Application Events in VB

I do not work much in VB, but somebody recently asked how to subscribe to the Revit application events in that language. There is no VB sample for this in the Revit SDK samples, so I created the following little solution to demonstrate it.

The steps to create it are exactly the same as for a C# project, and were actually described in detail for both C# and VB in the post on Debugging a Revit Add-In, but here is the really short version:

• Create a new class library project
• Reference RevitAPI.dll
• Set its 'Copy Local' flag to false
• Derive your class from IExternalApplication
• Implement the member methods
