Summary

I wish that the Product object could also have some ifcElement properties like Tag and ObjectType

Solution

In version 1002 we added these two properties ("Tag" , "ObjectType" ) like below
vdIFCProduct.PropertiesGroup("IFC_ELEMENT_PROPS") collection
NOTE: these properties are also exported to IFC object object types when saving as IFC format.

vdIFCProduct obj;
vdIFCProperties ifcprops = obj.PropertiesGroup.FindName("IFC_ELEMENT_PROPS");
if (ifcprops == null) return;
object value = ifcprops.Properties["Tag"];
if(!(value is string)) return;
return (string)value;
