I wasn't aware that in the 2015 version of the Revit SDK we woun't have the RevitLookup.
Thanks for upgrading it Jeremy

Dear Andrei,

Thank you for the appreciation... my pleasure entirely :-)

Cheers, Jeremy.

Hello Jeremy.

Why is it that RevitLookup is not longer included, now that a lot of developers use it?

The actual question:
I have tried to implement RevitLookup but without any success. I followed Troy Gates link:
http://revitcoaster.blogspot.dk/2014/06/revit-lookup-2015-addin.html
and has given me the following error when launching Revit 2015:
Revit cannot run the external application "RevitLookup"

System.IO.FileLoadExecption

Could not load file or assembly
......\RevitLookup.dll or one of its dependencies. Operation is not supported. (Exeption from HRESULT: 0x80131515)


I have also tried implementing your repository along with the files from Troy and still without any success. Can you give my any advice on how to fix this?

Hi again Jeremy.

Nevermind the question, I managed to get it working :)

Dear Kenneth,

RevitLookup is no longer included in the Revit SDK for the simple reason to make it easier for all users of it to add their improvements to it.

It is now hosted on GitHub, at

https://github.com/jeremytammik/RevitLookup

The current release is 2015.0.0.4:

https://github.com/jeremytammik/RevitLookup/releases/tag/2015.0.0.4

By coincidence, a new enhancement was added just today.

This enhancement is not included in the latest release.

To get the latest and greatest, simply clone the master branch.

I hope this clarifies.

Cheers, Jeremy.

Dear Kenneth,

Thank you for the confirmation and congratulations on getting it up and running.

Cheers, Jeremy.

Hi Jeremy,

Is there a way to target NET Framework 4.5 in visual C# 2010?

Cheers.

Sorry I've found something..

Hi Jeremy,

I followed your instructions on how to migrate Revit Lookup to 2015, and I get around 80 errors. Some of the classes that were not recognized are "WallFoundation", "ParameterElement", "SharedParameterElement",etc. I replaced the RevitAPI.dll and RevitAPIUI.dll references and I changed the .NET framework to 4.5. Can you please help me out with this.

Thanks in advance,
Peace

Dear Naji,

I just updated RevitLookup to compile with Revit 2016.

To grab a version for Revit 2015, do not clone from the latest master.

Go to the list of releases instead, and grab the latest Revit 2015 version:

https://github.com/jeremytammik/RevitLookup/releases/tag/2015.0.0.8

Cheers, Jeremy.

Hi again Jeremy,

Never mind the question, I got it up and working.
Thank you for upgrading it :)

Cheers

Congratulations!

And: I was faster :-)

Cheers, Jeremy.
