To run the ExIfcModelFiller sample application, please do the following:

1. Open the terminal window and go to the directory where the sample binary file is allocated:
   • For Windows® platforms: <IFC_DIR>\exe\<version>
   • For Non-Windows platforms: <IFC_DIR>/bin/<version>

   <IFC_DIR> is a directory where you unpacked the IFC SDK archive.

   To determine your <version> parameter, please see the appropriate section in the Download IFC SDK topic.

2. Run the sample with appropriate parameters:

   
               ExIfcModelFiller <destination file>
             

   destination file

   A full name to the output .ifc file to be created. This file contains the model and its entities created by the application.

The picture shows the application output when the command is not correct (a) and the resulting output after the application correctly finishes (b).

Here is the content of the generated .ifc file:
