RevitAPI: 不支持ElementClassFilter的那些类

我们使用ElementClassFilter来过滤Element的时候，经常会碰到一些异常，例如下面的:

Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions.ArgumentException: Input type(Autodesk.Revit.DB.DetailLine) is of an element type that exists in the API, but not in Revit's native object model. Try using Autodesk.Revit.DB.CurveElement instead, and then postprocessing the results to find the elements of interest.

很庆幸，异常里面已经给出了指导意见，于是，以DetailLine作为例子，我们可以这样来过滤出我们想要的DetailLine:

var lineFilter = 
    new ElementClassFilter( typeof( CurveElement));
FilteredElementCollector filteredElements = 
    new FilteredElementCollector (familyDoc );
filteredElements = filteredElements.WherePasses( lineFilter);
foreach (CurveElement element in filteredElements )
{
    DetailLine detailLine = element as DetailLine;
    if ( detailLine != null)
    {
        var curv = detailLine .Location as LocationCurve;
        var lin = curv. Curve as Line;
        if ( lin != null)
        {
            // do what you like
        }
    }
}

经过一番研究，我把所有ElementClassFilter不支持的类以及替代的类列在了下表中：

Structure.AreaReinforcementCurve	CurveElement
CurveByPoints	CurveElement
DetailCurve	CurveElement
DetailArc	CurveElement
DetailEllipse	CurveElement
DetailLine	CurveElement
DetailNurbSpline	CurveElement
ModelCurve	CurveElement
ModelArc	CurveElement
ModelEllipse	CurveElement
ModelHermiteSpline	CurveElement
ModelLine	CurveElement
ModelNurbSpline	CurveElement
SymbolicCurve	CurveElement
Architecture.Room	SpatialElement
Area	SpatialElement
Mechanical.Space	SpatialElement
Architecture.RoomTag	SpatialElementTag
AreaTag	SpatialElementTag
Mechanical.SpaceTag	SpatialElementTag
AnnotationSymbolType	FamilySymbol
AreaTagType	FamilySymbol
Architecture.RoomTagType	FamilySymbol
Mechanical.SpaceTagType	FamilySymbol
Structure.TrussType	FamilySymbol
AnnotationSymbol	FamilyInstance
Mullion	FamilyInstance
Panel	FamilyInstance
Architecture.Fascia	HostedSweep
Architecture.Gutter	HostedSweep
SlabEdge	HostedSweep
CombinableElement	a combination of GenericForm and GeomCombination

注意: Element是一个特例, 它也不能在ElementClassFilter中使用，其中一个我常用的替代方案是这样的，用到了逻辑或LogicalOrFilter：

new LogicalOrFilter (new ElementIsElementTypeFilter( false), 
    new ElementIsElementTypeFilter (true ));
