Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IModeler. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
Remarks
Use this method instead of built-in IModeler::CreateBodyFromCyl If you need to preserve entity ids as the body generated using the built-in method won't allow to set user id, which means any reference geometry generated in relation to cylinder entities will become dangling upon rebuild
