  [Class(typeof(Wall))] //Get only walls, also you can set [Category(BuiltInCategory.Walls)]
  public class MyWall : DbObject
  {
    [BuiltInParameter(BuiltInParameter.ALL_MODEL_INSTANCE_COMMENTS)] //Bind Revit builtin parameter "Comments" to property Comments
    public string Comments { get; set; }

    [ParameterName("Length")] //Bind Revit parameter "Length" to property Length
    public double Length { get; set; }

    public Result Execute(ExternalCommandData commandData, ref string message, ElementSet elements)
    {
      var uiApp = commandData.Application;
      var doc = uiApp.ActiveUIDocument.Document; //Get current document

      var context = DbContext.Create<MyContext>(doc); //Create context
