This simple application displays the Revit file version without opening the file, simply by right-clicking.
RVT and RFA files are supported.
For RVT files, information about "Worksharing" is also displayed if enabled.
The command is integrated into the "Context Menu" via the Windows registry.
There are two ways to obtain the version:
-
Simply reading the file as text and searching for the xml attribute <product-version> (for RFA files)
-
Opening a file as OLE using the OpenMcdf library and reading a byte stream from BasicFileInfo (for RVT files)
The .Net Framework version: 4.7 (usually installed automatically with Revit).
