Hello Everyone,
I have a question regarding IfcDistributionElement. I need a ProxyElement, that is a subclass of IfcDistributionElement and not a subclass of IfcBuiltElement.
Can I use just IfcDistributionElement for that? Without any type? Are there any alternatives?
In the Schema (https://ifc43-docs.standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4x3/HTML/lexical/IfcDistributionElement.htm) it says:
Direct instantiation of IfcDistributionElement without an assigned subtype of IfcDistributionElementType provides the meaning of a distribution element proxy.
But also in the NOTE:
The entity is marked as deprecated for instantiation - will be made ABSTRACT in future releases.
If IfcDistributionElement is made abstract, what how can I create a proxy element as subclass of it?
I would be happy about some Input.
