Example

This example demonstrates how to use the LocalLayer class and E2.AddLayer method in order to add a local KML file to ArcGIS Explorer as a Layer. This example sets a minimal amount of properties, relying mostly on default values. The example assumes that the current item has a member variable _taskUI pointing to the current TaskUI.
C#Copy Code
LocalLayer kmlLayer = new LocalLayer(); 
kmlLayer.Workspace = @"C:\Temp\MyData";  // Set the folder containing the KML data. 
kmlLayer.Dataset = @"MyData.kml";  // Set the KML file name. 
kmlLayer.Connect(this._taskUI.E2);  // Connect the layer to the data. 
if (kmlLayer.IsConnected)  // If the layer is connected, then add it. 
{ 
  this._taskUI.E2.AddLayer(kmlLayer); 
}

Dim kmlLayer As LocalLayer = New LocalLayer()
kmlLayer.Workspace = "C:\Temp\MyData" ' Set the folder containing the KML data.
kmlLayer.Dataset = "MyData.kml" ' Set the KML file name.
kmlLayer.Connect(Me._taskUI.E2) ' Connect the layer to the data.
If kmlLayer.IsConnected Then
  Me._taskUI.E2.AddLayer(kmlLayer)
End If
