    Exceptions
    ExceptionDescription
    Api is not in an initialized state. You can get current state from EPLAN.Harness.API.HpdApi.Status property. If API is uninitialized, you can initialize it by calling EPLAN.Harness.API.HpdApi.Init method. If API is in failed state, you can not resurrect it.
    The object is in invalid state. Obtain a new one.
    Thrown when the type of part can not be placed by the method.
    Thrown when placing this part failed.
    Thrown when both edge points do not lie on one part of path.
    Thrown when edge points do not lie side by side.
    Remarks

    Controls points have to be neighboring.

    Example
    This example shows how to place a rapid capacitor on a wire.
    /// Obtain workspace beforehand and open for writing.
    Workspace workspace = ...
    workspace.Open(false, false);
    
    // Special component definition.
    RapidCapacitorDefinition definition = new RapidCapacitorDefinition();
    definition.Color = Color.Aqua;
    
    // Obtain wire from workspace
    OccWsWire wire = workspace.GetAllOccurrences<OccWsWire>().FirstOrDefault(occ => occ.Name.ToString() == "wire1");
    
    // Obtain controls points from wire.
    List<IControlPoint> controlPoints = wire.GetAllControlPoints().ToList();
    IControlPoint firstPoint = controlPoints.FirstOrDefault(c => c.Name.ToString() == "occ_1");
    IControlPoint secondPoint = t.FirstOrDefault(c => c.Name.ToString() == "occ_2");
    
    // Position of the rapid special component.
    TransformProperty<LengthProperty> position = new TransformProperty<LengthProperty>
    (
    	new LengthProperty(-50, Unit.Millimeter),
    	new LengthProperty(120, Unit.Millimeter),
    	new LengthProperty(70, Unit.Millimeter)
    );
    
    // Place attached part to occurrence.
    workspace.PlaceRapidCapacitor(definition, wire, firstPoint, secondPoint, position);
