Runtime Error using Line.CreateBound

Anonymous — Thu, 19 Sep 2013 04:42:28 GMT

Hello

I am trying to create a Line in my Addin. When I run my code in that creates a line using the static function 'Line.CreateBound()' I get a runtime error. The error is:

Method not found 'Autodesk.Revit.DB.Line Autodesk.Revit.DB.Line.CreateBound(Autodesk.Revit.DB.XYZ, Autodesk.Revit.DB.XYZ)'.

Note the error occurs at runtime and not compile time. What is going wrong and how can I fix this?

Line pipeGeom = Line.CreateBound(strt, end); // error occurs here. Note strt and end are not null and are valid points
FamilyInstance pipe = doc.Create.NewFamilyInstance(pipeGeom, pipeSymbol, uiDoc.ActiveView);

Hi

Seems to me that you have built your add-in with newer Revit API than the Revit where you are running your add-in. The function you mentioned came to API a release or two ago.

Thanks for your reply 🙂 I think I have compiled the Addin using Revit 2013 or 2014. I am running the addin in Revit 2013 in a MEP project.

If Line.CreateBound() is not present in 2013 do you know how I create a line in 2013??

Yes...CreateBound() came in 2014.

I think we were using Document.Application.Create.NewLine() before new funtion(s).
