Syntax

public class RepeatingReferenceSource : IDisposable

The RepeatingReferenceSource type exposes the following members.

Properties

Name

Description


Public Property

The dimension count of the repeating reference array.


Public Property
IsValidObject

Specifies whether the .NET object represents a valid Revit entity.


Methods

Name

Description


Public Method

Releases all resources used by the RepeatingReferenceSource


Public Method

Equals

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object)


Public Method
GetBounds

Returns information about the boundaries of the repeating reference array.


Public Method
Static Member
GetDefaultRepeatingReferenceSource

Returns the default repeating reference source for a given element.


Public Method

GetHashCode

Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object)


Public Method
GetReference

Returns an individual repeating reference given by coordinates in the array, or . if there is no reference at the coordinates (for example if there is a hole in a divided surface.)


Public Method

GetType

Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object)


Public Method
Static Member

Determines whether an element has any repeating reference sources that can be used when creating component repeaters.


Public Method

ToString

Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object)


Remarks

The RepeatingReferenceSource class is the building block for setting up component repeaters. Repeating references are arranged in zero, one or two dimensional arrays. The RepeatingReferenceSource class represents this array of references and provides access to individual repeating references.

Note that there may be gaps in the array (for example a repeating reference source formed by a divided surface with holes, or is non-rectangular surface.)

Repeating reference sources are a property of an element. Only point elements, divided paths and divided surface elements support repeating reference sources. These element respectively have 0, 1 and 2 dimensional repeating references. Use the HasRepeatingReferenceSource() method to query whether an element supports repeating reference sources and the GetDefaultRepeatingReferenceSource() method to obtain a repeating reference source from a given element.

See the ComponentRepeater and ComponentRepeaterSlot classes for more information.
