Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) files and saves them in a
.upvc file. This file serves as input for the
Builder to create UPV models. To start, launch AdapterForIfc and select one or
multiple “Input Files”. “Output File” specifies the path for the
.upvc file, which includes all necessary information,
such as graphics and attributes, for generating UPV models with
UniversalPlantViewer Builder. AdapterForIfc can also be started in command line
