Hi,There are still a lot of V8 installation in the world, so I would like to extend some Elements with DG in V8. There is a sample “DGExamples” of low quality (unused functions, magic texts, link issues, etc.) as documentation. After reading and understanding (hopefully) the core of this sample, I got these few lines to add something to an existing element:
if (SUCCESS == mdlAssoc_getElementDescr(NULL, &ulFilePos, ullSchaleElmId, pModelRef, TRUE)) { ElementRef ElmRef = mdlModelRef_getElementRef(pModelRefReal, ulFilePos); if (NULL != ElmRef) { Bentley::Building::Elements::BuildingEditElemHandle beeh(ElmRef, pModelRef); std::wstring _catalogTypeName; std::wstring _catalogInstanceName; _catalogTypeName = L"Door"; _catalogInstanceName = L"x_Single Flush Panel"; beeh.GetCatalogCollection().InsertDataGroupCatalogInstance(_catalogTypeName, _catalogInstanceName); beeh.GetCatalogCollection().UpdateInstanceDataDefaults(L"Door"); //std::wstring const itemXPath = L"Door/Door/@DoorMaterial"; //std::wstring const itemValue = L"Wood"; //CCatalogSchemaItemT* pSchemaItem = NULL; //if (NULL != (pSchemaItem = beeh.GetCatalogCollection().FindDataGroupSchemaItem(itemXPath))) // pSchemaItem->SetValue(itemValue); nRetErfolg = beeh.Rewrite();; } }
This is just to test, and yes, ElementHandle and ModelRefP are valid, and I know, I uses magic-text, too
Beeh seems to contain something, and beeh.GetCatalogCollection() does not return NULL or something funny.
But InsertDataGroupCatalogInstance() will throw a really heave exception with memory violation at 0x05.
Seems there is missing some initialization, but I did not find something in the help or sample.
What could I do?
25 Days and no response from Bentley...Robert Hook Dis you know who from the buildings-team could help?

Hi Volker Hüfner,
The assigned Forum moderator(s) normally pick up on Unresponded or Unanswered posts on a regular basis (typically one or more times a day).
I will ask the product manager to see if a subject matter expert (SME) can review and respond to your post.
