The InterferenceCodelessRules.dll contains logic that interprets the configuration file rules. Therefore, any changes to the configuration file are equivalent to a change in logic. If you modify either the configuration file or the CustomIFCRule defined in the configuration file, you must decide whether the software must reprocess existing clashes.

Back up the configuration file and any revisions. We recommend setting standard Windows permissions to Read for all users and to Modify for model administrators.

A new rule for a future modeling scenario has no existing clashes. If you modify a rule that has processing or ignored clashes, you choose whether or not the software reprocesses the clashes.

Reprocess a clash

  1. In Project Management, right-click the Interference Server node under the Model database, and then select Properties.

  2. If the Stop button is available, click it to stop the IFC process, and then wait until it finishes.

  3. Click Close, and then exit Project Management.

  4. Open the configuration file, and increment the version number in the CustomClashRules node. For example, if the current version is 01.00.00.00, increment the number as follows:

    <CustomClashRules Version="02.00.00.00"

    The software reprocesses clashes when a version changes.

  5. In Project Management, right-click the Interference Server node under the Model database, and select Properties to open the Interference Server Settings Dialog.

  6. Select Update new registered version... and then click Close.

  7. Click Start.

    The software displays a message box asking if you want to recheck the entire model while preserving the existing approved interferences.
