IPointCloudEngineCreatePointCloudAccess Method

Implement this method to construct the IPointCloudAccess interface for the point cloud designated by the identifier. This method is called once during the creation of a PointCloudType.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.PointClouds
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)

Syntax

C++

Copy

IPointCloudAccess CreatePointCloudAccess(
	string identifier
)

Function CreatePointCloudAccess ( 
	identifier As String
) As IPointCloudAccess

IPointCloudAccess^ CreatePointCloudAccess(
	String^ identifier
)

abstract CreatePointCloudAccess : 
        identifier : string -> IPointCloudAccess

Parameters

identifier String: An identifier unique to the point cloud. This will be a file name if the engine was registered as file-based, or an arbitrary identifier if the engine is not file-based.

Return Value

IPointCloudAccess
The object that can be used to create iterators and interrogate the point cloud for its features.

Remarks

The instance of the returned IPointCloudAccess is then used by Revit to display instances of the point cloud in Revit graphics and in the user interface.
