- Method Detail
  - isDuplicat
```
boolean isDuplicat(Parser parser,
                   Item item)
```
    Called if an item with an identical name is found.
    
    Parameters:
    
    item -
    
    Returns:
    
    true to add to the parse tree false to ignore
  - getDescription
```
java.lang.String getDescription()
```
  - getKey
```
java.lang.String getKey()
```
  - getName
```
java.lang.String getName()
```
  - getPageId
```
java.lang.String getPageId()
```
    Returns:
    
    The COBie tab name for the object
  - getSourceFile
```
java.lang.String getSourceFile()
```
    It is desirable to combine multiple COBie work books into a single import such as a s work book from the architectural model and one from the mechanical model. Items with the same name but different source files are assumed to be the same item and are merged
    
    Returns:
  - setSourceFile
```
void setSourceFile(java.lang.String sourceFile)
```
  - setGuidConversionFlag
```
void setGuidConversionFlag(boolean convert)
```
    Determines if the parser attempts to convert base 64 ids to GUIDs
    
    Parameters:
    
    convert -
  - setUniqueIdConversionFlag
```
void setUniqueIdConversionFlag(boolean convert)
```
    Revid uses a UniqueID for its internal object identifications. This is a GUID plus the 8 digit Hex Revit element ID. Revit uses a export GUID for most identity in most external representations. However the COBie toolkit exports the UniqueId. The UniqueId can be converted to the export GUID by Xoring the element id portion with the last 8 characters of the GUID.
    If this flag is set each external identifier is tested to determine if it is the UniqueID format and if it is, it is converted to the and export GUID.
    
    Parameters:
    
    convert -
  - skip
```
boolean skip(Parser parser,
             long flags)
```
    Called after the item is loaded but before it is added to a page.
    
    Returns:
    
    true causes the item to be discarded
  - getUniqueId
```
java.lang.String getUniqueId()
```
  - setUniqueId
```
void setUniqueId(java.lang.String uniqueIdentifier)
```
  - resolveRerefences
```
void resolveRerefences(Parser project,
                       long flags)
```
    Attempts to establish all the links specified in the various COBie sheet
    
    Parameters:
    
    project -
    
    flags -
  - update
```
void update(Item item)
```
    Merge two instances of an object
    Fields that are blank in the target object are updates with values for fields in the source object
    
    Parameters:
    
    item - The source object
  - isMatch
```
boolean isMatch()
```
    Used by the loader to indicate a match to an existing record in the target system
  - setMatch
```
void setMatch(boolean match)
```
  - export
```
void export(Exporter exporter)
```
    Exported representation of Item
