AecModelerBody
§Preparation for changing over to Autodesk Shape Manager bodies in the future. No changes required yet and AModeler still used.
§You will note many new APIs that support AecModelerBody, but are not hooked up.
§Endcap Cleanup updates
§APIs for component overrides per wall
§Wall System updates

This will be information only at this stage.  ACA is planning to move to ASM (Autodesk Shape Manager) in future releases. In 2010 OMF SDK, you will probably notice a new class called AecModelerBody.  This is the wrapper for ASM (Autodesk Shape Manager) as well as the old modeler body. This APIs have been sprinkled all over the SDK, all the classes that formally supported bodies now have this API in place. This is preparation to support ASM. But they are not hooked up yet. Many of the APIs are there at the moment but they wont help you much at the moment. AecModelerBody is like a bridge class that contains API’s to convert from one modeler body to another.

Endcap cleanup updates are also included. For cleanups, the APIs are component overrides per wall.  When a pair of walls are in clean up situation, they will have the overrides attached to them and these are also applied to joints as updates and so the intersection of the walls are actually managed by the wall system graph.
