Sometimes you need your add-in to operate only in the presence of a particular Update Release of Revit due to the presence of specific fixes or compatible APIs. The following sample code demonstrates a technique to determine if the Revit version is any Update Release after the initial known Revit release.
| Code Region: Use VersionBuild to identify if your add-in is compatible |
|---|
public void GetVersionInfo(Autodesk.Revit.ApplicationServices.Application app)
{
// 20110309_2315 is the datecode of the initial release of Revit 2012
if (app.VersionNumber == "2012" &&
String.Compare(app.VersionBuild, "20110309_2315") > 0)
{
TaskDialog.Show("Supported version",
"This application supported in this version.");
}
else
{
TaskDialog dialog = new TaskDialog("Unsupported version.");
dialog.MainIcon = TaskDialogIcon.TaskDialogIconWarning;
dialog.MainInstruction = "This application is only supported in Revit 2012 UR1 and later.";
dialog.Show();
}
}
