IExternal |
Interface class for external server of ExternalServices.BuiltInExternalServices.ExternalDataManagerService.
Implementation guidelines:
Each method is called on the Revit API thread to avoid blocking the UI for
prolonged periods. Heavy work should be off-loaded to background threads
whenever possible.
All strings returned by functions must be localized.
