Trying to call CreateMeanCurve() in C#

I'm flummoxed here. I'm simply trying to get the mean curve between 2 curves in Grasshopper, I couldn't find a component so thought it would be a quick C# script:

private void RunScript(Curve curveA, Curve curveB, ref object meanCurve)
{
Curve localCurve = Curve.CreateMeanCurve(curveA, curveB);
meanCurve = localCurve;
}

But no matter what I try the result is a null object. No errors, just no result.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi Dave,

you're flummoxed for a good reason. The Mean Curve algorithm was only written for Rhino5. It does not exist in Rhino4, so any script that uses that method will only work while running inside Rhino5.

There's quite a few of these cases in the SDK and we did not do a good job of documenting them. Somehow the notion that the Rhino4 SDK is only 'for a few more weeks/months' fuelled our lazy-ness.
