API - C# - HoleRecognitionCylinders

[maurizio_manzi]

Hello,

does someone have an example for using HoleRecognitionCylinders() in a C# project ?

In VBA works fine:

Dim myModels As FMModels

Set myModels = doc.surfaces.HoleRecognitionCylinders(false, true)

But in C# I get an error message (...HoleRecognitionCylinders can't be used as a method...) for this code:

FMModels myModels

myModels = doc.surfaces.HoleRecognitionCylinders(false, true)

And next, in VBA I check if surface is a cylinder:

Dim myModel as FMModel

For Each myModel in myModels

If( TypeName(surf) = "IFMSurfaceCylinder") Then

...

But in C# we have not TypeName()

Best regards

For the purpose of the forum post (for other interested people):

The solution(s) here:

1. We must use [ ] istead of ( ), because . HoleRecognitionCylinders is not a method, it is a collection, so correct is:
   

Private void RecognizeCylinders()
{
  Foreach (FMSetup setup in doc.setups
  {
    Foreach(FMModel model in doc.surfaces.HoleRecognitionCylinders[false, true, 999888777] // <<<<<< *** with [ ]  instead of ( ) ***
    {
      //do something
    }
  }
}

And the second part....

If (surf is IFMSurfaceCylinder)
